(AP) -- JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) -- State transportation officials are renaming part of a central Missouri road the AMVETS Memorial Highway.

Part of Missouri Highway 94 in Callaway County is being named after the group AMVETS, which is a volunteer veterans service group that helps others who have served in the military. The organization held fundraisers to pay for the signs.

The Missouri Department of Transportation is holding a ceremony at 10 a.m. Thursday.
