The first time I was too young to be legally into anything tobacco related (long time ago now, I was a teen in the 1980's). I then tried again in my early 20's. I didn't really have any...

    Rochester/Canandaigua NY clubs?

    I'm newly joined to the site, and live in the Greater Roch area. I'm definitely interested in any gatherings or such if any manage to happen. :)
