We need your help! Learn more about NKTA and the Kitsap Forest and Bay Project at a community presentation with dessert and information on May 21 at the Poulsbo City Hall at 7 p.m.

NKTA is a young organization created by a group of people who use the myriad of trails on public and private lands in North Kitsap. NKTA is teaming up with multiple organizations to help preserve 7,000 acres and trails of Pope land, the Kitsap Forest and Bay Project.  There is less than a year left on the "option" to purchase the property and we need your help.

One of NKTA's goals for this year is to connect members with volunteer opportunities they enjoy, that support trails. We have organized working committees: trail building and maintenance, events, water trails, membership, communications and Sound to Olympics Trail. There is an active group working on the Kitsap Forest and Bay project and planning presentations and public outreach. If you prefer to volunteer occasionally, helping build trails or with an event is a great way to help out. Send us an This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
