Each year, Windermere Real Estate agents and staff from more than 200 offices across the Western United States gather their tools and take on a daylong project to make improvements in their local communities.

This year, Windermere’s Bremerton, Silverdale, and Poulsbo associates were at the Kitsap County Community Resources building, located at 1201 Park Ave. in Bremerton. They painted, cleaned, replaced flooring, gardened and assembled toys. The Hood Canal associates were at the Brinnon School at 46 School House Rd. in Quilcene. They performed maintenance and clean-up chores and the Port Ludlow associates did landscaping work at the campus entrance for the Chimacum School District.
