Christmas trees light up Manteno

Daily Journal/Tiffany Blanchette

Below-freezing temps couldn’t keep Manteno from turning on its Christmas spirit.

Many gathered Saturday night for the Christmas in Manteno event at the Square on Second as the day began with Santa’s parade followed by visits with Santa and the Holiday Business Walk.

The annual lighting of Main Street and Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony followed, with a little help from the village of Manteno’s coloring contest winners Dominick Halper, Abigail Kennell and Colton Bechard.

Christmas Tree Lane, created by the Manteno Chamber of Commerce, also helped to light up the town with more than 40 trees decorated by local businesses and organizations.
