WPA is an all-volunteer organization working for General Aviation in the state of Washington. Nearly everything we do falls under one of the pillars of Advocacy, Outreach, Education and Social Activities. We are busy with testimony in Olympia, or land use hearings around the state. We host airport events that reach out to neighboring communities.  We are holding seminars - on maintenance, new technology and crossing borders. Our Chapters’ calendars are busy with hangar parties, aviation movie nights or Saturday morning fly outs. We are organized in 20 chapters across the state. Most of these chapters are associated with airports, but we also draw from areas larger than specific airports, including an at-large membership. It is the Chapter that is the basic element in WPA. Oh sure, there’s a State Board. We work to keep the organization as vital, relevant and engaged as when this Association was formed nearly 55 years ago. But there’s no “puzzle palace” headquarters. When we meet, we are hosted by chapters.
