SUMMER 2021 Dear Island Residents, We are greatly looking forward to another great summer season with the Park District. With new phases allowing more expanded programming, we are excited to offer increased recreational programming, including Family Beach Swim. Due to our current phasing, we are able to accommodate larger class and camp sizes, while still having safety at the forefront of our operations. Whether you are looking forward to themed All-Day Explorer Camps, getting fresh air outside, staying healthy, or learning a new skill, we have something for you this summer season. We again would like to thank all our volunteers, part-time, seasonal, and full-time staff for their hard work, agility, and passion. We ask you to continue supporting our community and staff by continuing to follow our safety guidelines for parks and recreation programs. Warmly, With the ongoing COVID-19 conditions, the Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District has had to remain alert and flexible, with programming guidelines changing weekly. As a result of consistently evolving health guidelines, the Park District has decided to move the distribution of the recreation program catalog to an electronic file. Terry Lande, Executive Director The decision to move Recreation Connection to a fully online platform allows the agency the ability to adapt our programs to fit changing government ordinances, while also reducing costs in this challenging time. A limited amount of hard copies will be available for pick-up at the Aquatic Center during operational hours. The online catalog will be updated weekly to reflect the most updated information. 2 | SUMMER 2021

Community Spotlight The Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District believes that employees and community partners are some of our most valuable resources. The meaningful work and outstanding commitments demonstrated by these people highlight what makes our Park District such an outstanding community asset. Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District Sakai Park Project Update An interview with Trails Coordinator Sean Smith Sell QUESTION: How was the park and trail system designed for Sakai Park? ANSWER: The trail layout in Sakai Park was designed with two parts in mind. The top section near the entrance was designed to be a quarter-mile track; it is meant to be a running loop, as well as an easier, more accessible walking area in the middle of Winslow. The second major part is the lower trail that descends into a more wooded area, which leads to the pond, which is showcased by a trail that loops halfway around. The upper trail has a base that consists of an inch and a half layer of basalt rock that will be covered with wood chips, similar to the materials we use in our playgrounds. It will be a softer surface for running and walking. The lower trail has the same base material, which has been compacted, and is ready and accessible for use around the perimeter of the pond. The wood chips used in this section of the trail were all made on site by recycling limbs and trees that were cleared for the trail, that way we are re-purposing the natural resources that were originally here. QUESTION: How does Sakai Park tie into the overall trail system? ANSWER: The Sakai Park trail system will eventually be one of the connecting points in the Sound to Olympics trail. It currently starts on the other side of Highway 305 and will go from the Puget Sound on the east side of the island all the way to the western side of the island with views of the Olympic mountains. The goal is for it to eventually serve as more of a transportation corridor, in addition to it being just a nice walk through the woods. There are more trails in the design process being mapped out that will serve as a transportation corridor from the middle of Winslow. People will be able to bypass roads and busier sidewalks to get to and from the high school, Aquatic Center, shopping areas, or to other parks. Getting off the road can be safer and less congested; it also provides the health benefits of simply being in nature. There is an extensive trail system in the middle of downtown Winslow, and by using this connection point, residents who live near downtown will have the option not to drive to the Grand Forest or further parks to get out in wilderness areas.

QUESTION: What is unique about this trail construction? ANSWER: There are extensive amounts of boardwalks and smaller bridges in this park, which for the length of trail, might be the highest density of anywhere on the island. There are four different bridges and one boardwalk that is around 87 feet long located in just half a mile of trail, not including the upper link. On the walk down from the upper loop, there are also small Redwood trees that were planted by a volunteer group of first graders a couple years ago, which are now growing into larger trees and will make a great evergreen addition for the site. Originally, this land was farmland, but the secondary growth we have now is mostly Alder trees. Eventually, these Alders will age-out and compost and succession species, like maples and evergreens, will make up our forests in this area. QUESTION: How has trails crew been involved in this project, and what experience have they gained? ANSWER: Trails Crew started out clearing out the paths in the trail corridor, and then the construction crew came to start building our boardwalks. They used a variety of power tools and learned how to work safely around machinery. We were using an excavator to drill out piers for the boardwalk and the bridges, so they were helpful during that portion, as well as in assisting with putting the boardwalks together, putting down the stringers and all the deck boards, and making the handrails. Due to many of the Trails Crew members staying on the island due to COVID-19, we were able to keep them on and working for quite a bit longer than the usual season, thanks to the support of the Bainbridge Island Parks Foundation. Because we had our crew together for a longer period of time, they were able to assist me in putting the finishing touches on the boardwalks and help with more construction of this trail, in addition to an assortment of other projects in different parks. QUESTION: Favorite part of working on this project? ANSWER: My favorite part of this project was during the initial clearing. In the middle of the lower trail area, we discovered this large pond that no one really knew about. We were able to create access to this unique water feature in the heart of the island that the community did not really know existed. It has been exciting to see people explore the space while we are working and be amazed by this hidden gem in the middle of the island. 8 | SUMMER 2021
