Sen. Ventura Route 66

JOLIET – Tourism in the 43rd District will receive a financial boost through recent grants to promote Route 66 during its centennial, thanks to State Senator Rachel Ventura, who helped secure over $553,000 for two local organizations.

“From Route 66 and the Old Joliet Prison to the Illinois and Michigan Canal National Heritage Site and the Rialto Square Theater, the 43rd District is home to some of Illinois’ most famous attractions,” said Ventura (D-Joliet). “Being situated in the suburbs of Chicago offers a unique challenge to attract domestic and international visitors, but I applaud the efforts and success that our municipalities and visitor bureaus put into promoting all the amazing sites we have in our communities.”
