Residents from across Clarendon County lined the warmly lit streets of downtown Manning on Nov. 30 for the City of Manning’s annual Parade of Lights, filling the evening with Christmas music, cheers, and a glow of holiday spirit beneath the decorated trees.
Families bundled up along Brooks and Boyce streets as first responders, local businesses, churches, and community groups rolled past with festive floats, sparkling lights, and plenty of candy for the kids. The parade drew one of its largest turnouts in recent years, with the crowd applauding each entry and ending the night with Santa’s grand arrival.
Special thanks to Mayor Julia Nelson for providing photos that helped capture the magic of the night.
