County Executive Neuhaus said in the video, “I am very proud to be giving you a presentation of a proclamation to my friends that are doing Shen Yun for 20 years. Shen Yun is very special to Orange County because they have their headquarters in Dragon Springs. They went from one troupe to eight troupes to tell their beautiful stories across the world. They are now doing over 800 shows a year. I have seen them numerous times and I have met the performers. And they tell wonderful stories of China before communism. We are super proud as Orange County to call them our neighbors because they call Orange County their home. Congratulations! Let them have another 20 years and more as they continue to inspire people across this wonderful world we share. Thank you!”
