Nesika Bay by Bob Rosenbladt

Don't forget your 2024 NK Photo Calendar, a Poulsbo Lions fundraiser, for your stocking stuffers this year! At $10 each, they're a bargain - AND they're 13 months instead of the regular 12.

These community supporters have calendars available: Maritime Museum, Fluff N Stuff, Red Apple Poulsbo, Coast Do It Best Hardware, Farmers Insurance on Jensen Way, Hansville Grocery and the Historical Society.

 

Proceeds benefit OUR community in the way of eye exams, eyeglasses, hearing aids, improving parks, and helping kids and veterans.
