Payson Historical Society: Yesterday and Today - 1850-1950


"Pictures tell the Payson Story," thanks to the Historical Society's L. Dee Stevenson's weekly contributions.  Pictured above is the original Payson High School building as it looked in 1950 with the gymnasium to the south.  The building was constructed in 1912 at 600 South and Main, and dedicated on January 24, 1913.  The school met the wrecker ball in the late 1980s, leaving only the old gymnasium on the grounds.  It was renamed the Bon Ton and used for recreation programs until it was demolished several years later.
