Friday parades require traffic changes

Clemson University will celebrate its First Friday Parade — an annual event before the first home football game.  This year’s procession will follow highway 93 from Cherry Road to Centennial Boulevard.  However, there will be a slight route change:  procession begins at the intersection of 93 and Cherry Road and participating walking groups will conclude at the Lower Intramural Fields.  Another Friday parade will also require traffic changes in Westminster.  At 5 o’clock Friday evening, the annual Apple Festival Parade will take place and sections of highway 123 through the city will be closed.
