Beacon Motel
Same Location ~!IIiiiiJi'" for 50 Years! Historic Route 66 stretches across the U.S. from Chicago to Los Angeles. Along the way, in Lebanon, Missouri is a growing popular landmark stop for any history enthusiast, tourist, or local Ozark resident. Shepherd Hills Factory Outlets started in the outlet business in 1972 as an outlet for locally made Walnut Bowls. Ida and Rea Reid, founders, began their entrepreneurship operating a motel in the 1960's called the Capri Motel which was located right along Route 66, known today as Interstate 44.. They sold the Capri Motel in 1966 and along with their sons, Rod and Randy, started a new business in 1972 called the Shepherd Hills Gift Shop which was leased as a part of the Shepherd Hills Motel and happened to be located in virtually the same spot as the Capri Motel. Later, as they began expanding, they bought a portion of the motel as well as the gift shop and began construction of their current building in 1999. In the meantime, Shepherd Hills added additional locations including those in Osage Beach, MO, Branson, MO, and Eddyville, KY , and brought in other quality products to the lineup including Chicago Cutlery, Denby Pottery, and of course Case XX pocketknives--making the latter also available through catalog mail order and eventually on the web at www.CaseXX.com. Lebanon is one of the best places to see the Mother Road, which was officially named right here in Missouri. You can drive a 5-mile section of the original road, and commemorative Route 66 signs will help guide your drive. -

2018 3Rd QTR Update Report
2018 3rd Quarter Update Report & Next Steps Prepared by Mr. Bill Thomas Chairman, Rt. 66 Road Ahead Partnership October 12, 2018 1 Overview 2018 seems to have sped by. And now with the 3rd Quarter ended, we are headed into the home stretch of what has been a good and busy year for Rt. 66. The Congressional bills to designate Rt. 66 a National Historic Trail [HR801] and to establish a national Rt. 66 100th Anniversary Commission [HR66] continue to progress. The cross-country caravan designed to educate folks about the National Historic Trail initiative was a great success, producing – to date - over 60,000 signatures on the petition to support HR801. Work continues on the development of a GPS-based Rt. 66 navigation app, with completion slated for next spring. The 2nd annual Route 66 European Festival provided an opportunity to test our “International Rt. 66 Traveler’s Survey”. Members of our Vintage Motel Task Force will meet in mid-October to work on their goals, and a new “Rt. 66 Green Book Task Force” has been established to focus attention on the African-American experience on Rt. 66. All that, and more, is noted in the Update Report that follows. This 2018 3rd Quarter Update Report presents details regarding the status of goals being pursued by our several Working Groups, along with updates from our organization’s Financial Sustainment Task Force, our Advisory Groups, the Rt. 66 Vintage Motel Task Force, the Rt. 66 Green Book Task Force, and our National Historic Trail Task Force. We believe it is important to let everyone know what the Road Ahead is doing. -

2018 2Nd QTR Update Report
2018 2nd Quarter Update Report & Next Steps Prepared by Mr. Bill Thomas Chairman, Rt. 66 Road Ahead Partnership July 24, 2018 1 Overview The first six months of 2018 have seen a number of positive things happening for Route 66. Steady progress is being made on legislation to designate Rt. 66 a National Historic Trail and to establish a national Rt. 66 100th Anniversary Commission. A cross-country caravan to educate folks about the National Historic Trail initiative is underway as I write this report. Work continues on the development of a GPS-based Rt. 66 navigation app that will now – thanks to a recently signed MOU with the American Indian Alaska Native Tourism Association – include a Rt. 66 Tribal Itinerary. Next month at the 2nd annual Route 66 European Festival, an “International Rt. 66 Traveler’s Survey” will ask our international friends to tell us their needs and challenges when traveling Route 66– so we can do a better job welcoming to the Mother Road. A Vintage Motel Task Force has also been established to address the challenges faced by owner/operators of these important elements of the Route 66 experience. All that, and more… as noted in the Update Report that follows. This 2018 2nd Quarter Update Report presents details regarding the status of goals being pursued by our several Working Groups, along with updates from our organiZation’s Financial Sustainment Task Force, our Advisory Groups, the newly formed Vintage Motel Task Force, and our National Historic Trail Task Force. We believe it is important to let everyone know what the Road Ahead is doing. -

Madam New Book Explores Belle Brezing’S Ties to the Expanding Bluegrass Horse Business of Belle the 1890S and Early 1900S
MADAM New book explores Belle Brezing’s ties to the expanding Bluegrass horse business of Belle the 1890s and early 1900s By Maryjean Wall utumn in Lexington was high season for the trots and Thoroughbred rac- ing during the Gay Nineties, and the woman named Belle Brezing loved going to the track. A pair of perfectly matched chestnuts drew her sporty phaeton, the Ferrari of its day. When Brezing’s liveried driver pulled the Ahorses to a halt at the gate and she alighted, heads turned. She could have been any society figure, given her polished manners and rich appearance. But she did not represent acceptable society. Everyone in this small city knew who she was: proprietor of a notorious house of ill repute, perhaps the most infamous broth- el in the South. For all her fashionable clothes purchased in New York, Brezing could not hide this fact.
