Holiday spirits soared as thousands lined the streets of Mocksville Saturday to enjoy the Mocksville Hometown Christmas Parade.
Families and friends gathered along Main and Depot streets, waving and cheering as dozens of participants delighted the crowd. From walking groups and performers to floats and, of course, the star of the show—Santa Claus—the parade was a celebration of the season.
Mocksville Director of Marketing and Community Development Coordinator Jeannette Pitts expressed gratitude to everyone who made the event a success.
“Special thanks to our grand marshals, Clyde and Gladys Scott, and to our judges Karen Martin, Alyson Morse and Will Marklin,” said Pitts. “Thank you to all of the volunteers, organizations, parents, and kids who contributed time, talent, and enthusiasm to make this year’s parade one of the best yet.”
