About Us

We are a non-profit organization (501(c)(3), founded in October of 2023 to restore and enhance the historic Port Townsend Golf Course. Saddled with years of short term leases and deferred maintenance, the City of Port Townsend City Council commissioned a study to consider options for the property. When it appeared that the course would likely be closed and left with no budget for maintenance the Friends of Port Townsend Golf Park was formed.
​
Our goals are clear:
​
Environmental Stewardship: To manage 58 acres of public property and open space on a sustainable basis and nurture the Camas Prairie, native plantings, and wildlife that encompasses this community resource.
​
Community Access: The park is a gathering place for our community, a gateway for exercise, and a place to enjoy the passion for golf in its many forms as well as a venue for community events and activities for citizens of all ages.
​
Financial Sustainability: Our goal is for the operations of the Golf Park to be financially sustainable from user fees and successful in attracting capital investment that requires minimal city financial support.
​
Transparency & Reporting: Our goal is to provide accurate and regular reporting building trust and greater accountability to the city and people we serve.
