Spokane UW Alumni Chapter
Welcome
The Spokane Chapter of the UW Alumni Association strives to meet the diverse interests of the many thousands of loyal Huskies that live, work and play in the greater Spokane area. Some are UW alumni (approx. 4,000), others are current students, parents of students, or simply friends and fans of the UW. For whatever reason you call yourself a Husky, we welcome you to our chapter. We look forward to strengthening connections with one another and to the University through various programs and events throughout the year. The Spokane area includes Ferry, Lincoln, Pend Oreille, Stevens, Whitman, and Adams counties and Kootenai County in Idaho.
