It looks like you will be outside smoking in the cold come January. The new NC law will not exempt bars that are "private clubs," where members have to sign in, from the new no smoking restrictions. The new law states:
“a country club or an organization that maintains selective members, is operated by the membership, does not provide food or lodging for pay to anyone who is not a member or a member’s guest, and is either incorporated as a nonprofit corporation in accordance with Chapter 55A of the General Statutes or is exempt from federal income tax under the Internal Revenue Code as defined in G.S. 105-130.2(1). For the purposes of this article, private club includes country club.”
The most important part there is, "and is either incorporated as a nonprofit corporation in accordance with Chapter 55A of the General Statutes or is exempt from federal income tax under the Internal Revenue Code."
Be seeing you in the outdoor smoking enclosure, unless you quit. Or we can hang at the new cigar bars that serve booze that just got the green light from the new law.
