âThese tours make the going great!â âState Senator Ken Jacobsen, 46th District, Seattle

âWashington State is a land of great beauty and history. There is no better way to understand this than to see and be part of that historic legacy. The Washington Heritage Tour Series offers you that opportunity. You are given the chance to visit tribal communities, take part in local community celebrations, and gain a greater understanding of who we are and how we got here.
I applaud those who put this excellent program together and call on all Washingtonians and people visiting from outside this state to take advantage of this great opportunity. Celebrate the present by connecting with the past.â -Sam Reed, Secretary of State
