In 2012 the City of Tehachapi introduced a sponsorship program that allowed businesses, organizations, families or individuals to sponsor an American flag in downtown Tehachapi.

The sponsorship program, known as the "Adopt-A-Flag" program, gives Tehachapi and its residents an opportunity to show off their pride and patriotism for America. The City has approximately 100 decorative light posts on Tehachapi Boulevard, Green Street, F Street, Curry, Robinson, and the Mill Street corridor right off Highway 58 that will be available for Adopt-A-Flag sponsors. The program will offer sponsorship for a term commencing Memorial Day and ending Labor Day, or for as long as weather permits.

For $50, sponsors can adopt a flag at an available spot of their choice. In exchange for sponsoring the American flag, a personalized decal will be placed on the decorative light post to display the name of the participating sponsor, or to indicate a dedication to a certain person or party per the sponsor's request. Logos made available (in PDF format) are encouraged as well and may be submitted with your sponsorship form or emailed to cdavis@tehachapicityhall.com.

Please call Cinthya at (661) 822-2200, Ext 123 for more information or feel free to stop by City Hall at 115 South Robinson Street to pick up an application today! Applications will also be available online at http://www.tehachapicityhall.com.
