County board honors local volunteers, marks Martin Luther King Jr. and Korean American days
Summary
Supervisors recognized twins Trevor and Connor Smith for a decade of charity fundraising and issued proclamations for Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Korean American Day, featuring remarks from community group leaders.
The meeting opened with recognitions and proclamations. Chairman Wagner commended Trevor and Connor Smith for founding the Jim and Jerry Smith Memorial Golf Tournament, which celebrated its tenth anniversary in 2024 and raised about $20,000 that year and more than $100,000 over the past decade for cancer research.
Supervisors also adopted proclamations honoring the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. and marking Korean American Day; Supervisor Katrina Foley noted Orange County’s sizable Korean American population and introduced representatives from the Korean American Center, the Korean Chamber of Commerce and other civic organizations.
Those presentations were largely ceremonial and concluded with invitations for community volunteerism on the MLK Day of service.
