- What is the Sugar Land Way?
The Sugar Land Way happens every day in Sugar Land - whether it's your friendly neighbor who is always spreading cheer to others, a stranger paying it forward in the grocery store line or a public servant going above and beyond the call of duty.
In honor of the City's 60th anniversary on December 29, 2019, the City is launching a formal way for the community to share their Sugar Land Way stories with the broader community. The initiative focuses on celebrating all of the things that make Sugar Land such a unique and special place. Submit your own story to recognize your fellow community members and city staff who exhibit the Sugar Land Way. Just follow these simple steps:
We'll be sharing some of the submitted Sugar Land Way stories on our social media channels, so be sure to follow us! You can also follow #SugarLandWay on your favorite social media network.
