Here is your opportunity to help revitalize Sturgis and ensure that its unique attraction will be there for future rallies to come.  The "Sturgis Brick Beautification Project" plans to replace Main Street's sidewalks with commemorative brick pavers.  The profit from the brick sales will go into a special fund called the "Sturgis Brick Beautification Project Fund."  The money will then be used for the revitalization of downtown Sturgis, outlying parks, waterways, and areas of historical merit.

There has never been a better time or a more worthwhile way to mark your place in history and become a permanent part of the Sturgis phenomenon.  Your purchase of a personalized brick paver for yourself or a loved one will permanently place you into the community of Sturgis and make you a part of all that it stands for.

Mayor's Endorsement
The idea for this project was the result of a brainstorming committee in the fall of 1998.  The objective of the committee was to come up with ideas to help the community realize a greater financial benefit from hosting the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.

The major point is that now is the time for Sturgis to better market itself.  For one week a year, Sturgis is a worldwide phenomenon.  The rest of the year our Main Street is left with few remaining year-round businesses. 

The "Buy a Brick Beautification Project," will provide the leadership and the funds necessary for Sturgis to once again be a thriving business community.

I urge everyone to purchase a brick and make a difference for Sturgis.  There has never been a better time to mark your place in history and become a permanent part of Sturgis.
