Christian Manning

 

 

When I say the name Manning who's the first person that comes to your mind?  Peyton or Eli Manning right?  Not in this case.  I'm talking about my boy Christian Manning from Hartsville SC.
Hartsville is the largest city in Darlington County, South Carolina, United States.  The population was 7,764 at the 2010 census.  Mel Pennington is the current mayor.  Hartsville was chosen as an All-America City in 1996 and again in 2016.  Hartsville has also been a National Arbor Day Foundation Tree City since 1986.  Hartsville is the home of Coker College and a branch of Florence–Darlington Technical College.  It is also the site of the South Carolina Governor's School for Science and Mathematics, a public boarding high school.  The city is served by the Hartsville Regional Airport.  Hartsville is home to several major corporations including Sonoco Products Company and Duke Energy Progress.  Agrium Inc. maintained a Rainbow Fertilizer plant in Hartsville until it was destroyed by fire on February 14, 2011.  Agrium has chosen not to rebuild in Hartsville. https://www.hartsvillesc.gov/

         Christian is originally from Hartsville but moved to Florence SC in the beginning of his freshman year of high school. http://www.cityofflorence.com/ He chose to come to SC State to keep his promise to his friend who also chose to come to SC State but passed away before that could happen.  Manning is Broadcast Communication major, and he has a passion for music.  He writes songs, sing, rap, and produce music as well.  In his free time from work he enjoys dancing, drawing, and playing basketball.  Before Christian leaves this earth he wants to travel to Africa, Spain, and New York.  Christian is inspired to do great things in his life.  He have his mind set on what he want to do, and I expect him to do great things in his life.  All I can tell you is watch out because this guy is something special.
