The At Lake Union Park Working Group is a collaborative group of Maritime, History and Arts Organizations that use Lake Union and Lake Union Park as their hub. The group meets on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of every month to talk about issues affecting the group and each organization. Topics range from marketing to shared event planning. Frequently there is a visiting speaker or organization that presents to the group. Past speakers have included The Seattle Convention and Visitors Bureau, 4Culture, and more.

Cast Off! - Free Public Sail
Our Cast Off! program allows visitors the chance to sail in classic boats.
The boats we use include: Admirable, a Bristol Bay Gillnetter, Amie, a Friendship sloop, Colleen Wagner, an Egret Sharpie, our long-boat Discovery, our New Haven Sharpie Betsy D, or a visiting classic.
Before and after your sail take a walk on the docks and discover the boats. Watch the volunteer crews rigging the boats. They’ll be happy to answer any question you might have, and you may even have a chance to help with the rigging!
We sail rain or shine, but wind conditions may keep us at the dock. Reservations are taken day-of-sail only at the CWB front desk. This is a popular activity so please arrive early to reserve a spot, we open at 10am. Rides are always at 2pm, and sometimes also at 3pm.
