See

Enjoy the old-time logging equipment such as the Mac Yarder “Little Tugger” and the Steam Donkey that depict Sedro-Woolley’s history, and out on Highway 20 is the old steam train, Engine Number 2, that in past years acted as the City’s Visitor’s Center.

Every year on the 4th of July, Sedro-Woolley hosts a chainsaw carving contest. The city buys several sculptures each year and displays them around town. They now have more than 25 carvings to see.
