Each Christmas, community residents, businesses and organizations vie for the opportunity to adopt one of 80 downtown lamp posts and decorate it for the season. It's a fun and festive way to put ourselves and Downtown Martinsville in the holiday spirit.

How to Participate
Sponsors who adopted a lamp post the previous year and successfully completed all requirements of the program will be sent an invitation to renew for the current year. Renewal deadline will be enforced in order to allow new participants in this popular program.
