[Paddlewise] PNW Kayak Clubs

I am relatively new to this list and would like to know of about kayak clubs
in WA - I've figured out there are more than a few.  I live in the Interior
and mostly paddle on lakes and the Columbia River (a series of lakes, thanks
to all the dams).  I used to whitewater kayak (20 years ago) and frequently
used my whitewater boat as an "inland sea kayak."  I'm not "hardcore", do not
aspire to long, treacherous paddles, but would like to come across the
mountains once in awhile and paddle in salt water with congenial folks.  My
boats (all 3) are folding kayaks - would likely be paddling an old K-light
(with the aluminum coaming (Ralph - how does this version stack up against the
newer version????).  If someone could let me know about clubs - I would like
to join one and get a newsletter listing upcoming trips.  Any and all info
would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks
