Default Halloween Convoy

I'm forming a committee to put together the idea of a decorated golf cart convoy that will travel to 20 homes. The "homes" need to be willing to serve a "beverage of the night" to the convoy participants. The participants can also be in the convoy and only need to skip the home before theirs. In the first group of ten homes and the second group of homes there will be a "hor Doerves" table. Ten minutes per host is the maximum time allowed and upon completion we will gather at lighted a rec center and vote on the best decorated cart
This is "l2ridehd" idea and help me here my friend, do I have this correct??
By reply to this thread please convey your interest in this venture so I can start a list and make a map
The convoy is not limited to any number so the more the merrier
Other suggestions are also invited
Halloween night Friday the 31st of October
Handie :joke:

And I think you said in Chat that the carts will all be chained together with one designated driver. Correct? 1rnfl

This is a great idea Handie and ilove2ride. Wish I were going to be there at the end of the month. Hey, maybe I can just . . . . be there. I'll think about it.

Handie, count us in. If we dress up like Canadians, does that count as a costume? :2cool:

I'd say it will take a couple of bushels of maples leaves. And that's just my bottom half. :yikes: Maybe I'll stick with a large Canadian flag.
I'm practicing making moose hor d'oeuvres as we speak.

Will your route include the central western area or will you be be sticking around the LSL/Duval/Hadley area?

Only wondering if 18 drinks (witch's brew?) are a bit much? My personal limit is 2-3 when driving and 3-4? when a passenger. Maybe I can be the lead cart drinking water with chain pulling everyone else along.?........Is house #4-#20 in big trouble if someone gets in an accident on way home?? ..............I love the decorating carts and dressing up idea! I personally would rather dress up, BYOB, decorate carts, convoy to both squares, act silly, dance, crash a few parties, find Julia and get home safe. Just my .02........... I will be at Crispers to see what you plan!
