DISCOVERY BAY (January 7, 2022) – SIR, Inc.  Branch 161 has elected Dennis Pachucki as “Big Sir” (President) for the year 2022.  Dennis is committed to SIR. He has been a SIR member for eleven years.  Dennis supports SIR because he and his significant other Karen participate in many of the SIR activities – including Bowling, Golf, Bocce and Dinner with the Ladies.         

Here is what Dennis has to say about SIR “It is an honor to be elected to serve as Big Sir. I’ve made many new friends since joining SIR and I think it is a great resource for men over 50.   I’m proud of how SIR has adapted through COVID and even more proud to have returned to our monthly luncheon meetings and other in-person activities. I’m looking forward to helping grow the organization and introducing even more seniors to all that SIR has to offer.  I intend to follow and promote the SIR State Guidelines in running an efficient and rewarding SIR Branch 161 for all our members”.
