Oregon Pipe Club?

Oregon Pipe Club?

does anyone know of a pipe club in Oregon? like in Portland or Eugene area...I have never heard of one, but thought I might ask to see if I am somehow missing out on something.
Cheers,
Josh

Local Pipe Clubs

Josh-

I have been searching for a club in my area (Southern Californai) as well and am coming up with nothing that is even in the same county. I agree with Dock that our only option is to start one.

I did find United Pipe Clubs of America
http://unitedpipeclu...
but nothing for Oregon or my area in Californa. They did mention your club and newsletter, though, Dock.

Thanks for the tip

Well...that is a nice thing to know about...looks like I will be forging out on my own, however.  They have nothing listed for oregon.

Josh,Starting a pipe club

Josh,

Starting a pipe club is'nt as hard as it sounds and can be alot of fun.I started my own a few years ago which thrived for about a year until smoking laws chased as out of Connecticut!First I'd make up adverstising flyers and distribute them anywhere where tobacco is sold.Then you need a meeting place and preferably somewhere that serves diner first: ) Once you get a small dedicated group of members everything will fall into place.Consider collecting club dues too.Use the money to buy raffle prizes...

Best,

We'll have to see where this goes...

I have a bit of a predicament on my hands, as I am only in eugene for another ten weeks, and then I will be in San francisco for six and then Copenhagen for a year and finally back to Eugene for another year...and after that...well who knows.  So starting a pipe club of my own will be interesting...as I will have to get someone to take it over just as it gets started...Maybe if I can find someone who will be around while I am gone, and as partners start it...then it will be going for a while before I leave and hopefully well entrenched by the time I get back.  who knows...or I might just wait until I am back from Denmark...but I think I might be writing to ask for pointers if this thing gets going...(if that is ok)...
Cheers,
Josh
