The owners of the Western Motel along Route 66 in Vinita, Oklahoma, announce a lighting ceremony for its new neon sign.
The new sign will be unveiled at 7 p.m. on April 12. The event will include live music, food and more.
The Western Motel last fall received a neon-sign grant through the Oklahoma Route 66 Association and the Route 66 Centennial Commission.
The motel currently has a backlit sign (above) that will be retired.
