Often, such persons do not think of themselves <br /> as Volunteers, but as citizens - citizens in the fullest sense: <br /> partners in the progress of Orange County government. Further, we <br /> will use this time to also inform citizens about the many services <br /> offered and the challenges facing our county government today. <br /> (SeelAttachment B - Recommended Activities List) <br /> 1 <br /> IMPACT: Recognition of Volunteers and enhancement of citizen knowledge and <br /> understanding of crusty government today. <br /> R►1DATION: <br /> Adopt) the Proclamation and endorse the planned program activities. <br /> wti : <br />
