How To Join Reports: Area II Email				Welcome to Area II Area II encompasses a large and diverse swath of California. Stretching from the Sacramento Valley up passed Mount Shasta to the Oregon border and over to the Sierras, the Area still manages to pull together retired teachers into a close-knit com- munity. Our memers are very active in CRTA. Two Area II members chair state committees - Lee Jernigan of Oroville helms the Insurance Committee, and Ken Hewitt from Redding the Lesgislation Committee. Our members are committed to making CRTA a strong force to protect and enhance the pensions of retired teachers and ensure that educators keep the retiremnent that they have earned through their service in the classroom. Area 2 is involved in a variety of community ser- vice and volunteer projects. In fact, we donated more than 150,000 hours of volunteer to causes in		Bill Kipp Area II Director time worth an estimated $2.7 million in 2006. We are helping new teachers learn the ropes of effectively managing their classrooms through our participation in the Educator Support Network, a partnership with NRTA, National Retired Teachers Association. When you are a member of CRTA in Area II, you are part of a large, supportive network of retired educators who are united in a variety of common causes.
