President/Big SIR, Gary Kohler:

President's notes: Happy Holidays to all our SIR Brothers and families. 
Hope you all had a love-filled Thanksgiving with your loved ones. 
We look forward to seeing you all at our annual  Holiday Luncheon complete with Holiday music from the Swingin’ Blue Stars of the USS Hornet. 

As I think back over the past year I am so very thankful for the camaraderie and support from all of you. You each have added quality to my life and the rest of our SIR family. 

Please continue to offer your support and assistance to the TriValley chapter and our new 2026 President/Big SIR, Bevin Hong, as we head into an even better new year. 

Happy Holidays and cheers to a new year filled with friendship, adventures, fun, especially good health for all. 

Thanks again for all your support for me and your Sir brotherhood. 

Gary. ​

​Little Sir Bevin Hong

Dear Fellow SIR Members,

A Note from Your Little SIR 
 
 
As your incoming Big SIR, I’m excited to build on a great year of engaging monthly speakers. We hosted nine terrific presenters this past year, and 2026 is already shaping up to be even better. Our speaker program is just one of the ways SIR brings us together—because that’s really why we exist: to create friendships, keep each other active, and enjoy life in good company.
 
Beyond our luncheons, we’re fortunate to offer a wide range of activities for every interest: beer and wine tasting, whiskey tasting, bocce, breakfast and coffee groups, computer club, golf, hiking, and poker. These gatherings are at the heart of SIR—places where conversations start, friendships grow, and we stay connected.
 
I’m looking forward to a year filled with great speakers, meaningful fellowship, and plenty of opportunities to get involved. And I hope to see all of you at our Christmas Luncheon on December 11, 2025


​Little Sir Bevin Hong

Once a month we have poker night at a volunteer host home between 6:00 to 10:00 pm on the third Tuesday or Thursday. Since we play 7 card games the signups are limited to 7 players on an email announcement with first responders first. Hosts supply simple snacks, poker table, cards and chips. If necessary there’s a lot of participants that can lone these items upon request. 
​
Announcements are e-mailed out each month or scheduled for several weeks in advance. New participants will have priority for the first several months. If you’re unfamiliar with any of the games, each can be explained or you can observe. Each participant starts with $20 worth of chips. Bets are $0.25 to start with three possible $0.50 raises for each dealing. Last bets are up to $1.00 with three raises.  

Games we play, by dealer choice: 5 card draw, 7 card with wild card variations, Omaha, Anaconda, Baseball, Heaven and Hell, Tic tac Doe, Plus others via dealers choice. There are two openings for April 24th and May 22nd. Please call me at 925 337 3677 if you wish to play or just inquire.
