ROY — There has been a feeling of excitement at Roy High School this week during voting for student body officers — not only because new faces will be leading the school, but because of how students voted for their new leaders.

Roy residents can thank the need for water for a thriving population and strong community spirit 75 years after the city's official beginning.

It has been nearly 10 years since a group of history-loving local residents got together and formed what is now a staple in the Roy community -- the Roy Historical Museum.

Although the museum has seen some hard times with a slow economy and not as many volunteers, things are looking up with some grants and more community involvement.

The museum got its start in 1993, when resident Emma Russell was running out of room in her home for much of the city's memorabilia. A small group got together and started looking for donors to start a museum.
