Emily, who is in charge of the Oklahoma Route 66 Association‘s preservation committee, supervised the preservation project during the past weekend’s National Route 66 Festival in Clinton, Okla.
The mission: To pretty up the long-closed Ray’s Motel in Clinton over a three-day period. More than two dozen volunteers showed up.
Emily has more details and photos from the weekend here. As a preview, here are before-and-after images of the motel.
Ray’s Motel after the scraping was done and painting was starting in earnest.
Ray’s Motel, after all the painting was completed.
The finished product looks great. Can you please have Emily send me one full resolution picture (before and after if they have the same viewpoint) for our Newsletter.
Thanks!
Enjoyed seeing and working with you both. Looking forward to next years festival.
