Sumner's Advantage

Sumner is an attractive, growing community, with some of the finest recreational facilities in the area.The Sumner City Park, North Woods Park, the Sumner Aquatic Center and Meadowbrook Country Club are just a few that we are proud of. Our downtown includes many quaint shops, along with our 99cent Sunset Theatre.
The City's recreation department provides a variety of activities including baseball and softball leagues, swim team, sand volleyball, bowling leagues, community education courses, our beautiful Sumner Library, many fine churches and other events to keep all ages of Sumner residents busy throughout the year. The Sumner Futures is an organization that attracts many business to our town.
We are the home of Rockwell Automation, LifeLine Emergency Vehicles and Profile Boats. We also are proud to have a paramedic ambulance service that serves our 38 bed medical facility, Community Memorial Hospital.
Education is important to our town. The Sumner-Fredericksburg Community Schools is the home of the Cougars. Our high school and one elementary is in Sumner, while the middle school and another elementary is in Fredericksburg. We take pride in our children and their education.
Our most important resource is our people. Sumner is a friendly place to live and work and our people care about the success of our local businesses and industry. Another advantage to Sumner is our location, which is within 30 minutes of many larger cities; giving our residents the conveniences of big city living and the safe, quiet community lifestyle of a small town.
