International Pipe-Smoking Day
STATEMENT
We, members of the CIPC, see a worldwide communion of pipe smokers that is bound together by a shared love for pipe-smoking, mutual respect and goodwill. We envision a sociaty that respects the free choise and adult use of pipe tobacco. Our starting point is a world whre governements act in good faith and integrity and have the political will and personal courage to express their values with the basic principle of personal freedom. This means that as a group we are united and strong in our beliefs, have understanding, patience, wisdom and enjoy the philosophical aspect of pipe-smoking. We seek to promote pipe smoking as part of a lifestyle that can be thoroughly enjoyable to adults.

MISSIONM We foster links across the globe in honor of friendship and to celebrate the fraternity of pipe-smokers across all borders. |
PURPOSE On the special IPSD - once a year- pipe smokers around the world will celebrate the noble art of pipe smoking by using their own piece of art, a pipe made of briar or clay. We will put into practice old traditions of raising our pipes in toast to each other in unison and share a bowl together. |

PHILOSOPHY Today’s hectic environment almost dictates that we run on full efficiency, have total involvement in our work, our families and in every aspect of what we do to survive and achieve in a world set at high speed. With ever changing values it is the intent that The International Pipe Smoking Day will allow us to step back and appreciate our rich historical value. For pipe-smokers and pipe-smoking everywhere the day will be emblematic of our shared values, history, traditions and aspirations. |
