Ballard Community Center tagged by vandals

Two exterior walls of the Ballard Community Center (6020 28th Ave NW) are covered with blue tags.

This afternoon we walked around the building with Recreation Coordinator Robert Wilkens. He says the community center has been targeted in the past, but not often.

This time the taggers hit the front side of the building, north side of the building and the men’s bathroom door. Wilkens says the goal of the Parks Department is to respond and clean up the tags within 24 hours. We spotted other tags on a box truck and street sign. We also received an email that Ballard Locks Grocery and Deli has similar tags.
