Town History

The Early Settlers
In 1948, this historical marker was dedicated to honor George Snyder and his large family who arrived in the Park City area on May 25, 1872. On July Fourth of that same year a celebration was held to officially name Park City. The bell hung atop city hall from 1902-1948. It was used as a warning for fires and any other catastrophe that might strike. The marker now lives at the entrance to the Holiday Village Mall on Kearns Blvd.
