Dear friends,
It is with great regret that (after discussion with the CIPC board and our friends in Turkey) the decision has been taken that we must postpone our competition this year yet again. The global situation is still unclear and unsafe so we must stay safe and postpone again.
But we are only postponing, as pipe smoking will continue in 2022. Our intention remains to have our European and World Cup for teams Championships in one of the most beautiful cities in the world – Istanbul.
Please inform all your members/clubs etc. of this news. Thank you.
And now a question – What about 2023?
Which country would like to organize the World (individual) CIPC Championship in 2023?
Please let Cornelius and myself have any suggestions and, better still, volunteers!
Thank you again.
Stay safe and enjoy your pipes!
Regards
Mark Dyer
General Secretary – CIPC
