Angelique Hill brought important information on events
and scheduling for CalRTA members for the coming year. State Board Meetings, Speakers Bureau, Awards Nominations, Advocacy Day and the State Delegate Assembly were some of the events presented with scheduling data.
Polly Bacich discussed the two main goals for the organization for 2010-2011,
I. Leadership Development and II. Pension Education. It is imperative to the viability of the organization that leadership is cultivated and nurtured. A Pension Campaign is planned to educate the members and the public at large on the facts of the CalSTRS pensions. The inaccuracies the media presents in their articles must be addressed.
