The "Adopt-A-Pole" program gives Tehachapi and its residents an opportunity to show off their pride and patriotism for America by adopting a pole that will have a U.S. flag displayed on it during the summer months and holiday decorations displayed during winter months.

The City of Tehachapi has approximately 100 decorative lampposts (poles) available for adoption along Tehachapi Blvd., Green St., F St., Curry St., Robinson St., and N. Mill St. adjacent to Hwy. 58.

The Adopt-A-Pole program offers annual sponsorships for $100. Sponsoring a pole includes a personalized decal that is placed on the decorative lamppost 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 jgarner@tehachapicityhall.com.

The U.S. flags will be displayed from Memorial Day through Veteran's Day, or for as long as weather permits, and our winter decorations will be displayed from November through January.

Please call Jessica at (661) 822-2200 ext. 102 for any questions. Applications will also be available online at http://www.tehachapicityhall.com.
