Default Did you miss the Christmas Golf Cart Parade ?

If you happen to miss this years Christmas Golf cart parade I put together a 8 minute video and posted it on YOUTUBE.com.

Heres the link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4i0uidU_dI

Or go to www.youtub.com and do a search on "villages golf cart parade" and with a little luck it should come up.

The parade was great and lasted about 1 hr. There sure are a lot of people that put a lot of effort into making those carts look a little Christmas. Now if it would only SNOW for Christmas (someplace) !

Default Great!!

Dadspet...

Thank you so much for taking the time to assemble the video and upload it to youtube for anyone to enjoy.

Seeing as how I'm laid up with a new knee, I wasn't able to attend this year. Your video makes me feel like I was there.

Great Job!!!

Great post on "You Tube" and shows the Villages Christmas Parade is totally different than most communities.......as The Villages itself is different!!

Thanks so much.
This was my third Christmas parade and I just love them. Great for little ones, more they see at their level than like a Macy parade.

Default Golf Cart Christmas Parade

As always, the parade was fantastic. We had company from out of town and they loved. They did not want to go back home. It is so nice at the Polo Field, lot of room, lots of vendors and entertainment.
