Page,
Arizona is one of the gateway cities to the beautiful
Lake Powell and Glen Canyon Recreation Area. There are
more than 8,000 residents that call this beautiful city
their home. Most are working in tourism-related businesses.
In
the early 1950's, construction workers began working on
the Glen Canyon Dam project, and seven years later the
small community of Page was started. Page was named after
the late John C. Page, who served as commissioner of the
Bureau of Reclamation in the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration
from 1937 to 1943.
Today,
the Page area hosts millions of visitors each year. The
city is a central location for tourists traveling to Lake
Powell, Monument Valley, Grand Canyon North and South
Rims, Bryce and Zion.
