The events fit within our mission of "Building community through a vibrant downtown" by promoting downtown as the heart of Bainbridge Island - a special place to live, work, shop, invest, and play.
Other program service expenses relate to various support services provided to the downtown community such as a buy-local campaign; developing and maintaining a local "kiosk" program to encourage tourism to the island and promote visibility for the island; and hosted approzimately 10 familiarization programs to encourage off-island promotion of our community to tourists. Banners are changed every 2 weeks and have two locations for a total of 52 banners promoted per year.

In 2019, 180,000 guides were produced and distributed to 270 visitor locations with an emphasis on Seattle hotels, Washington State Visitor Centers, cruise and ferry terminals, and local businesses. The walkabout guide supports a vibrant downtown by encouraging visitor traffic and business referrals.
