A HUGE THANK YOU to CAI PNW 2025 Volunteers!

To our 23 incredible volunteers – wow! 2025 was packed with adventure, connection and unforgettable moments and none of it would have happened without you!

We hit the trails on local hikes throughout the Pacific Northwest, indulged our sweet tooth with a tour of Seattle Chocolate Factory, explored a local conservation area, and enjoyed the truly outstanding Australian Exchange. We gathered for our annual picnic, soaked in the beauty of Kubota Gardens, enjoyed a fun-filled bowling outing and wrapped up the year in style with our much-loved Holiday Luncheon.

A special shout-out is due to the volunteers who stepped up to lead more than one activity!

From outdoor adventures to cultural exchanges, laughter to learning, 2025 gave us so many good memories – and they were all made better by the time, energy and generosity you shared!

As we turn the page, we’re already gearing up for another fantastic year in 2026, with more experiences, more fun and chances to connect!

Thanks for being such an amazing group – here’s to a great year ahead!
