Photo from the annual WBAALAS picnic

Held on a beautiful sunny Saturday at Gas Works Park on the shores of Lake Union in Seattle.   Our site was in the historic remnants of the old boiler house, which provided much needed shade on a hot day.  We were right next to a nice stretch of lawn which is where we set up some games.   And in between the shelter and the lawn were the barbeques where our master grillers cooked a variety of yummy food.  As usual it was a lot of fun meeting new people and catching up with colleagues, former colleagues and their families. Mark your calendar to remind yourself to come next year.  It’s really a lot of fun and very relaxing to just hang out for a few hours.

Thank you to the following companies for donating items for the raffle:  Animal Specialties, Inc., The Jackson Laboratory, Gettinge Group, Tecniplast, Idexx and World Courier
