Welcome and thank you for visiting The Seattle Pipe Club
The Seattle Pipe Club meets in Smokey Joe's Cigar Lounge in little ol' Fife. Second Wednesday of every month. (Note: new meeting date) So join your fellow pipe smokers!
  Sure there's a statewide ban on smoking in public places! But the intrepid Seattle Pipe Club legally enjoys our tobacco on Puyallup Tribal land in the town of Fife. Smokey Joe's provides a welcoming & relaxing atmosphere, with an excellent tobacco lounge, comfy leather chairs & sofas, tasty food, a gorgeous mahogany bar and refreshing beverages of your preference--including a grand selection of single malt Scotch. Its Beautiful, baby!
Coming Events:
 HAPPY 60th BIRTHDAY TOM WOLFE ! Age is just a number but this one is getting pretty damn big! Even Jim Lissner says you're getting old.
=> Next Meeting: September 8th, Wednesday 7pm
==>  Two Words for the Club Picnic: MY OH MY! OK, that might be 3 words but none too many to describe this wonderful afternoon. Pipe & grilled brat smoke mingled to create a delicious effluvia on a balmy 92 degree day. But we were cool thanks to the lovely shade of Kevin Kaplan's park like garden. And also the fact that we are, well, just plain cool all by our lonesome. Thank you Kevin for a perfect BBQ -- every detail was thought out. And BIG thanks to Kevin's partner-in-catering, Al Ford who performed his magic at the grill with his secret marinated bratwursts. Was it good to get together? No. It was great. Thank you Kevin & Al!! 
 2010 SPC Pipe of the Year: Vollmer & Nilsson!  A stunning Lovat from these gentle Swedish masters. They're from Malmo, hometown of Bo Nordh. Our best POY ever? Very possibly. Sorry, orders are closed deadline now. Members only. Ahh, the benefits of membership.
 Bad News: Both bills in the Olympia Legislature are dead. That means it will still be against the law to mail order pipe tobacco into Washington. This is an unjust law. Pipe smokers and smokers of all stripes are being unfairly targeted and demonized. Will it get worse? Extremely likely. We will have to fight for every scrap of liberty to enjoy our pipes. Thanks to Bob Ramstad, SPC Political Liaison and Bob Taylor for their tireless efforts.
  2010 ANNUAL DINNER!! : It happened in January...again! The Greeks had a word for it but ours is "fantastic". Our VIP Guest Speaker, Tony Soderman was a terrifically entertaining gentleman and a class act indeed. Then there was the latin jazz band, the catered comestibles, the awards, the ceremonies, the auctions. Of all these great things, the greatest that night was our wonderful club members. They are the best Pipemen and Pipewomen anywhere. They are the reason we do this dance and why the event turned out so darn fine. To all of them we say "Thank you!"
