Approximately 200 BSD students, staff, families and community members participated in be Bremerton last Saturday making this one of our biggest be Bremerton events ever!
be Bremerton: A Day of Service is a districtwide service event to show the Bremerton community and the City of Bremerton our thanks for their tremendous support of the Bremerton School District and our students.
Volunteers (including Bremerton Mayor Greg Wheeler, BSD interim Superintendent Donna Colosky, and incoming Superintendent Dr. James Crawford) gathered at Evergreen Rotary Park early last Saturday morning to pick up free event t-shirts and gather supplies before heading downtown to pick up trash, pull weeds and sweep sidewalks in preparation for Bremerton's Armed Forces Day festival and parade! Afterward, lunch was provided for all be Bremerton volunteers by Seaside Church!
We invite you to watch the event slide show and view all event photos here. If you attended the event and have photos to share, please email them to Communications@BremertonSchools.org.

Do I have to sign-up?
No - but it is strongly encouraged. It allows us to have all of the groups established before the event which expedites the check-in process at the event.
Can I sign-up a team for a student club or a group of friends?
Yes! Let those on your team know to list their team or friends’ names when they sign-up online.
If I don’t sign-up can I still participate?
Yes! Just show up and we’ll assign you to an existing team!
Can elementary students participate?
Yes! We ask that all elementary students be accompanied by an adult (which is why there is a separate sign-up for elementary families).

Volunteer check-in starts at 8:30 (Team Leaders are asked to arrive by 8). The event will wrap-up at 12 noon if you choose to stay for lunch. If not, you’ll be on your way by 11:15ish! See the complete schedule here.
