The new owner of the Wagon Wheel Motel in Cuba, Mo., has set up a Facebook page for that historic Route 66 motel.
From a news release from Viva Cuba:
According to the new owner Connie Echols, “The Facebook page offers a little history, some construction updates, and information about what the gift shop has to offer.” The Facebook fan page is a way for Route 66 travelers and others to make a connection to the historic landmark. The fan page is rich in both historic and current photos. […]
The Café building is complete, and Connie’s Shoppe is offers Route 66 memorabilia, purses, jewelry, and home décor. The Shoppe also serves as the office for the motel.
Restoration on the Wagon Wheel Motel continues, and the first Tudor-style units should be finished in May. Restoration of the second set of units is underway. Echols looks forward to sharing the historic Wagon Wheel with Route 66 travelers and families wanting an authentic Route 66 experience.
The Wagon Wheel’s Facebook pages has been up only about a week, and it’s already filled with historical tidbits, memorabilia and photographs. Nicely done.
