Main Street Greenville
Mong is Grand Marshal of 2012 Holiday Horse Parade 

Downtown Greenville’s Hometown Holiday Horse Parade Returns for another year on Saturday, November 17 at 7pm. The parade will travel from the south end of Broadway to the traffic circle, then return down Broadway to end up back where it started on the south end. 

This year, Greenville’s Phyllis Mong will serve as Grand Marshal. Phyllis has lived and worked at many places in Greenville and has given countless hours and resources to the community. We are grateful to have someone who has given to the community as much as Phyllis. 

The Hometown Holiday Horse Parade will have 50+ entries and bring an estimated 8,000 spectators to the downtown area. Main Street Greenville, the non-profit organization that has been coordinating the event since 2004, utilizes many volunteers within the community to make the event happen, as well as provide multiple entertainment options leading up to the parade. 

This year is no different as several groups will be performing various forms of holiday entertainment throughout the evening leading up to the parade. Events this year include: 

Santa Claus himself will make an appearance from 3pm-5pm at The Coffee Pot in the Palace before hitching a ride in the parade. 

From 5pm-5:30pm, Readmore’s Hallmark will host Storytime with Storybuddies Belle & Jingle. 

From 5:30pm-6:30pm, there will be an upbeat high energy performance in Annie Oakley Park featuring the Union City Fire House Calliope. 

This all leads up to the main event: the Holiday Horse Parade, which will begin at 7:00pm.
