Greater Manassas Christmas Parade

Saturday, December 3, 2011

10:00 AM

For more information and the parade route see Greater Manassas Christmas Parade Home Page. There is no doubt Manassas is the master of Prince William County parades.

A few weeks ago Arthur and I attended the Manassas Veterans Day Parade. This was only its' third year, but we believe it will become another Manassas "must see" event. I made a very short video to give you an idea of the quality of Manassas parades.
