The late Pat Bray, First DC
Black Tie Club President

The Washington, D.C. Chapter held its first event in 1998 with some 22 new members under Pat Bray's leadership. The D.C. Chapter has hosted at least two events each year since.

In 2002 the Washington, D.C. Chapter joined the International in hosting the four-day annual event.

Beginning in 2003 under C. Ray Flynn's leadership the Chapter held three well attended events in 2004, and continues to host at least two cocktail parties and dinners each year.

In the decade since its founding, the Washington, D.C. Chapter has grown to more than 60 members with eight of the initial members still in the Chapter.

In October 2009, Robert Pullen, one of the original Washington, D.C. Chapter Members, assumed the leadership of the Chapter upon the resignation of C. Ray Flynn. In May 2013, Robert Jamroz assumed the leadership of the Chapter upon the resignation of Robert Pullen.
