  2. It would be great if there was a google calendar (or other ical) of these events so that one could easily incorporate these events into one's personal online calendar.

    1. Charley, if you use iPhone, you can find the schedule by searching for "Ballard Locks" in the iPhone app "HipHappen Seattle".

    1. Yes, Trella. The rangers do put out folding chairs for the crowd. You should be ok in that regard. Enjoy!

    1. Hi Marcie,
      You might try the Locks Visitor Center. I don't know when they finalize the schedule but perhaps they would have some info there. Also the Chittenden Locks are on Facebook and that may be worth a look as well.
      Visitor Center at (206) 783-7059
      Good luck.
