Sons In Retirement (SIR) Las Trampas Branch 116 welcomes guests to socialize with us at 11am on Monday, February 16th at our monthly luncheon at the Walnut Creek Elks Lodge, 1475 Creekside Dr. Please call 925-322-1160 for lunch reservations. The cost for lunch is $15. Before each luncheon we have a Book Exchange where members bring a book they think is of interest to others and take home a book from those left by others. This sharing of books provides an enhanced opportunity for literary enlightenment. In addition, our Book Discussion Group meets, generally on the fourth Monday of the month, at 10:15am at Orinda Books which is located at 276 Village Square in Orinda to discuss a book recommended by one of the members. The February book will be Artificial Intelligence and the End of the Human Era by James Barrat. If you enjoy reading and like stimulating discussions, you will find enjoyment with the friendly group of retirees in the SIRs organization. To learn more about our membership activities for retired men, please visit www.Branch116.org.
