Sturgis Sports & Rodeo

This is "Saskatchewan's Largest One Day Sports & Rodeo". It is held every July 1st, starting with top ball games (men and women) in the morning. The day features horseracing (chariots, wagons and thoroughbreds), and trophy rodeo. The day comes to a close with a fireworks display.

The sports day has been running successfully for over 80 years, and has become the time of year to meet with all your family, friends and past acquaintances. If there is anyone you wish to see, come to the Sturgis Sports & Rodeo.

Sturgis Ski Hill

Located on the south side of town, the ski hill is part of the Sturgis & District Regional Park, overlooking the natural wilderness setting of the Assiniboine River Valley. The ski chalet, with its natural wood fireplace (for added warmth) offers up to date rentals and groomed runs, all at a very reasonable price. An electric tow cable effortlessly whisks skiers up to the top to the hill.
