The Route 66 Association of New Mexico has organized a fundraiser to help with repair costs of the historic signs in Tucumcari, New Mexico, that suffered damage from the 2023 catastrophic hailstorm. For more information and the latest updates of the restoration progress can be found here. SUMMER 2024 UPDATE Winter can be brutal in Tucumcari. But the neon restoration team managed to get in a few workdays during February. LaCita Restaurant is now complete as the broken “A” has been installed. Inspection of the Route 66 Townhouse Welcome Center & Gift Shop sign revealed several pieces of neon and bulbs need replacement. Patterns have been made and glass has been ordered. An inspection of the Pow Wow Restaurant & Lounges Thunderbird sign revealed it too needs several pieces replaced. Thank you to Association President Melissa Beasley-Lee, Mike Lee, and Nick Gerlich for all of their help making Tucumcari SHINE again!  Comments are closed.
