The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Great American Road Trip invites Americans to explore the nation’s highways and byways in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The campaign highlights iconic travel routes, historic and widely varied landmarks, and scenic destinations across all 50 states, encouraging families to rediscover the beauty of the country. Visit the Great American Road Trip website for curated itineraries by region, or pick a destination at random to help plan your journey as part of this once-in-a-generation milestone. The campaign’s social media accounts will be updated.

By National Executive Committee resolution, American Legion departments and posts are encouraged to connect with their state and local America250 commissions. An online directory is available to contact these commissions at america250.org/our-partners/state-and-territory-commissions. Share your stories of involvement on Legiontown.
