Gary Kohler Big Sir
President/Big SIR, Gary Kohler:
President's notes:
Happy Autumn Brothers!!
I just got home after a great trip to the Blackhawk Museum in Danville with about 20+ SIRS and a few spouses from several chapters
in the East Bay/Tri-Vally area.
As you know I am a big advocate of cross-branch activities and joint activities within local Bay Area Chapters of SIR.
It was really fun and most of us went out to lunch afterwards.
If we do not have enough interest in creating our own activity, we can always join an activity at another chapter for pickleball, dining out, travel, hiking, fishing, bowling, and many more activities not currently in place for our chapter.
Please let me know if you have any interest in this and I can assist with getting you connected.
SAVE THE DATE OCTOBER 18. Please drop by our SIR Tri-Valley/Pleasanton booth at the Pleasanton Farmers Market in Pleasanton Saturday morning October 18th.
I am also reaching out for anyone who may be able to help me man the booth for an hour or so.
If you can help, please reach out to me at [email protected] or (925) 596-0402.
Now go out and get your Halloween candy and start carving your pumpkins and enjoy having the 49ers in first place in the NFC West
