Ballard Locks Tour Update |

The YMF had the opportunity to tour the

A huge thank you to
Dana and
Nate with
the Army Corps of Engineers for taking time out of their day to lead us on an unforgettable tour of the locks.
You can find more pictures of the event on the ASCE Seattle YMF Facebook group.
The Ballard Locks will be celebrating its centennial on July 4, 2017. For more information, please visit: makingthecut100.org.
