The PWC does not conduct instructional programs. Members are expected to have whatever clothing, equipment, skills, and physical conditioning required for the outing they wish to join. Members are also expected to practice responsible environmental stewardship and must accept that there are dangers and risk of injury in outdoor activities. 

Meets the second Monday of each month at 7:00 PM in the Kitsap Unitarian Fellowship Church on Perry Avenue in East Bremerton. This meeting consists of a short business session, reports of recent trips, descriptions of upcoming trips, a door prize drawing and some type of presentation, such as a slide show. Our meeting is great fun for socializing and the public is welcome.  Newer members are highly encouraged to also attend smaller group events and outings in order to get to know us.

Takes place the Thursday before the regular monthly meeting at a member's home. The location varies, depending upon gracious volunteers that offer the use of their homes. Members discuss upcoming trips, and the Penwicle editor gathers material for the next issue.  

The last Friday of the month at a member's home, location varies. The potluck is occasionally replaced by other events such as a summer picnic and/or dance parties. New members are encouraged to attend and use this relatively small forum to get acquainted with other PWCers.

Held one weeknight a month, this small work party prepares the Penwicle for distribution. The work is not hard, and a festive atmosphere takes over. The Penwicle includes a calendar of activities and upcoming trips, articles describing members' outdoor activities, club business and other important information.
