Community event gathering

Find what’s happening in Sterling.

You do not need to follow every organization on day one. Start here and find the calendars that match what your family is looking for.

School events, sports, Sterling Rec, Chamber events, Sterling College, church activities, library programs, city information, and Golden Ticket all have a place in the rhythm of Sterling.

A connected town still needs a good map.

Most communities have more going on than newcomers realize. The challenge is knowing where to look, which calendar is current, and who owns the details.

This page points you to the organizations that maintain event information. If you are not sure where to start, ask Connect Sterling and we will help route you.

The town has more rhythm than one calendar can capture.

School games, Chamber events, Rec activities, college athletics, church youth nights, library programs, city meetings, and Golden Ticket gatherings all become part of how people move from “new here” to “known here.”
