Duane Isackson, whose father Henry Isackson, founded their sawmill in 1936, will talk about the mill and give a demonstration of its operation. He will also present various logging artifacts and tell stories from this era of Washington’s history.

Families are welcome at this unique opportunity to visit a family-owned sawmill and see the machinery in action, while learning about some of the history of milling.

To get to the mill, drive toward Redmond on S.R. 202, approximately 12 miles from Fall City. Turn left at N.E. 244th. The mill will be visible from the road on the right side.
