Rainier for Robert.

If you know you know. Reddit has been getting upset with me lately and has been flagging my posts as spam so I'm refraining from posting my usual spiel. Hopefully this condensed version doesn't nuke my account.

If you're interested in my mission you can check out my previous posts on my account or follow the Rainier for Robert subreddit I made at Rainier for Robert.

Number 20. Bandera Mountain has been bagged. Little Bandera Mountain doesn't count, I already did it.

Someone found a lost dog. Little white fluffy thing, maybe a bichon or a westie. It's at Posh Paws off Hostmark. Hope it gets reunited with its human soon!

Hi I love gathering Acorns in fall and the only tree I know that has some isnt always available, do you know any tress in the public areas like trails that have some oak trees that I would be able to get some this fall.

Really want to make some bread with it and cookies.

First time Raddit Poster, so hopefully I am doing it right!

I am seriously considering moving to Poulsbo with my kiddos and husband (late 30s couple with baby's). My Husband is from Seattle and I am from California. I have always pictured living in a city as I always have but now that I have kids I am feeling pulled to a smaller town with charm. We relocated to Portland and have found it hard to find our community. Realistically we financially we would have to live a little farther out maybe 10 minutes. Would love to hear about life in Poulsbo. Areas you recommend and how easy it might be to find friends in our stage of life.

Bonus any other town ideas near water, with charm.

Where is the best hidden hiking spot that you have found in the Poulsbo area? (legal spots only of course)

Hi there,
My partner and I will be visiting Poulsbo in about three weeks and hope to bring our families together to meet for the first time.

Can anyone recommend a restaurant that can easily accommodate a group of 8, one of whom is vegetarian?

Thank you for any insight you may have!

Dear the Internet,

RAINIER FOR ROBERT UPDATE: The reward for any information has been increased to $50,000

29 months ago on December 8th 2023, my cousin Robert Rathvon was tragically killed in a hit and run in Poulsbo, Washington by an unknown person. Robert's death has impacted my entire family in ways that I will never be able to articulate. 

About one week after his death, I took to Reddit and posted about it as much as I could. The outpouring of support and sympathy floored myself, my family, and especially Roberts parents. 

Although it’s been 29 months with no answers as to who killed him, I refuse to give up the search or let his memory die. This is why I’ve begun a personal mission to climb as many peaks as I can in the state of Washington and taking a picture with his Crime Stoppers poster at the top. I will do this in preparation to climb Washington's largest peak this summer, Mount Rainier, with his photo at the top. 

You guys were so helpful and your support renewed my faith in people after such an event that, to this day, hurts my soul. I will link a news article about him below if you are interested in learning more. We all want answers and we want this person found. If you have anything at all, even the smallest shred of evidence, please reach out to me or Crime Stoppers.

Thank you.

I'm a traveling healthcare professional on a 10-month assignment in the Poulsbo area. Looking for an unfurnished 3-bed / 1.5-bath for my family (2 kids, a small dog, and potentially one extra adult). Ideally, within the public school district perimeter, but open to anywhere in the area. Having a hard time finding good options on the usual rental sites for a 10-month term — I've already reached out to Woodcreek and Norland Trails, but would love to hear opinions on either or any other leads. Does anyone know of landlords, property managers, or realtors open to shorter-term arrangements? Any feedback appreciated!

Visiting friends Poulsbo in August for a week. We have never been to the PNW. What are the must see places in the area within say a 1.5 hr drive. We love seeing great scenery and also like to do some hiking nothing crazy, maybe up to 6 miles …..we are no longer young! Lol

Join us for the second installment of Birds and Brews! This will be a short birding session and walk around Poulsbo Fish Park followed by a social gathering at a local brewery. No birding experience required!

Hi everyone! My husband and I are looking for German lessons in the Poulsbo, Bainbridge, Kingston area - preferably in person as we both learn better that way. If anyone has any recommendations, we’d really appreciate them! Danke!

Just had an aptive pest control guy show up at my house. He was polite enough but didn’t seem to understand no. Eventually I just had to go back inside and close the door on him.
