Located on the beautiful Kitsap Peninsula, Clear Creek Trail is almost 8 miles from Silverdale Waterfront Park on Dyes Inlet north to Trigger Avenue. It follows Clear Creek as it meanders through riparian areas, wetlands, and remnant forests. Hard to believe it's in the middle of a highly developed urban area.

COMING EVENTS

Thursday, October 6

Task Force Meeting

The Clear Creek Task Force formed in 1993. CCTF operates under the aegis of the former Kitsap Land Trust, a 501 (c) 3 organization, now known as the Great Peninsula Conservancy.

The CCTF’s Mission is to create and maintain a community wide network to

mobilize support, educate and focus actions to preserve, protect and restore the Clear Creek ecosystem.

We meet the first Thursday of every month except December. During the summer months, meetings are held on different sections of the trail.

This month we meet on Thursday at 0930 at the Clear Creek Sa'qad Interpretive Center, 9641 Levin Road in downtown Silverdale.

Everyone is welcome!

Orca Recovery Day

In 2018, the world watched as Tahlequah, a Southern Resident Killer Whale, carried her dead calf for 17 days, travelling almost 1,000 miles off the Pacific Northwest coast before letting go.

According to the Center for Whale Research, approximately 75 percent of newborns in the Southern Resident killer whale population have not survived.

In honor of Orca Recovery Day, the Clear Creek Task Force will host a riparian clean up in preparation for the annual Plant One for the Pod on October 22nd!

Join in the fun from 9:30 until 1p.

We'll provide all the tools, bags and gloves. We just need you, your family and friends.

We'll start at the Clear Creek Ridgetop Pavilion, 9220 Ridgetop Blvd at 10:00a. Water and snacks provided.

Kitsap Eco Kids Planting Day

Presented by the Kitsap Regional Library and Clear Creek Trail Task Force, the time has come to plant the saplings you have been caring for all summer.

Planting will be along the banks of Clear Creek to shade the creek and provide habitat for returning salmon!

The planting site for this year is behind Ross Dress for Less off Silverdale Way at Kitsap Place by the Clear Creek Pedestrian bridge. Goodwill is on the other side of the bridge. There is plenty of parking on the Ross side of the bridge.

There will be plenty of plants provided as well, so everyone can participate in planting trees.

Clear Creek Task Force naturalists will be on hand to direct the planting and provide tools. But you can always bring you own.

The event runs from 10:00a until 2:00p

Using this link to Signup Genius, please select a time slot for planting your tree(s) below. Planting parties can be no larger than 6 people.
