Coffee With Jim, December 17, 2023

Oklahoma is becoming a template for how to successfully use the international fascination with iconic Route 66 and interest in the highways upcoming centennial as a catalyst for economic development and revitalization, for building a network of cooperative partnerships, and for fostering development of a linear sense of community. Our guest on today's program is Rhys Martin, president of the Oklahoma Route 66 Association. 

Rhys, an author and acclaimed photographer, also represents the Association as a member of the Route 66 Road Ahead Partnership, the Route 66 Alliance, the Tulsa Route 66 Commission, and the Oklahoma Route 66 Centennial Commission.

If you need ideas and inspiration to transform your community, on or off Route 66, this program is for you! 

Today's program is sponsored in part by Uranus Fudge Company & General Store, and RouteTrip USA, the bespoke road trip holiday specialist for an adventure in the US or Canada. It is also sponsored by the iconic Wagon Wheel Motel in Cuba, Missouri, and the Roadrunner Lodge Motel in Tucumcari, New Mexico.
