We are an all-volunteer organization; 100% of donations are allocated to preservation efforts along the Mother Road in Illinois (never to administrative or housekeeping expenses). We thank you for your generous donation toward maintaining our nostalgic slice of Americana.

On our Association’s Facebook page, we recently asked folks to share their favorite Illinois Route 66 places in 2019. We received lots of photos in response, so we thought we’d share them here. Enjoy this slideshow of favorites from this last year!
