Pre-registration for Black Hawk College's Lifelong Learners presentation of the River to River: Iowa's Forgotten Highway 6 filled to capacity before its September 5 deadline.
The award-winning documentary by Emmy award-winning filmmakers Kelly and Tammy Rundle of Fourth Wall Films guides viewers on a nostalgic classic car journey through yesterday’s soda shops, filling stations, general stores, drive-ins, historic sites and roadside attractions that line Iowa’s Historic Route 6. Iowa’s portion of the transcontinental Route 6 has a past that includes Bonnie and Clyde, Jesse James, Nancy Drew, Jack Kerouac, the Great Race Across Iowa, and others.
River to River: Iowa’s Forgotten Highway 6 was funded in part by grants from Humanities Iowa, Silos and Smokestacks National Heritage Area and the National Endowment for the Humanities through the documentary’s fiscal sponsor, The Iowa U.S. Route 6 Tourist Association. The film was nominated for a Regional Emmy and won a Gold Eddy at the Cedar Rapids Film Festival for Best Documentary.
