Chamber Weekly Survey
Your Greater Kitsap Chamber wants to know:
Would an increase in local fast ferry
service help your business?
Please select the best answer for you and your business.
Yes, Silverdale to Bremerton to Seattle service would help
Yes, Bremerton to Bainbridge service would help
Yes, additional fast ferry sailings from Bremerton to Seattle would help
No, fast ferry service does not help me or my business
No, only additional WA State Ferry sailings could serve my business better
Results from Our Recent Survey Question:
Has the lack of service on the Bremerton-Seattle ferry over the last several years impacted you or your business in any way?
These are a series of questions the GKC will be running over the next several weeks to gauge the experience our members have had with the Washington State Ferry system. If you have additional comments you would like to share on your experience at any time, please contact us at hello@greaterkitsapchamber.com.
*Survey questions are run for at least 2 weeks to capture all of our readers.
The Greater Kitsap Chamber is committed to learning how best
to serve our business membership and community. Your participation
in poll questions like these help us to work better for you!

May Membership Luncheon
Wednesday, May 24th

Our guest speaker this month is Captain John Hale, Commanding Officer of Naval Base Kitsap (pictured above).
