To show appreciation for Juneteenth, Rockets and Toyota Center employees took part Friday in a company-wide day of service at historic Freedmen’s Town, located in Houston’s Fourth Ward.
As part of the event, Rockets general manager Rafael Stone and head coach Ime Udoka led dozens of staffers as they conducted cleanup tasks throughout Saulnier House, Wiley Park, and the Freedmen’s Town Association. In 2020, the organization produced a video highlighting the site’s historical significance to the community.
