Tables and cigar dinners are available.
The Chicago International Pipe & Tobacianna Show will be held on May 14 and 15, 2011 at Pheasant Run Resort in St. Charles, Illinois, with Show programs starting on Wednesday, May 11, 2011.
A few of last year’s exhibitors have not yet registered for tables. If you are one of those who like to wait until the last minute to register, this is the last minute.
In any event, due to schedule conflicts, and other issue, some of last year’s exhibitor will not be able to attend this year. This leaves some tables available for new exhibitors at the 2011 Show.
If you want a table for the 2011 Show, you can either email me at porshcigar@aol.com or you can visit the Show website at: www.chicagopipeshow.com for a table application form. Tables are $140 per table. We also have cigar dinner tickets for the Saturday evening banquet. Tickets for the dinner are $65 each.
This year’s Show will feature the many programs that we hold each year, and a few new events to be announced in the near future.
A few of the scheduled events are as follows:
Wednesday and Thursday. The pipe making seminar will be held for those who have pre-registered and paid to attend this “hands on” educational program.
Wednesday. The Chicago Pipe Show smoking tent will open about 1 pm, and will remain open around the clock until early Monday morning. The Pheasant Run Resort will have beverages and food for sale in the tent during regular business hours.
