IMPORTANT UPDATE! Please read!
Due to some unforeseen scheduling conflicts with Kitsap CERT and DEM that are beyond our control, we have made the difficult decision to postpone this great event. WE WILL still hold this event, but it will be either later this fall or likely sometime in the spring (we want to avoid rainy fall/winter days!). So stay tuned for updates. We will also continue to share some safety information through here and the strawberry hill website safety page and are always happy to answer any questions you might have or give recommendations.
We are so excited for our First Emergency Preparedness day! We live in a beautiful and safe neighborhood, but emergencies can happen anywhere. Would you know what to do if there was an earthquake, a major fire, a blizzard, or other emergencies? Would you have what you need to get though it? Would your neighbors? Partnering with the Kitsap County Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) and the Department of Emergency Management (DEM), the Strawberry Safety Committee is motivated to help us come together as a neighborhood and be prepared not only to help ourselves, but to support all our neighbors.
Date and time: August 29, 11:30-4:00
Timeline of Events:
11:00 – Volunteers meet at the park Gazebo for instructions.
11:30 to 1:30 – Volunteers will be going door to door to begin the process of checking in on the well-being of all the homes and families in the neighborhood.
2:00 to 4:00 – Information fair and activities at the park, including hot dogs and Stone Soup.
Volunteers Needed!
We need six to ten volunteers (adult or older teens) to help with this exercise. This will include walking around the neighborhood and knocking on doors. Instructions will be given on the day of the exercise.

Our neighborhood annual garage sale is always the last weekend in July. It has arrived!
This year, the Board determined we would order a reusable sign to advertise. (This has been a request for a long time.)
Feel free to advertise to local community groups if you are participating. There is not a volunteer who is posting for our event currently.
The sign does not have days or hours. Individual homes can set their own days and times, although generally garage sales run around 9 AM – 4 PM, both weekends days.
If you choose to participate, good luck!
Thank you to everyone who attended our annual membership meeting in the park! We had 16 homes present, representing just 17% of our community. We’d love to have more neighbors attend next year, but we’re thankful we had a quorum (and a good time). If you received a community award and you were not at the meeting, it will be dropped off at your home!
Read the minutes from the meeting to catch up on the news.
We’ve had some questions about the CC&Rs, so we created a simple document that outlines all the rules we all agreed to live by when we bought or rented our homes in Strawberry Hill. It’s posted in our CC&Rs folder on this website, and we’re also linking it below. We hope it’s helpful!
As always, questions can be directed to the officers by emailing us or completing the contact form on our website.
See you next year, neighbors!
We are looking forward to seeing everyone at our annual membership meeting, which was scheduled a whole year ago. It’s finally here!
📅 Monday, July 20th
⏰ Dinner at 5:30 pm (optional), Membership meeting begins at 6:00 pm
Tacos are back by popular demand! The HOA provides bottled water, plastic and paper products, and tacos from Taqueria El Rey. We ask community members to bring a side dish or dessert to share. Then come enjoy food and fellowship together before the meeting begins.
Bring your own chair to attend the meeting. Please remember the grassy area next to the basketball court is for loading and disabled parking only.
Agenda items for the meeting should be submitted to the officers in advance via our website or email. Our current agenda is below.

The parade will start at 7938 Cabrini and make a loop.

Thank you to the Gaska family for organizing this annual event!
While it took longer than planned, the pressure washing to the sport courts at the park is now complete. Check out this before and after photo to see the difference!
Keeping the courts safe for players is part of the maintenance costs that your HOA dues pay for each year. The board received two bids for this project and selected the most economical bid. We usually maintain the courts with cleaning every other year.
Strawberry Hill’s tennis and basketball courts are getting their every-other-year cleaning on Friday, June 5.
Courts will be closed to visitors (and the park will be a bit noisy) starting at 9 AM.
Thank you!
Anyone is welcome to attend and contribute to the Strawberry Safety Committee!
Next meeting: Monday, May 4 at 7:00 – 7695 Cabrini Dr SE
Agenda:
Great job on the neighborhood cleanup day, everyone! We had many homes participate, and it was great to see so many people outside working together.
We’re working hard to update the Strawberry Safety landing page with all the information you need, upcoming events, and more.
Free round 7/8 round rock provided by Kitsap Quarry is located the common area adjacent to 7986 Cabrini. Pick up by Sunday, May 3. After that, it will be spread around the common area.
Free wood chips are available in the west corner of the park near the parking area. You can’t miss it. It’s about 25 yards of chips, thanks to all of the wood piles stacked up in the neighborhood and Archon Tree Service who took care of all the piles on Monday. Pick up by Sunday, May 3. After that point, we will have it pushed into the woodline to compost.
