Oklahoma City Seeks Public Messages for Route 66 Centennial Time Capsule

Oklahoma City, OK, October 18, 2026 —

Oklahoma City is seeking public messages for a time capsule planned to commemorate the centennial of Route 66, according to the information available about the effort.

The announcement identifies the purpose of the messages as inclusion in a time capsule marking the centennial. It does not provide details about how residents or other members of the public can send messages, what form the messages should take, or whether there are limits on length or content.

The information also does not specify a deadline for submissions, when or where the time capsule will be sealed, or when it might be opened. No city department, organizer, or spokesperson is identified, and no direct statements about the project were provided.

Those details remain unclear from the available summary. It establishes that Oklahoma City is seeking public messages and that the capsule is intended to commemorate Route 66’s centennial, but it does not describe the broader plans for the commemoration or explain how messages will be selected and preserved.

Further information about the submission process, timing and handling of the messages was not included in the announcement summary. Until those specifics are available, the scope of the public request and the schedule for the time capsule cannot be determined from the information provided.
