Christmas in July

Tehachapi veteran Lonny Mann was present at Christmas in July to benefit Toys for Tots on July 14. Mann was the winner of a smokeless grill.

The event is held annually by Marty Pay Farmers Insurance. There's food, prizes and summertime Santa on hand to say hi to kids and hand out prizes.

Toys can be dropped off at Marty Pay's office, 212 W. F St., Tehachapi, until December.
