The day was capped off with the annual Coon Dog Day Street Dance, which featured music coordinated by Johnny Perez. It drew one of the biggest crowds organizers had seen in years, they said.
The local Girl Scout Troop, led by Elizabeth Truman, was among the many participants in the annual parade down Main Street.
Spartanburg’s Hillbilly Shrine Club was named the Civic Group winner.
