Our Happy Place

The town of Sturgis is dedicated to the simplicity of small town living with modern sustainability and conveniences in mind. Our greatest asset is the friendly 644 residents of Sturgis that make this such a lovely place to live and visit.

The town was incorporated as a village in 1912 and as a town in 1950 with a long and rich history. The residents have always been willing to invest in themselves and their community, making this town as pleasant as it is beautiful! 

A clean environment is top priority; Sturgis Community Park combines natural outdoor camping, fishing, canoeing, washroom facilities, playground, and outdoor kitchen facilities alongside the meandering Assinibone River. Meditation for the mind and soul.   

Our K-12 school, arena, curling rink, museum, and sprinkler park are fun ways to learn and stay active. On the north side of town, our native grasslands are the sports grounds and recreational hub.   

The great outdoors are second to none; agriculture is the mainstay of the region and lively forestry activity in the Porcupine Provincial Forest. Big game hunting and fishing are thriving in well-stocked surrounding lakes.   

Our investment in our future is ongoing. In 2006, our town underwent a Local Improvement Project and paved the way for modern streets; In 2012, we completed a major cleanout of the Primary Cell at the lagoon; A state-of-the-art Community Hall complex built in 2010 and; SaskTel infrastructure network for top quality telecommunications.  

There now just under 650 residents who call Sturgis home, with the growth we experience being attributed to the attraction of the astounding beauty of the area. 

Sturgis hosts an active Senior’s Centre, a K-12 school with many sports and a variety of other extracurricular activities, a skating arena, a curling rink, a museum, and a public library, not to mention a personal care home and an amazing Family Resource Centre with many activities always taking place. 

The 1-2-3 Care For Me Day Care is a tremendous asset to the town and provides a valuable service for the families of Sturgis and the surrounding area. The numerous local organizations that promote the town are run by a host of dedicated volunteers.
