There is no PWB Coffee Clutch in the month of May. (We celebrated at the Exhibitor Mixer at the Home Expo.)
If anyone wants to join us up in the KBA Conference room 9- 10 am- Thursday May 14th - we can make it a party!

Huge shoutout to the students at West Sound Technical Skills Center who didn’t just talk about building—they showed up and built something real. A full play structure. From the ground up.
And then… the best part.
We turned it over to the littles. 🎨
Watching those kids grab paintbrushes and make it their own? That’s the magic right there.
This is what workforce development actually looks like.
Skills being learned. Pride being built. Community coming together.
Today’s students. Tomorrow’s builders. And a whole lot of future memories being made on that play structure.

Today is day 2 of 3 for the Peninsula Home and Remodel Expo! Last night's Exhibitor Mixer was a BLAST! Thank you to our KBA Membership Ambassadors Crew showing up. We blew through all of the pizzas in 5 minutes and moved the party out into the hall. (About 60 people). Big Thanks to Myesha Mosley from Ms. MyMy Presents for bringing her special selfie camera and getting a bunch of these pics! She will have it out at the Car Show today (out by Food trucks) with Sunset Contracting LLC .

Inside, you’ll find 25+ ready-to-use templates covering:
• Residential construction and remodeling contracts
• Subcontractor and supplier agreements
• Lien waivers and payment documents

Had the opportunity to hear Washington State Senator, Jessica Bateman speak on housing at the Building Industry Association of Washington (BIAW) State Board Meeting today.
Always appreciate hearing directly from leadership on where housing policy is headed—and the real challenges we’re all working through. These conversations matter if we’re serious about creating solutions that actually work for our communities.
