The annual Potlatch has been the premier event of the Washington State Society for over 50 years. Potlatch features homegrown seafood, vegetables, candies, beer and wine through a reception and sit down dinner. Following dinner, guests participate in a charity raffle for exciting prizes benefiting a Washington State charity, and dance the night away to a live band.

Tickets will go on sale to dues paying 2012 Washington State Society members on April 16. Tickets will go on sale on a space available basis to the general public on April 23. Individual tickets to Potlatch 2012 are $49; $40 for 2012 Washington State Society members. Each dues paying member may purchase one ticket at the discounted price.

Ticket requests should be sent to potlatch@washingtonstatesociety.org and will be reserved on a first come, first serve basis. In your email, please include your name, contact information, number of tickets you would like to reserve, and if applicable the name of your guest. Please advise that it is the policy of the Washington State Society to seat two people together as part of any ticket request. For larger groups that would like to sit together we suggest purchasing a table of ten for $650.

To ensure Potlatch is a success, the Washington State Society relies on generous corporate sponsors for products from Washington State, prizes for the charity raffle and monetary sponsorships.
