On Wednesday, Oct. 30 at 1 p.m., the McDonalds on the corner of Tucker Rd. and Highway 202 will celebrate 30 years of business with the Tehachapi community. The entire community is invited to celebrate as Tehachapi's first family-owned and operated McDonalds hosts this customer and employee appreciation event.

All previous employees will receive a special gift, and there will be games and giveaways throughout the afternoon. McDonalds has partnered with community organizations throughout its 30 years, and the local Salvation Army is one of its current partners in food donation. A special presentation to the Salvation Army will be at 1:30 p.m. Guests will also enjoy a special appearance by Grimace and Birdie the Early Bird. Come be a part of this special anniversary and ribbon cutting at 795 Tucker Rd.

The Healthy Hippie Trading Company is under new ownership and the community is invited to come out and celebrate with a very special Halloween-themed grand reopening. Join the new owners for a '60s Hippie-themed party and Ribbon Cutting. Enjoy live music by Highline, food, drinks, crafts, games, prizes and more! We'll see you at 2 p.m. on Oct. 31. Located at 20418 Brian Way.
