NASHVILLE DISTRICT

Due to heavy construction at the Barkley Powerhouse, there will not be any Open House Tours or field trips this year.  However, Barkley lock will remain open to the public from 9:00am to 5:00pm starting Memorial Day and ending on Labor Day.  If you would like to schedule a corporate, school, or family field trip to Barkley Lock outside of this time-frame, please call our office and check for availability of Park Rangers to give you a tour.  Thank you for your patience as this construction project continues.
