Poles are available for adoption on a first-come, first-served basis

For the third holiday season in a row, there will be an Adopt-a-Pole Contest in downtown Winthrop. Pole adoption is a great way to promote a business or organization and help celebrate the 25th anniversary of the holiday parade at the same time!

The contest winner–to be announced at the 25th annual holiday parade on Saturday, December 5 in Winthrop–will receive $50 in CHAMBER CASH.

Poles are available for adoption on a first-come, first-served basis, so get your entry in ASAP! The cost to enter is $20 (nonrefundable). Entry forms and contest guidelines are available for downloading at www.winthropchamber.org or by contacting the chamber’s office. (Please note that decorating may not begin before Friday, November 27 and must be completed by Friday, December 4 at 4 pm.)

For additional contest information, call Laurie Tompkins at 377-6143 or Victoria Christopher at 441-1463.
