Oregon State Rep. Greg Smith (R-Heppner was honored this week by two statewide organizations.
The first is from the Oregon Fairs Association (OFA), which supports Oregon’s 36 county fairs. Also honoring Smith was the Oregon Concrete and Aggregate Producers Association (OCAPA), an organization that is working to build Oregon’s economy and supports economic development.
“It is an honor to be recognized by both of these associations for what we were able to accomplish during the 2015 Legislative Session,” said Smith. “I am grateful to both groups and their members for their recognition and support.”
“In Oregon we are blessed with strong support for county fairs,” said Dan Dorran, 18-year Umatilla County Fair Board member. “However, what we are really proud of are the few that not only support us but takes action to help. Rep. Smith personifies this and more. He is a friend to county fairs in his district and throughout the state.”
“I want to thank the OFA and OCAPA for this honor,” Smith said. “While recognition is appreciated, I do this because it is the right thing to do for our communities and Eastern Oregon.”
