Purpose
When the
Spokane and Puget Sound Chapters merged to form
the Pacific Northwest Chapter in 2007, the
chapter grew to serve both Washington and Oregon.
Our members live in Washington and Oregon and
beyond to Idaho and British Columbia. To promote
professional growth and AWG's goals, we get
together for formal and informal events, mostly
in the Seattle and Portland areas.
