A work day has been set to help owner Alan McNeil rehab the long-shuttered Triangle Motel in Amarillo, Texas.

The work day is Saturday, Aug. 19, with work beginning between 7 and 7:30 a.m. You’ll not only be doing a good deed, but you’ll be able to see a historic property up close. The motel is at 7954 Amarillo Blvd.

I won’t make it because of my work schedule, but I know that at least one member of Friends of the Mother Road will attend. I’m certain a few folks from the Texas Old Route 66 Association will be there, too. But the work day is open to anyone who wants to lend a hand.

For more about renovating the Triangle, go here. You can also read Route 66 News archives about the motel here.
