AUGUST 11-- The U.S. Senate has advanced the Route 66 Centennial bill, but it must be reconciled in the U.S. House of representatives before it goes to President trump for his signature. Go Bill. Go Bill!!
AUGUST 12-- Route 66 Motor Heads will dedicate the "World's Largest Route 66 Sign on Friday.
And this one is a big one. It is mounted on two sixty-foot poles that once held a Stuckey's sign. The bar and grille is in a former Stuckey's and is located at 600 Toronto Road. You can get off I-55 south of Springfield, Illinois, then go just a short distance west and you're there.
Ace Sign Company is making this huge sign. They have also restored the old Sonrise Donuts sign and the Bel Air Motel's sputnik sign in Springfield as well as the Art's Motel sign in Farmerville and the Tropics sign in Lincoln.
Two great new organizations that we have on the Mother Road, both dedicated to the preservation and furthering of all things fun and enjoyable on 66.
Great Job, Guys!! --RoadDog
