The center of the community. Known as the "Sailors" (the only known mascot of its kind), Sutherland athletes compete in football, volleyball, cross-country running, wrestling, basketball, track and golf. If you're looking for the locals on a Friday night during the fall and winter, look either in the gym or the football field.
A section of hills along the South Platte River near Sutherland. Because the bluffs come very close to the river, early travelers were forced to traverse the bluffs above the bottom land. Some of the most clearly defined and well preserved remnants of the Oregon-California Trail remain here as evidence of the great westward migration of the mid-nineteenth century. Ruts can clearly be seen at the eastbound Interstate 80 rest area one mile east of the Sutherland interchange. On the National Register of Historic Sites.
