Sedona, Arizona is a unique, special place. Featuring the wonder of what Native Americans consider the spiritual vortex of the Southwest and absolutely sublime red rock formations, Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon challenge many national parks in their beauty.

 

Located in the high southwestern desert under the rim of the Colorado Plateau, Sedona enjoys mild weather throughout the year. Sunshine and clean air abound at Sedona's elevation of 4500 feet. Located 90 minutes north of Phoenix, and 40 minutes south of Flagstaff, Sedona is home to numerous resorts, golfing, and artistic events year round.

In October 1901, Theodore Schnebly arrived in what is now the city of Sedona with his wife, Sedona, and two children, Ellsworth and Pearl from their home in Gorin, Missouri. There were very few families living in the area at that time and they were eager to have contact with the outside world.

Theodore Schnebly wrote to the Post Office Department and a post office was approved. A name was requested, to which the reply was " Schnebly Station." He was notified by the post office officials that the name was too long to put on the cancellation stamp therefore, a second name was requested. Theodore’s wife’s name, Sedona, was suggested and it was approved by the officials on June 26, 1902. Theodore Schnebly was its first postmaster.

The City of Sedona was incorporated in 1988 and is one of Arizona’s premier tourism, recreation, resort, retirement, and art centers, all of which contribute to its economic base. Its history is that of a rural ranching community, far off the beaten track. But its beauty became known through the motion picture industry with such classic films as John Wayne’s “The Angel and the Badman,” and Robert Mitchum’s “Blood on the Moon.” Today, many commercials and television shows are filmed in the rural area surrounding the city, and the community plays host to over 4 million tourists from around the world.
