Henry Laurens Award
From time to time in years past, Council saw the need to recognize Laurens County citizens for their notable leadership and / or service to the County. With this in mind, in the early seventies, the Laurens County Council approved the concept of honoring these individuals with the Henry Laurens Award.
Nominations for this honor are made by the Members of the County Council and approved by the full Council.
