#13616: Oneida Stake Academy at Original Location

The Oneida Stake Academy, the oldest Latter Day Saint (LDS or "Mormon") academy, was originally located on the grounds of current-day Preston High School. In 2003/2004 the Academy was relocated to its new home in Benson Park in Preston, after a successful effort by local citizens to save this important piece of local history from demolition. After restoration, it will open to the public as a visitor center for the Pioneer Historic Byway.
