ARNOLD SIR Branch 152 Celebrates 25 Years

Arnold, CA....Arnold SIR (Sons in Retirement, Branch 152) will celebrate 25 year since being founded, during the Annual Christmas Dinner scheduled Dec 10 at Snow Flake Lodge, 2255 Blue Lake Springs Dr, Arnold, CA. The Branch regularly meets on the third Tuesday of every month at Snow Flake Lodge. In November 1988, 56 members of the Murphys SIR Branch, living in Arnold signed an application to form a new Branch in Arnold. The application was approved and the first....

luncheon meeting was held in January 1989, with 81 total members. At the February meeting the Branch limit was reached at152 members. The Branch was Chartered as Branch 152.



Sons in Retirement (SIR) is a non-profit corporation. It's sole purpose is to promote the happiness of retired gentlemen by assisting them to renew old friendships and associations and to provide the opportunity for new friendships with other retired men.



Realizing the social nature of man and his desire for the company of others, particularly those retired from commercial and professional life; SIR was conceived by the late Damian Reynolds, and the first meeting was held in San Mateo, CA on July 23, 1958, with fourteen retired men present. The name “Sons in Retirement” was unanimously adopted, as it seemed to enunciate and gave dignity to retirement.



The idea caught on, and the organization grew, primarily in Northern California, between Chico and Fresno, with over 30,00 members and 157 branches.



SIR copyrighted insignia is the “Rooster”. Quoting the Damian Reynolds, “of all creatures on earth, none expresses independence and dignity with more sureness and aplomb than the rooster. The majesty of his presence is felt in every barn-yard, and when he crows, he can be heard for miles…”.



The Arnold SIR Branch 152 currently has 79 members. If you are interested in attending a luncheon meeting or joining SIR, please contact, Dave Traub, Membership Director, 209 795-5903 or e-mail, traubdave.terry@gmail.com .
