Denver Pipe Club

If you start one count me in.

+1. I'm in Denver, count me in.

One more in Denver. I think there's a group that meets downtown at Delaney's on Thursday nights, which aren't great for me... so another option would be welcome.

I'm in the same boat on Thursdays

+1, Denver man here aswell.

I used to regularly attend the League meetings at Delaney's, but not so much anymore. I live in Parker, about 20 miles SE of Denver and getting downtown is a real pain. I used to take the light rail to Union Station and walk a couple of blocks to Delaney's. But the city decided to "improve" Union Station and the construction around the area is brutal, at least for the next five years or so. Then I started driving there and parking is a problem. $10 across the street in a garage! So, ten bucks to park, bumper to bumper traffic getting there, a couple of beers + tip, maybe food, makes for an expensive evening. Not to mention the driving time and associated frustration. So I stopped going.
Unfortunately for me, most everybody in the club lives in Denver or north of town. I've yet to meet a fellow pipe smoker in my area of town (south of Denver). So any meetups between meetings are non-existant.
I regularly attend the pipe gatherings at Stag Tobacconist in Colorado Springs. The shop is 50 miles one-way, but is actually an easier drive and takes the same amount of time as driving into Denver, about an hour. Again, the drawback is everyone at Stag lives in the Springs. Alone again in between monthly meetings (sigh).
A club south of downtown, meeting perhaps at Edward's in Englewood could work. They have plenty of space in the lounge area and I'm sure the owner would appreciate the business.
The Smoking Cave in Highlands Ranch could work, though they're more cigar oriented. I haven't been to their new location yet. I attended an IPSD event at their old location, and they seemed accomodating to pipe guys. They're located off of County Line Rd.

Just finding a good day of the week to accomodate everyone's schedule is the biggest hurdle.

Edwards would be great, Tom is a nice guy and the rest of the staff are fun to talk to, to be honest that's one of the reasons I moved down the street from their location.

I can also second for Edwards. I just re-started my pipe smoking, and went there for tobacco. Just a few days ago I took time to smoke a bowl in the back room and the folks were friendly and welcoming. Good conversations around cigars and pipe tobacco of all types.
Apparently they have a pipe smokers group that meets on Thursday & Saturday mornings.

I agree, Edwards might be the best location to have our gathering. But, Stagg may also be a good place to hit sometime as well. I think if we are to meet on more than one occasion it would be great to meet at different spots, there are, after all, quite a few smoking lounges in the Denver Metro Area.
I believe there is another big place just off Arapahoe Rd just east of I25. (Hard to say that and not sound like a Shane Co radio commercial) (Denver native joke) I know that they are primarily a cigar place but I don't think they would give us any fuss.
But again, Edwards would be a fine location.

If we are going to do this I would say we should all post up times and days that we are available.
Myself, I am open to anything for the most part, just can't do Saturdays.

Count me in. Though due to my wacky kids schedules I may miss a few.

I have pretty good availability except for Saturday mornings.

I'm booked most evenings - Sundays would probably work best for me, although things are going to be a little hectic until March.
One more possible location to scout out - Prince Phillip's on Tamarac is on the south side (just outside of the DTC, right off of I-225), and has a lounge area. They've been very helpful both times I've visited, and I plan to drop by to smoke a bowl at some point... :D

I am open to most days except for Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Phred: Prince Phillip's is also a good idea. I haven't been there since I first came to Denver many years ago, but they were my goto store in 1991.
Deithial: I like the idea of meeting at different locations, makes for an opportunity to expand our haunts and change up the business we bring to the local B&M's.

Ive never been to Prince Phillip's, but i hear its a nice place.

I'm in denver as well

I like the idea of Edwards on sunday mornings actually whoever wanted to could meet early at the dennys around the corner have breakfast and meet at edwards around 10 or 11 or so?
