A Tradition of Community Spirit
The Sturgis Falls Celebration has deep roots in Cedar Falls, originating from the city’s 1976 Bicentennial Celebration. Named after William Sturgis, the town’s first settler, this annual event has evolved into a vibrant tradition bringing together community members and visitors alike. From its humble beginnings to becoming a hallmark celebration, Sturgis Falls has thrived thanks to the dedicated efforts of countless volunteers and organizations.
