This year’s calendar celebrates the 100th anniversary of Route 66,
often referred to as the “Mother Road,” one of America’s most famous
highways and a symbol of westward travel and economic growth.
Officially established in 1926 as part of the nation’s first federal highway system, Route 66 was named in Springfield, Missouri, by local
leader John T. Woodruff, who later became the first president of the National Route 66 Association in 1927. Stretching roughly 2,400 miles from Chicago to Los Angeles, Route 66 connected the Great Lakes to the
Pacific Coast and passed through a wide range of landscapes, from Midwestern farmlands and rolling hills to open plains and Southwestern deserts. Promoted as the shortest and most scenic route west, it
became the first completely paved U.S. numbered highway and a major driver of tourism.
Route 66 passes through eight states: Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California. Towns along the
route prospered as gas stations, motels, and restaurants sprang up to
serve travelers. At the same time, cities like Springfield grew into important transportation hubs, boosting population and economic
development under the popular slogan, “Get your Kicks on Route 66.”
