We are rearranging and expanding some information under the new menu heading “Member information“. This is a work in progress by our Attendance Secretary as he figures out the most effective way to arrange the data. 

The branch member’s photo gallery has moved under that new menu item, but it is also available by going directly to  https://www.sirbr8.com/gallery/   (This is a live link, or you can copy/paste it into your browser)

Unfortunately, one of our Luncheon Cashiers, Harry Shadeck
has had to drop out of the position.

Here’s a great way to meet the guys, put the names with the faces.
This is a great opportunity to step up and fill a need.
Training provided.

If you can help, please call or e-mail our Treasurer, Dennis Fitzpatrick at:
(925) 209-3547   or     dmfitzpatrick@comcast.net
