Get Your Kicks with Reid Newspapers on Route 66!

The Mother Road is turning 100 in THIS YEAR, and Reid Newspapers is hitting the gas to celebrate America’s most

legendary highway.

We have more community newspapers along Route 66 than anyone else in the nation such as the Miami News-Record, Afton-Fairland American, Vinita Daily Journal, Grand Laker, Edmond Life & Leisure, Weatherford Daily News, and Bethany Tribune. Throughout the year, we’re pulling together stories, snapshots, and memories that showcase why this “Main Street of America” still has a grip on the nation’s heart.

From its birth in the roaring 1920s to its rise as the ultimate cross-country adventure, Route 66 has carried generations of dreamers, travelers, and road-trippers. Along the way came the neon lights, mom-and-pop diners, quirky roadside attractions, and the unforgettable characters who

gave the road its charm.

As we cruise toward the Centennial, Reid Newspapers is proud to help keep the Route 66 spirit alive. Through our pages, readers will discover the history, the people, and the magic that made the highway a cultural icon.

So buckle up, roll down the windows, and ride shotgun with us as we take the ultimate road trip through 100 years of Route 66. We promise—you’ll get your kicks!
