As Poulsbo’s Centennial year draws to a close, it’s a good time to look at this fishing town’s proud history.  At the Sons of Norway, you can take Norwegian Language lessons, enjoy a genuine Stua (that’s lunch to you) and especially to enjoy these Norwegian Dancers. These are the Poulsbo Leikerringen sponsored by the Sons of Norway here in Poulsbo. The six classes from kindergarten to high school are all taught by volunteers. it’s a very popular thing.  They actually have to have waiting lists. It’s just a fun time for the kids and the kids that get involved love it.  Some have been involved for 15 years from the time they’re three years old all the way through high school.

Strike Up the Band - It's Christmas Time in Poulsbo! There’s no time of the year like Christmas, and no town like this wonderful town. Here’s what Erica Varga, Curator of the Poulsbo Historical Society says: The history starts in the mid 1800’s and it was Norwegians who settled here first.  Fishing was a major industry as with a lot of parts of this region which started with the logging near the water and moved inland. The Scandinavians brought a lot of skills and know-how to earn a living on the sea and so the fishing industry has always been the big part of Poulsbo’s past. As early as the mid 1880’s  they were catching dogfish in Liberty Bay. It used to be known as Dogfish Bay because it was said to be teeming with dogfish so they would catch the dogfish and use the oil from the fish to grease skid road and equipment.

Fish Park is a unique work in process, according to Tom Nordlie  so it’s the best place to look and watch the schools of salmon going back and forth up and down.  What they’re doing is transiting from salt water to the fresh water and then of course they go home and they’ve spent about 3 to 5 years out in the ocean.  So now they’re coming back to spawn and die. It’s all part of nature’s process and they end up fertilizing back into the ground.

You might even see a seal coming in here. So there’s a food chain gong on here as well. There’s birds here. There’s eagles. There’s even osprey and blue heron and my favorites happen to be the Kingfisher.  And those are all good fishermen - those birds - and they don’t believe in catch and release.

It’s time to deck the halls. Starting at the Farm Kitchen (Farmkitchen.com) where we decorate a gingerbread house, (hint: let your house dry overnight before you decorate) and then on to Valley Nursery (valleynursery.com) for wreath making and even creating a fairy light.
