HISTORICAL DOWNTOWN WALKING TOURS

Each year 40 to 45 people from Alpha Tours in Sacramento come for the walking tour.

In the past we have hosted, a Rotary Group Study Exchange from Norway who visited Poulsbo on the first stop of their tour of Western Washington and British Columbia.  The group consisted of young professional women and a group leader.  Poulsbo provided them with a comfortable transition between Norway and North America. The group enjoyed a Poulsbo Walking Tour during their stay.

PHS hosted a group of about 45 members of the Kitsap County Historical Society’s "Eat Your Way Through Kitsap" program.  After lunch at Mor-Mor Bistro, the group and PHS tour guides Gordon Stenman, Hildur Gleason, Arlene Watland-Fureby and Judy Driscoll, walked through downtown Poulsbo.  Afterwards, Gordon hosted the group at the Martinson Cabin.  Everyone was enthusiastic and complimentary about the tour and cabin events.

A tour group of about 40 people from California took a Poulsbo walking tour.  This group visited several years consecutively.

Tour guide Judy Driscoll kicks off our fall school programs by leading Christ the King Academy’s fourth grade class on a Poulsbo Walking Tour followed by hands-on activities at the Martinson Cabin.  PHS is now a regular part of this class’ Washington History unit.

HISTORICAL MARTINSON CABIN TOURS

The Martinson Cabin museum officially opened to the public on October 29, 2006. This culminated years of patience by the Martinson family, perseverance by Bill Austin and the Bight of Poulsbo group, donations by many civic-minded businesses and individuals, countless hours of volunteer time, cooperation of the City of Poulsbo and the Poulsbo Historical Society's determination to make this historic jewel available to the public.
