Cigar Under The Stars
Cigars Under the Stars is going into its 7th year. Come join us pool side at the CasaBlanca Resort on Wednesday June 1st at 8pm. Post you and your friends names here if you would like to attend so Rich and team know how many people will be in attendance.
Rich C. We will miss you night but had a few cigars for you as I played some rounds in mesquite.
I will be really looking forward to next year I know it will be great.
Stay safe and thank you for your efforts and for putting this night together.
Rich, I truly appreciate your time, willingness and dedication to making our special night so memorable for all of the participants. Although we’ll now have to wait until 2021, I’m confident it will be bigger & better than the previous years. As we say in the Corps, we’ll just adapt, adjust and overcome – until the next year, stay healthy/ stay safe!
See everyone in 2021! Boom!!!
Rich,
Put Mark Mahlstedt in
Still being there
Rich C.
Keep me in for the cigars under the stars I will be attending.
David D.
Ok, looks like a June Tournament date has been set! Let’s get this party started!
Rich, confirming Daniel M, Jim H, Chris H & David S. will be in attendance! Truly appreciate what you do…Guarantee we’ll make it a memorable night! Ooorah!
Rich, I have also withdrawn from the tournament, so will miss the cigars under the stars as well. I didn’t have a cigar requested, just the scotch..
Jim Owen
Rich – Thanks for the effort you are putting in to make “Cigars Under the Stars” a success under these circumstances. Unfortunately I will not be attending this year. I have withdrawn from the Tournament. I will miss a great night by the pool. Looking forward to seeing you in 202!
As you should know, it’s not the committee’s inability to make a decision. The Nevada State has to make that decision based on input from the CDC and local hotel and gaming partners.
Don’t assume it’s our golf tournament committee.
My opinion
Rich,
Regrettably You can remove the Hanna’s from your attendance list.
The committees inability to confirm a specific date forced us to withdraw from
this years tournament. Hopefully we will see you next year.
Awesome thanks for the update looking forward to this.
I am praying it still happens.
Thank you again for doing this.
David
We’re smoking Montecristo, Romeo & Julietta, and a splattering of others (Kristoff for one)
Rich C it is with my deepest regrets that the Crazy Canucks will not be attending the Mesquite Am this year as the International borders are shut down till June 01. I can not enter the United States of America. So you can take off of the Cigar list Paul MacKinnon and Brooke MacKinnon. We will see you in 2021 and Neil will be joining us then. Take care and God Bless
David, I will post a list soon. Hoping to hear the “It’s On” status soon
Rich,
I am still hopping we are together at the end of May just so I can wet my appetite what are the cigars you have acquired?
I want to look them up and make an early selection.
Stay safe and healthy hope to see you soon.
Thank you again.
I think I am being a realist here, and I will be in Oklahoma for Memorial Day
Rich C,
I’m hoping we will have a tournament and if so, I will be there on Wednesday night to enjoy a fine cigar and good company.
I have all the cigars and prizes we need. Cross your fingers
Rich C.
I am looking forward to your selection this year in any size! 🙂
On a lighter note: I won’t be bringing at “Corona” size cigars this year (-;

Nice Kerry
Hey Rich, I was a Spectator today at the Korn Ferry Tour’s Albertsons Boise Open Golf Tournament.
I decided to wear the “Oliva” hat I received at this years Cigar Under The Stars gathering.
I was approached by several individuals with comments of Good Cigar.
Thanks Daniel
Thanks again, Rich! What an awesome night it was. Best to you and your Krewe- the cigars were amazing. Kudos to everyone that joined Rich and especially thank you for selecting the SEMPER FI Fund once again! OOOORAH!!!!
Until next year –
Rich C.
Thank you again for putting this even on it is so much fun and the cigars were great.
looking forward to next year.
have a great summer and the rest of your year.
Thanks Jim. It was another great event. We raised $350.00 that night and another $100.00 from an Online Semper Fi Fund fundraiser I’d posted.
I hope everyone enjoyed their cigars and the available choices of adult beverages.
Unfortunately there were about 12 people who had signed up but were no shows. They all had won prizes but had to check in to receive them. We had approximately 12 additional people come who had not signed up, but waited patiently for a cigar. Hope fully they will sign up next year and be in the prize give a way.
Thanks Rich for another great event!!
Awesome
Making the list and checking it twice…..
Today is the cut off for sign ups. I’ll create the hard copy list and draw the winning door prizes after 7 PM tonight. If you know of anyone who has not signed up, let them know it’s now or not (-;
Now with that being said; there are always late comers and those who just don’t sign up year after year. They are welcome but are not in the prize drawings. Everyone who signs up get a prize.
Remember your $5.00 to support the Semper Fi Fund. I can’t give away the cigars without a charity donation.
David,
I start looking forward to next week as soon as we’re done with the each years tournament. Of course for me, the Cigars Under the Stars is the highlight. You’re right, this will be the BEST selection of cigars to date. The type and selection of those and the best swag ever!
Rich C.
I always look forward to you night get to meet new friends and some old ones not saying they are old!LOL
Your selection of cigars are amazing and go great with a single malt scotch!
Thank you again for putting this together.
Safe travels and see you soon.

Looking back at our oldest post and using the headliner welcome from Feb 6, 2013:
Cigars Under the Stars is celebrating 12 years as an official / unofficial event during the Mesquite Amateur.
13 years ago I gathered a few Firefighters and Police Officers to enjoy cigars at the poolside bar. We then discovered it closed earlier than we’d like and I started the Cigars Under the Stars quest with earnest.
Christian has been very supportive with the setting, bartender, and a better selection of adult beverages.
Looking forward to seeing all the regulars and meeting new faces.
Thanks, Rich

Rich, I will be there to raise a glass to Bill.
You Know David, Jim & I will be there, as we have for probably all the events. They will raise their glasses, and I will raise whatever I am drinking to Bill. See you Monday Night for the First Dinner, Tuesday on the Course probably, and of course Wednesday Night at Casablanca Pool for Cigars Under the Stars.
My first Cigars Under The Stars was in 2007 at the poolside bar. About 8-10 people who I’d meet on the golf course while smoking a cigar: “Hey, let’s get together at the pool bar this Wednesday after dinner”. Next year I called it Cigars Under The Stars.
This year I’d like to raise a toast to my best Friends Bill Williams who had helped me since 2008. His passing will make it very different for me to be at The Mesquite Am and especially our 12th Cigars Under The Stars. Please come raise a glass with me this year.
Rich – Put me on your list for Wed night. Always enjoy the evening by the pool w/ a great cigar, wonderful single malt & good friends. See you soon.
Rich C.
I know you will be asking for names for your night?

Rich C.
You can count me in on this event, one of my favorite things to do but have not heard from my golf buddies to see if any of them are joining me this year? I will not hold my breath for them, because they are a bunch of sissies and do not like to have any fun, just more for me.
Thank you again for doing this.
David D
And the header at the top is this:

All the way David

Christian
Sweet

Hi again Rich, also please add Rich S. and Glen H. to Meg Q’s group of cigar people. We got a few more guys from the 500 Club to come up this year. Thanks and see you soon!
Meg Q
Rich,
Count me in again this year. I didn’t see my earlier blog, so if this is a dup…disregard.
See you soon. Great cause! Much respect!
Count me in
Rich,
Count me in again this year.
Sounds great Rich; excellent choice! Semper Fi; Ooorah!!!
I am in, but per usual I do not want a cigar. I will donate because as a Marine I appreciate the foundation you have chosen. Please donate my cigar to a useful cause. Great job sir. STMF
Rich C.
Could not think of anything thing better to donate to the Wounded Warrior Foundation.
You have my name I am in and I will have something close to a $5 bucks??
Cannot wait.
David D.
I have changed the charity group I’ll be taking donations for: Semper Fi Foundation. They have a much higher return rate of the dollars received and the amount used to assist wounded VETs
Rich, count in Jim O. Missed the am the last two years but looking forward
To seeing old friends and enjoying a good smoke while helping a great
Charity.
I have researched the Wounded Warrior Foundation and it’s rating of 4 of 4 on the national charity register. Good enough for me and recommended by my Nephew who is a wounded vet.
I will register our 8th Annual Cigars Under the Stars event and I as a proxy to accept donations on their behalf.
Keeping it simple and easy, please bring a 5’er or five 1’s (US Dollars, not Canadian -lol-).
Looking forward to seeing everyone. Please pass along to everyone that you must sign up here on our Blog thread!
Are you going to set a sign up Cutoff Date? Expect to see me, just drinking though.
Kerry, The cut-off date will be May 20th
Rich please sign up Shaun Benninghove (Fallon,Nv.) Randy Hines (Fallon,Nv.)
Rich C.
A donation of $5 not a problem you know we are all in so you have my name I am in matter what
Thank you for what you do and I will donate to the Wounded Warrior Foundation anytime.
Cannot wait.
David D.
It is getting harder and harder to secure cigars because of the hoops the FDA is making the cigar manufactures jump thru. I have to align with an established cigar sponsored charity. I am leaning towards the Wounded Warrior Foundation. I will keep you posted. This change in regulations will require a donation of $5.00 to attend the Cigars Under The Stars and sign in sheet stating you’re over 21yrs old. I have lots of raffle prizes already, so we’ll have a great time.
Thanks, Rich C.
Rich,
before you commit to WWF, I suggest you google the organization.
John, I did look deeper into WWF and found a much better choice that gets a much higher percentage of it’s donated monies into the hands of wounded VETs.
Semper Fi Foundation to be exact. 94-96% of all dollars allocated to those they assist (all branches of servicemen and servicewomen).
Rich,
I don’t wish to demean charitable veteran groups, but the sad truth is that some people use the plight of our veterans to line their own pockets. I always check out any “charitable” group very closely before donating.
Rich C, counting down the days my friend. Plz put me down for one of your famous smokes! Can’t wait to see everyone once again…
Best, Daniel “Boston”!
Hi Rich, please count in Dave D (Double D), Phil M (Mac), Bill W, and Bob E (new guy) for the Cigars Under the Stars. Will be good to see you again! Meg Q : )
Rich C. – Count me in for another great evening of single malts & a great cigar with friends.
Rich C,
Count me in. Looking forward to a great smoke and seeing old and meeting new friends.
Rich C , Count me in for cigar night I am looking forward to it always a special event ( 2017)
Rich C, you can count the Crazy Canucks (aka: Paul & Neil MacKinnon) in for this years “Cigar Nite 2017”.
Rich C.
I’m in for another Cigars under the stars night!
David D.
I’m ready for another great cigar after a low round!
Rich C,
Is it time to start the count for Cigars Under the Stars, 2017 Version?
And What if by some unfortunate circumstance, it is a high round? Still Up for the Cigar?
C U in 2017
Cigar Time!
Rich C.
Cannot thank you enough for what you do to make that week so much fun.
Hope we can do it next year with out the government getting there hands in our fun.
see you next year.
Thank you for everyone who signed up and came down to enjoy a night of cigars and drinks. Various prizes, including the beautiful humidor grand prize, went unclaimed. I will use them at another event here in PHX
Put Gary Woods & myself on cigar under the stars list. We enjoy it every year.
Hope smoke some great cigars tonight. See you there.
Looking forward to tonight. See you there
See you tonight
See you tonight
See you there!
I will be doing sign-ups for Cigar Rights of America during that evening and maybe at Monday’s tournament registration. $25.00 dollar membership and you’ll get three (3) cigars valued at 27.50. A no brainier to help protect our rights to enjoy cigars and to be able to have events like our Cigars Under the Stars. The FDA is trying to do away with events like ours.
BTW: I just got some late arrivals for some additional cigars. Kristoff assortment packs. I’ll make up 4 two packs as prizes to add to the already awesome stash!
Randy, As always, it’s great to have you there. The photos are greatly appreciated too.
Headed out in the morning to get Bill in Vegas.
See you all soon
This is great event and I will be there as backup guest photographer and instagrammer (photowizardrtg)

Thanks to all those who attended. It was another great Cigars Under the Stars. I signed up a few to the Cigar Rights of America but there were more who showed an interest but I was so busy signing people in, cutting and lighting cigars, nad trying to get a Scotch (or three) that I never got your applications back in my hand. You can email me at: rfc357@yahoo.com

I have smoked a Galiano Presidente that is mild. I look forward to trying the Trinidad to see how it compares. I was trying to locate some more Galianos but no one seems to carry them anymore. I was hoping to have a few to bring out with me.
See you guys soon.
Opps…. Trinidad Paradox, an Altadis USA product. Fairly new and ah so smooth
We have another cigar available for our Cigars Under the Stars: Trinidad Especial. A milder (medium) yet tasty option to the stronger La Aroma de Cuba
Looking forward to it. See you there

You got it Bob. I’ll need the first name and last initial for your friend.
I intend to be there with one other smoker…add us in.
You got it Peach. Any others in your group?
Rich,
Hope you’re doing well. Please, add my name to the Stogie Roster. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Peach
Ron you need a new doctor!
id offer to bring some cubans down, but I just got my nexus card to avoid customs line ups at the canadian/US border. They specifically told me, do not try and bring cuban cigars through the nexus line, you’ll lose the card, and potentially be blacklisted from going to the USA for a period of time. Of all the things the US Immigration Department told me not to try and bring in, cuban cigars. I woulda thunk drugs or a cow.
Will be joining for the beverage. Can’t enjoy the cigar. Doc’s orders.
Any one who just wants an adult beverage: cash bar! Welcome
Rich, do we need to register non cigar smokers – – ones that will be there just for drinks, etc. ?
40 and rolling on (-:
Please add me to the list.
39…. can I get 45?
count me in again.
Count me in. Don Allen with friend Kevin Sweeney.
36 so far David. Help spread the word out there for those who enjoy the right to enjoy a fine cigar with an adult beverage!
Rich C. how is the count coming??

Please add me to the list which will be my fifth year,enjoyed the friendship at these events…
Rich C.
You can count me in on this event, one of my favorite things to do but have not heard from my golf buddies to see if any of them are joining me this year? I will not hold my breath for them, because they are a bunch of sissies and do not like to have any fun, just more for me.
Thank you again for doing this.
David D.
