Upcoming Route 66 events

I took this off the Oklahoma Route 66 Association site and added info and links where applicable:

The Roger Miller Festival will be Oct. 22 in Erick, Okla. While you’re there, go see the Roger Miller Museum to honor the “King of the Road” and visit the Sandhills Curiosity Shop for music and goofy comedy. The contact number at Erick is Glenda West at 580-526-3332.

The Oklahoma Route 66 Association is having its quarterly meeting at 2 p.m. Oct. 23 at the Oklahoma Tourism Information Center at I-35 at 122nd in Oklahoma City.

The deadline for a photography contest sponsored by the association and the Route 66 Museum in Clinton, Okla., is Nov. 1. Photos must be taken between Jan. 1, 2005, and the deadline. Categories include roadside scene, historic landmark, animals and events. Call Marilyn Emde at 405-258-0008 at the association or the museum at 580-323-7866.

UPDATE: I just received a letter from the Missouri Route 66 Association. It is having a meeting Nov. 5 at 12:30 p.m. at Granny Shaffer’s Restaurant at 2728 North Range Line Road in Joplin. A mail-in registration form can be found here
