Christmas on the Square has become a holiday tradition for families throughout Sumter County, bringing residents and visitors together for an afternoon filled with Christmas cheer. This year’s event is expected to feature decorated Christmas trees, vendors, live music, a visit from Santa Claus and more holiday activities.
