The Kingston Rotary’s Clint Boxman presented a check for $47,000 to the North Kitsap School District Board president Tom Anderson in front of full house on June 9.

The NKSD Board approved the bid from Zink Commercial in Vancouver for the field lighting project at Kingston High School on July 23. The lights are expected to be usable by Sept. 10.

Funding for the lights was a joint venture with Kingston Rotary, student groups, community donations and the school district.

The smaller campus and surrounding wetlands at Kingston High School limit the number of fields that can be built at KHS. Compounding the shortage of fields at the school, there were no lights on the synthetic turf field, restricting use of the field to daylight hours only.
