DRAGON BOAT FESTIVAL STAYS AFLOAT – Sugar Land’s last-minute sponsorship of the Texas Dragon Boat Festival ensured the event remained afloat after heavy rains prevented the use of the original venue in Houston. Pictured at the festival are, from left, Sugar Land Councilmember Russell Jones, UH Downtown Vice President Ed Apodaca, Sugar Land Councilmember Thomas Abraham, Houston Downtown Alliance President Andrew Huang, Harris County Judge Ed Emmett and Dragon Boat Festival Chair Jenny Yang.
