  • Chapter 4: Destinations – Utilitarian And
    Jefferson County Non-Motorized Transportation and Recreational Trails Plan 2010 Chapter 4: Destinations – Utilitarian and Recreational 2010 Plan Update: Chapter 4 Destinations provides a broad picture of Jefferson County: where people live, work, go to school, shop, and recreate and the locations of tourist facilities and significant public facilities. This information is intended to inform decisions about connecting these destinations with non-motorized transportation facilities. It is not intended as an up-to-date guide. While Chapter 4 has not been updated, it still performs its intended function. This chapter has been retained in the original 2002 Plan format. County, City, Port, School District, State, Federal, and private enterprises have developed an extensive number of commercial, employment, business, educational, recreational, and other public facilities within the County. This extensive array of facilities is of interest to non-motorized transportation and recreational trail users. This chapter describes the most significant destinations. 4.1 Schools The Brinnon, Chimacum, Port Townsend, Queets-Clearwater, Quilcene, Quillayute Valley, and Sequim School Districts provide educational services to Jefferson County residents. Brinnon School District The school district collects students by bus within the district’s service area – which includes all of Brinnon and the areas along US-101 from the Mason County line to Mt Walker and transports them to the central school site. Upper grade students are bused to Quilcene High School. The district operates 6 school bus routes beginning at 6:35-9:00 am and ending at 3:46-4:23 pm for the collection and distribution of different school grades and after school programs.

    Olympic Peninsula Chapter Washington Native Plant Society October 2018 through January 2019 Fall Newsletter To promote the appreciation and conservation of Washington’s native plants and their habitats through study, education and advocacy Do you know what the earth meditates upon in autumn? (Why not give a medal to the first golden leaf?) from Pablo Neruda’s The Book of Questions…. The summer brought an exploration of wildflowers in the higher places. Fall brings a more reflective mood as the cool weather and decreasing light approach. This newsletter is intended as a general summation of what we as a chapter plan to do over the next few months and what continues to inspire us. Pay attention to the trip leaders and authors for updates on specifics. FALL EVENTS Duckabush River Short Trails. Saturday October 20, 2018. Meet at the Quilcene Ranger Station at 9:00 AM to carpool. We will explore the Interrorem Nature trail, an historical interpretive loop trail, before starting down the Rang- er Hole Trail, 0.8-mile-long, which meanders through forest until the last 500' where it descends steeply to the riv- er. Then we'll drive to Collins Campground for lunch along the river. After lunch we'll drive to the 0.8-mile-long Murhut Falls trail, through second growth forest to old growth forest around the falls. Bring your hand lens, field guides, and a lunch. Note: This is a weather-dependent trip. Please let me know if you are interested so I can notify you if there is a change of plans.

    Olympic Peninsula Chapter Washington Native Plant Society February-April 2018 Newsletter To promote the appreciation and conservation of Washington’s native plants and their habitats through study, education and advocacy PROGRAM Tuesday February 20, 2018. David Peter, Ecologist, US Forest Service PNW Research Station, Olympia. Prairies of the Olympic Peninsula: A mapping presentation. Port Townsend Community Center in Up- town Port Townsend at 620 Tyler St. Social time at 6:30 pm; program begins at 7:00. Where did Pacific Northwest Prairies come from and where have they all gone? What are they doing in this land of tall timber? And, what is a “prairie” anyway? I will talk about these and other imponderables to build deeper understanding of these unique cultural artifacts. Northwest prairies hold a special place in the landscape, biodiversity and history of the Pacific Northwest, yet only a narrow slice of the public is aware of their existence. To increase awareness and to facili- tate prairie conservation, they must be mapped and described. It is to this end that Stan Graham and I have undertaken this project. In this talk I will present our work to date—our current map, and descriptions of some of the prairies. We think you will be surprised at just how diverse these places are in terms of geography and vegetation. How to map, and how to define these features, as it turns out, is not a simple endeavor. Even knowing where to draw a line defining the edge of a prairie is an interesting exercise. Prairies didn’t just end where the forest started—they often faded, through savannas and woodlands, into forests, creating a myriad of interesting habitats that are now quite rare.
