Willits Canoes & the History of Day Island

March 23 @ 10:30 am - 11:00 am

Earl and Floyd Willits are two brothers who came from Iowa with a talent like no other: determination, perseverance and unique carpentry skills. These brothers worked together along the shore of Commencement Bay while a neighborhood of homes and families grew up alongside them. Discover how the Day Island Yacht Club was formed, how documenting their lives and the bridge to the island were all a part of their community.

Reservation is required by calling 253-766-5538
