Greetings fellow pipe smokers!
We trust that you have had a great Christmas, and are eager to start the New Year....2019 was a great year as far as club growth goes, and we are hoping that the trend continues into 2021.
Pipe Club meeting: Saturday, January 11th at 1 PM, Big Sticks Fine Cigars.

As typically is the case, our Pipe Club meeting will take place on the second Saturday of the month which is January 11th, on that day in history in the year 1864, Charing Cross Railway Station opened in London, an area that has had a rich history of many pipe shops and tobacconists that are legendary. Sadly most are gone, but Segar and Snuff still operates....

...and Greg Pease still continues to produce a blend by that name, a blend not spoken of much, but is a great Balkan blend in it's own right. So to start the New Year, we will dedicate the first meeting to the great tobacconists of Charing Cross.

Pipe night will take place on: Wednesday, January 22nd, at 5 PM

We hope to see you there, have a safe and Happy New Year, and may the coming year allow you to Prosper in health, wisdom, and good fortune.

The Arizona Pipe Club

I hope the Vikings game will on the TV.

Thanks guys, we had over 25 in attendance, certainly a record for our group, we would have had two more enthusiastic members attend but them and the person that had invited them was unaware that the FDA minimum regulations changed the age from 18 to 21.

Regardless, we had a good time, we will try to get the room set up to be more accommodating next time, and not having to cobble tables together after people arrive.

No problem, Charlie. I looked for you but saw that you were engaged. The only drawback to the wonderful turnout!

A great observation Larry, I noticed Russ's Bowler cap and a few flatcaps but there were several wearing classy looking caps...it really hearkens back to a time when a pipe and a nice looking hat went hand in hand with a gentleman...and I can say without hesitation that these are true gentlemen...we are a fortunate pipe club in that regard, hat or no hat.
