It's White Pipe Night!


A time-honored tradition of our club is to celebrate the coming of winter with our members gathering together and smoking our meerschaum pipes.
 (If you don't own a meerschaum, a Missouri Meerschaum will do.)

 



In honor of our incredible 25th Anniversary all dues paid members will receive a special commemorative gift at the pipe club meetings.  You have to be there to get it.  What you may ask?  It's a luxurious custom made pipe cleaner sleeve made from cork and emblazoned with the Club logo.  Unavailable for anyone other than our esteemed members.  Made by hand from our own fabric artisan Lennea Wolfe.  Come to the meeting and get yours.  

Come join the warm embrace of your Seattle Pipe Club family for a few hours of pipes, tobacco, fellowship and cheer.   We've been overflowing with new folks and we love it.  The Club is growing again.  Bring a friend this month and share the love & pipe smoke!

Join our monthly meeting where we talk pipes, smoke them, argue about tobacco and all the finer things in life.  Imbibe an adult beverage and a good meal while you're at it.  Be sure to show up and relax with your friends & pipe -- there's nothing quite like it.

To celebrate the 22nd year of our marvelous pipe club, we offer you a look back a10t our first 10 years. 

At our 10th Annual SPC dinner, on January 29th 2011, we presented each attendee a copy of a photo book highlighting our club's first 10 years of existence.  Until now, only those fortunate few have had a chance to see it.

The entire book is available for viewing as a photo album on our website. 

We hope you enjoy it.
