Georgia Tech Club Seattle

Join us on Saturday, Sept 11 at 1pm for an amazing 1.5 hour sailing getaway on a 70 foot yacht on Elliot Bay. We will meet at Pier 54. Bring your favorite snacks and beverages. Cost is $20 per person.

You're invited to the Georgia Tech Summer Picnic! It's on the lake this year, so bring your bathing suit and sunscreen, and of course the little ones! Join us for a send-off celebration honoring our incoming and current Tech students and their families. This event gives freshmen, transfers, current students, parents and alumni the opportunity to network with one another and learn more about life and experiences on campus. Come join the fun!

The Seattle Georgia Tech Alumni Association has been asked to help out with the 2010 Seattle Works Day, on May 22! This is a very fun event that gets lots of folks doing various volunteer projects around Seattle. We have signed up for a team of 12 alumni to come out to Volunteer Park on Capitol Hill for a day of yard work and other odd jobs. What better way to give back to the City, put our best foot forward for Georgia Tech, and meet some fun new folks in the process!!

The Georgia Tech Club of Seattle is planning an outing to Safeco Field on Sunday, July 26th to see the Mariners take on the Cleveland Indians. First pitch is scheduled for 1:10pm and there will be a pre-game meetup at the Pyramid Brewhouse before the game (details to come). This should be a great opportunity to catch up with old friends from Tech or meet new ones while enjoying the beautiful summer weather in Seattle.

The Seattle Georgia Tech Alumni Club is excited to announce the our summer picnic 2009!

Just in time for the holiday season, we're happy to announce the first Southern Schools Happy Hour.

U[sic]GA
Florida
Duke
Emory

Hope to see you there!

The Seattle Georgia Tech Club is excited to kick off our 2008 fundraising by auctioning off a Jason Varitek ball!

Jason, a GT Alum and member of the 1994 College World Series championship team, has graciously provided us a signed ball! We are selling raffle tickets, the proceeds of which will go to the club's 2008 scholarship fund for $5 each.

The Seattle Georgia Tech Club is planning a volunteer work day this summer with the Washington Trails Association. We have a variety of options, and are looking at opportunities in July.

Events will be available for sign up in June. In the meantime, check out http://www.wta.org for more information!

Join us for drinks on the Eastside as the Young Alumni host the first in a new series of regular happy hour events. Spend time meeting other club members and enjoying a few drinks without having to drive all the way downtown.

The happy hour menu officially ends at 6PM, but we'll be there a little later. We look forward to seeing you in March!
