Perhaps it is one of the best things to happen to Payson in a long time. The pond had become rather a mud hole, but everyone just took it for granted, paying no heed to its cry for help. The responsibility always belonged to someone else. Then when we were threatened with losing it entirely, a whole community eagerly arose and fought to restore it. The pond, restored with such loving hands, is indeed a beauty spot in the park. Huge stones grace its edges. It has a cement M-Me- and Gleaners n Italian Outing Aug 26 The and Gleaners of five Stakes including Springville en Spanish Fork, Palmyra, Payson Santaquin-Tinti- c, are having an outing.

Evergreens have been placed at intriguing points along the gentle sloping hill and the edges of the pond. A lot of work and devotion have gone into this project. A citizens committee, backed by The City Beautificaton Committee worked out negotiations for its restoration, handling publicity, financing and other details. Dennis Dixon, acting as Pond Chairman, Wilford Ellsworth, volunteer supervisor and Wayne Pickering, acting as des- igner, overseeing the installation of the large rocks and landscaping have devoted many hours to this project. They report, It has been a rewarding experience to see the people turn out to volunteer their help. The response has been great and the feeling has been one of cooperation and unity. Many other individuals have backed the project with donations of money. The following Civic Clubs have contributed funds for the restoration: Pay-so- n Art Club, CultusClub, Garden Club, Cockleburr Riding Club and in addition the Jaycees donated labor. First Security Bank also gave to the cause. Donations are still being accepted at First Security Bank as all of the bills have not been paid. It has taken the unselfish endeavor of all of these citizens to motivate this project and push it to completion. Whom do we thank0 The list is too numerous to mention any one citizen and lust how do you thank a whole community? It will soon be Homecoming time perhaps we could meet at the pond, enjoy its return and commence the celebration.
