Report on the Annual Meeting and Dinner, April 29, 2010         

“Orange County’s Black Gold”  what a marvelous title for the Annual Dinner of the Orange County Pioneer Council.  Jim Kettler did a masterful job of describing early oil exploration in the county.  He told of oil fires in Brea that brought enough light to read on the porch of an Orange home in the middle of the night, Huntington Beach and their encyclopedia lots….all fascinating stories entwined with readings from our oral history books. It was a delightful evening of Orange County history.
