What makes Route 66 unforgettable?

The people.

The motel owners. The restaurant operators. The attraction owners. The entrepreneurs. The preservationists. The communities who continue to welcome travelers.

The Great American Road Rally is helping bring those stories to a national audience — and donations to The Route 66 Road Ahead Partnership support the people working to keep the Mother Road thriving.
