On December 18, 1964, AIA Central Washington Chapter was officially chartered. To commemorate the 40th anniversary of that event, AIA Central Washington is having a gala on August 28, 2004 at the Columbia Crest Winery in Patterson, Washington. There will be tours of the winery, wine tasting of course, dinner and a little bit about the history of AIA Central Washington. As Patterson is a bit off the beaten path, we have arranged to charter two busses, one from Yakima and one from Tri-Cities. The busses will leave the Red Lion Hotel at Yakima Center and Red Lion Hotel at the Columbia Mall in Kennewick at 12:00 noon. Along the way to Patterson we are planning to stop at a couple of wineries for tasting and to prime our appetites for the main event. We will arrive at Columbia Crest at about 3:00 p.m. The busses will leave Patterson at 9:00 p.m. for the return trip and arrive at their respective destinations around 10:30 p.m. The cost is $60.00 per person which includes transportation to and from Patterson, wine tours along the way, wine tasting at Columbia Crest, and dinner. Everyone is welcome to join us and celebrate this milestone in the history of AIA Central Washington. To reserve your seat on the bus, contact President Jon Hopwood or Vice President Gary Watkins at the following:
