Whether it's a cooking class, wine pairing, music, or golf—the WAC has many options for you! Seattle has a rich music scene and astounding history. Be sure to read more about some of our fellow WAC members in the music industry on pages 38–45 of this issue of WAC Magazine. And when you're ready to catch your next concert, make the WAC concierge desk on the lobby level your first stop for tickets. As for golf, the WAC Golf Club is a great way to meet other members and get outside to play courses around Seattle and the Pacific Northwest. WAC members can also play select courses in our reciprocal club network. My family will be traveling to Scotland this summer, and there are five reciprocal clubs to choose from. With any luck, I may even fit in a round of international links! Read more about the WAC's golf community on pages 46–48 and check with Member Services about which reciprocal clubs offer golf access. Whether you're a music enthusiast, a golfer, or just a fan of the Northwest, you'll be excited to know that the WAC's annual Taste Washington Winemaker Dinner is almost upon us. e Crystal Ballroom hosts this wonderful event that features some of Washington's best varietals along with amazing food pairings. You can bet I'll be there! Learn more on pages 18–19 and make plans to join me at this wonderful WAC event. No matter your interests and goals, the diverse membership and exciting offerings here at the WAC offer something for everyone to enjoy and share. Cheers, Rose Mitchell Chairwoman of the Board of Governors rmitchell@wac.net
