Katie Jones grew up in the Clear Lake area and has over 30 years of history with the Lunar Rendezvous Festival. In 2001, she participated as a Princess and returned 14 years ago as a volunteer. Katie brings extensive experience, having co-chaired the Big Court, Little Court, Sunset Service, Fashion Show, the 50th Anniversary Coronation Ball, and served as the 2024 Vice-Chair. She takes great pride in the fact that three of her children have also participated in Lunar Rendezvous as a Lieutenant, Little Lady-in-Waiting, and a Page.

Katie has always had a heart for service and began volunteering in the 8th grade as an Assisteens of the Bay Area member. Since then, she has nurtured her love of service by serving as room mom for many years, actively participating in multiple PTAs, and being a member of the Assistance League of the Bay Area. Katie has served on several committees for Assistance League including Operation School Bell, Operation Cinderella, and their annual Gala. She finds immense joy in working to provide opportunities for the youth in her community and watching them grow and thrive.

In addition, Katie owns Event 360 LLC, an event service and rental company. She extends her dedication to community service through her business by sponsoring event services for multiple non-profit organizations, reinforcing her commitment to giving back, and supporting meaningful causes.

Katie and her husband, Dexter, have been married for 11 years and are the proud parents of four remarkable children: Alex, Madison, Henry, and Zoey. Watching her children follow in her footsteps, serving their community and developing a love for the Lunar Rendezvous Festival, has been a privilege for her. Katie is incredibly grateful for the love and support of her husband and family, which enables her to continue her work.

Katie is humbled by the honor of chairing the 60th Annual Lunar Rendezvous Festival and is committed to making this year truly exceptional, working closely with her team to raise money for need-based scholarships and deserving organizations in the Houston Bay Area.
