Bus Tours - Sunday, September 27

Each of our two bus tours will take you to three of our protected properties on Whidbey Island – some otherwise not open to the public.

Please call (360) 222-3310 or email info@wclt.org to purchase your bus tour ticket. Tickets are $15 each and include a snack and drink. Upon payment, you will receive more information about your tour. Please reserve your spot by Friday, September 18.
