SPRINGFIELD, MO – Today Lieutenant Governor David Wasinger will travel to Springfield to mark a defining moment in American history and Missouri pride. Joined by the Missouri Route 66 Centennial Commission, local leaders, and community partners, he will help dedicate the new Route 66 Plaza at exactly 4:00 p.m. on Thursday, April 30 — the precise moment, one hundred years ago, that the telegram naming Route 66 was sent from the nearby Colonial Hotel.
