Downtown Seattle Republican Club

The Downtown Seattle Republican Club meets for dinner with a special guest speaker Monday evenings at 5pm. After dinner there is a formal interview and Q&A session with the speaker, taped for broadcast on local cable television. The calendar below shows a list of upcoming speakers, along with a few highlights of recent speakers. Unless otherwise noted, the meeting is held from 5pm-7pm at the College Club, 505 Madison Avenue.

The only cost is dinner from the College Club. No-host bar is also available.

Directions

The College Club is located in downtown Seattle at 505 Madison Avenue, on the SE corner of 5th Avenue and Madison
FREE PARKING available after 4:30 PM for these events in the garage under the College Club building. The access to the garage is off 5th Avenue, on the east (left) side of 5th, very shortly past the intersection with Madison.

From the north: Take I-5 south to the Union Street/Seattle Convention Center exit. Turn left, or south, on 5th Avenue. Traffic tip: traffic is very congested in the late afternoon, and I recommend you be in the right hand of the two lanes turning left onto 5th Avenue, and remain in the center or right hand lanes until you get to the block with the library. This will avoid the back-up in the left-most lanes that will mostly be turning left just before the library to go east to get on I-5. Just as you cross the intersection with the library ahead of you on the right, move to the far left as fast as you can, and no later than by the time you get to the next intersection, which will be Madison Street. You will need to be in the left-most lane by that time, as, once you cross Madison Street, the entrance to the College Club's parking garage will come up very quickly on your left, just after 2 or 3 parked cars. Warning: the final left turn into the garage entrance is a little tight and narrow with cars right behind you sometimes!

From the south, travelling on I-5 northbound: Take the Exit at Madison. Make a left and cross over I-5, heading west, toward downtown Seattle. The next intersection and traffic light, on the west side of I-5, will be 6th Avenue. You will then plunge steeply downhill passing the front entrance of the College Club and coming to 5th Avenue. At that intersection you should then turn left, or south, on 5th Avenue, and within 3 car lengths turn into the College Club garage.

Broadcast Details
