Some of the world’s most famous cities might include New York, LA, Paris, London and Tokyo, but those joints haven’t got a thing on perhaps the most happening place in the world… we’re talking Peoria, Illinois, folks!
That’s right, stogiphiles and brothers of the leaf - for two days – September 18 and 19 2009, the Midwest Cigar Summit, one of the finest cigar get-togethers on God’s great earth, makes its triumphant return to the land Bulls, Bears, Cubs, Sox, and Hawks.
In just a few short years, the event has grown from a small gathering of friends, to a full blown cigar smoking happy-fest! This year the festivities will takes place at Jimmy’s Bar, who’s famous beer garden is the perfect venue for a gathering of this size which could reach four to five-hundred lovers of the leaf.
Event organizer and grand poobah, Lucas Woith is genuinely excited about this year’s smoke-a-thon. “Every year just gets better and better with the Summit, and this one will be the finest, by far,” says Luke. “Great vendors, incredible cigars, and all the wonderful people who come make this the greatest time of the year for me.”
Cigar Rights of America will be on hand at the Summit to tell you about their group, which is the only of it’s kind in the country. You’ll be able to sign up to be a member, and help the fight against oppressive smoking bans and tobacco taxes.
