Vidiots and the Eagle Rock Valley Historical Society are celebrating 100 Years of Route 66 with a special screening of Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure!
Hop on your bike and get ready for the most joyously wacky road trip of all time! For forty years, we’ve joined Pee-wee on his cross-country quest for his stolen bike. We’ve danced to “Tequila,” hitched a ride with Large Marge, and discovered that — *gasp* — the Alamo has no basement. It’s a trip that some of us have taken countless times, but it never fails to delight with its perfect mix of imagination and glee, tempered with just the right amount of off-kilter, alt-comedy edge.
The Eagle Rock Valley Historical Society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving, researching, and sharing the history of the Eagle Rock Valley and its local landmarks. Established in 1961, the society protects a rich archive of historical images, regional stories, and old local newspapers to ensure the area’s heritage remains accessible to researchers, students, and residents.
Historic Route 66 is more than just a paved highway—it represents a vital part of the American experience through its association with migration, commerce, and recreation. As one of the original highways in the United States Numbered Highway System, it was officially established on November 11, 1926. The highway, which became one of the most iconic roadways in the country, stretches from Chicago, Illinois, to Santa Monica, California, covering a total of 2,448 miles.
Route 66 served as a critical path for many migrating West, especially during the Dust Bowl of the 1930s. It supported the local economies of the communities it passed through, and in the 1950s, became a popular route for vacationers heading to the West Coast. It was also a major artery for transcontinental commerce. As businesses along the route flourished, communities rallied to preserve its legacy when it began to be bypassed by the growing Interstate Highway System in the 1960s and 1970s.
Eagle Rock’s celebration of Route 66 begins on October 19, 2026, with on Presentation by the Historical Society on Route 66 in Eagle Rock. The celebration continues on the second weekend of November 2026, with a community festival hosted by the Eagle Rock Chamber of Commerce featuring live music, food, a vintage car show, and a film festival presented by Vidiots Foundation.
