A local art teacher, Charlene Tevis, from Wessendorff Middle School has been chosen to participate in the East-West Center’s prestigious Fulbright-Hays Group Projects Abroad Program this summer.  Tevis is famous for taking her stuffed Froggy on all her travels, which have included Washington, D.C. and The Great Wall of China, and bringing pictures of Froggy in these places back to her classroom to share and help educate her students on the world.

Tevis has achieved much for Wessendorff in her tenure there, including securing $60,000 in an equipment grant from Samsung that arrived on an 18-wheeler to the more than excited school.

The East-West Center is located in Honolulu, Hawaii, and for the last fifty years has been dedicated to improving relations between the USA and pacific countries and educating participants in the differing cultures.  Find more information on the center at EastWestCenter.org/education.

As a result of months of negotiations, a deal has finally been inked for Sugar Land to get an Atlantic-league Minor League Baseball expansion team. The deal not only provides for a multi-use, year-round, $30million facility for the community, but also provides an estimated $7.7million in yearly income to the Sugar Land community over a lease currently confirmed for twenty years.

Area voters approved the start and initial funding of this effort in November, 2009, and the team is expected to take the field in late spring 2012.  A “name the team” contest is planned during the intervening time.  This is a great affirmation of the growth and success of the city of Sugar Land. Area politicians and the team management company are very excited to move forward towards the 2012 completion and know that the anticipation of area baseball fans will soon be channeled into opening season! 

“Batter-up” Sugar Land!
