Ok, We need to start a list of the people that will be attending Sunday the 23rd of this month. We will meet up at the Northwest end of the Blake Island around 11-11:30am to have lunch ( "brown bag" ) and if you would like to explore the island (Tillicum Village) that would be up to you. You can pull your boat up on the nice beach ( no big rocks ! ) or anchor just offshore. Being the island is centrally located in Puget Sound ,you can launch your boat just about from any place on the Sound like, Everett,Edmonds,Kingston,Winslow ( Bainbridge Island),Bremerton, Seattle,Tacoma,Gig Harbor,etc. Below is some information on the Island. I included some pictures from earlier events at Blake. You can used a Buddy Anchor or just any anchor on the stern to more or less keep your boat straight from not going sideways onto the beach. As far as tides go,just check your tide book.
Hope to see you there ! Chuck
Nestled between Bainbridge Island and Vashon Island, the 476-acre island once was privately owned and then in 1974 became Blake Island State Park.Blake Island is a favorite location for kayaking, bird watching and year-round camping or stopping off and watching the world go by. The popular Northwest attraction and tour, Tillicum Village, is located at the north end of the Island and is a daytime cultural attraction for visitors during the summer.The island's proximity to nearby Bremerton, Seattle, Tacoma and other surrounding cities makes it a stop off destination for daytime and overnight trips.Blake Island, which can only be reached by boat, has 15 miles of hiking and bike trails, three campgrounds and approximately 1700 feet of saltwater shoreline. The Island has views of the Olympic Mountains, Puget Sound and the Seattle skyline.
