I participated in the first parade (09/04/05) which was certified by Guiness as the largest golf cart parade (over 3,200 carts - held down because Sheriff Farmer said his deputies couldn't handle any more!).

The follow on attempt (in 2010, I think) was a great disappointment, as the organizers hadn't laid out a route where carts could flow freely; sometimes we were bumper-to-bumper not moving for minutes at a time.

A third try at a new record would be great, but it must be very carefully designed, with the full cooperation of The Villages and all authorities.
