    Kitsap United Way’s ‘Day of Caring’ draws hundreds
    By Wesley Remmer • June 23, 2008 2:11 pm

    More than 400 volunteers piled into the President’s Hall at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds Friday morning to gear up for the 15th annual United Way Day of Caring.
    They ate breakfast, received sack lunches and T-shirts and were assigned project sites.
    “We had a great setup,” United Way of Kitsap County Director of Resources Patricia Hennessy said. “It’s organized chaos.”
    Harrison Medical Center donated about 600 sack lunches while Costco helped serve breakfast, Hennessy said. The extra sack lunches were sent to the Salvation Army.
    Sponsored by local business including Harrison and Costco, KPS Health Plans and others, Day of Caring attracts volunteers from all over Kitsap County to clean up the community.
