<\/p>\nArnold, CA… Arnold SIR (Sons in Retirement), Branch #152, will hold its Monthly Meeting on Tuesday, February 16, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. Normally, monthly meetings include a social hour and lunch, followed by guest speakers, and are held in the Snowflake Lodge at the Blue Lake Springs Homeowners Association, 335 Blue Lake Springs Dr., Arnold, CA. However, since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and county-imposed rules on such gatherings, our monthly meetings have been held virtually in the Zoom environment.<\/p>\n

Nate and Bonnie moved to Arnold almost four years ago. Products of Alaska and New Jersey respectively, they met and lived in Seattle for over ten\u00a0years. Seeking sunshine and work opportunities, they moved to the Bay Area\u00a0where they lived and raised their\u00a0son through high school. Nate enjoyed a successful career in Human Resources and Bonnie in the Wine Industry. Two years in the making, Hinterhaus allows Nate and Bonnie to meld their professional skills and passions while being able to gain a deeper level of engagement in the community we all love.<\/p>\n
HIN\u00b7TER\u00b7HAUS (<\/strong>meaning,<\/em> rear building, house at the back)<\/em><\/p>\n Hinterhaus is named in honor of the hinterland at our doorstep – the vast Sierra Nevada wilderness that has long beckoned explorers and adventurers to our neck of the mountain range. Tucked into the back of the Arnold Shopping Plaza, we craft our spirits beneath the long shadows and rustling needles of cedar, sequoia, and pine trees. We distill using fresh mountain water that flows just beyond our doors, and we age and bottle our spirits at our 4000 ft. perch above sea level. We raise a glass to those who carve their own path.\u00a0 Hinterhaus aims to provide locally handcrafted spirits that reflect the natural beauty\u00a0and unique characteristics of our Sierra Nevada home. In addition to Vodka and Bourbon, Hinterhaus will produce liqueurs, single malt whiskies, gin, and any number of creative limited production spirits.<\/p>\n SIR (Sons in Retirement) is a non-profit, public benefit corporation formed for\u00a0men.\u00a0 Our Mission is to improve the lives of our members through fun\u00a0activities\u00a0and events while making \u201cFriends for Life.\u201d<\/p>\n Membership is open to men regardless of age, race, color, or religion.\u00a0 We are an\u00a0all-volunteer organization, so our members need to help when called upon.\u00a0 SIR supports no outside causes or interests.\u00a0 We prohibit discussions of\u00a0politics, religion, or soliciting or selling anything to any member.\u00a0\u00a0Come join us and be part of the fun and, better yet, \u201cMake Friends for Life.\u201d<\/p>\n For further information regarding Arnold\u00a0Branch #152, SIR\u00a0membership,\u00a0or how to attend this meeting via your computer, please contact Membership Director,\u00a0Jim Walton, P.O.
