On November 8, 2014, Kitsap County Health District issued a swimming CLOSURE for Silverdale Waterfront Park. The closure is due to a sewer line break. The public is to have no contact with the water until further notice.Contact with fecal contaminated waters can result in gastroenteritis, skin rashes, upper respiratory infections, and other illnesses. Children and the elderly may be more vulnerable to waterborne illnesses.
