Speed, Spirit and Soul: Stanley Wanlass and the Artists of Lehi

Fifty people gathered to honor Margaret Wines Park, Lehi’s oldest existing park and center of many Lehi celebrations. The park was created in 1908, when Ira D. Wines gifted the land to the city if it would maintain it as a park in honor of his late wife, Margaret. The park is Lehi’s oldest existing park and the center of many of Lehi’s celebrations.
City Councilwoman Michelle Stallings paid tribute to the many local groups and clubs that have funded trees, playground equipment, rose bushes, fireplaces, tables, concrete platforms and drinking fountains. “Even though this park began as a gift by one man,” she said, “it became a gift by many over the years.”
The marker is the second of the Lehi Historical Marker Program.

Open for 135 years, no Lehi business ran longer. Founded by English immigrants Joseph and Sarah Broadbent, the store was run by four generations. It sold the first bag of sugar produced by the Lehi Sugar Factory and everything needed to run a home. The Police Department’s upper arched windows pay tribute to the once iconic Lehi structure.
