The annual Winter Garden Golf Cart Parade took off at dusk Saturday, Dec. 17, with 165 entries cruising the historic streets of Winter Garden. The line-up took place at Bradford Park, on Division Street, and one-by-one the carts, decked out in their holiday glory, pulled out of the park.
Judges were city commissioners Kent Makin and Bob Buchanan, Mayor John and Linda Rees and Orange Country District 1 Commissioner Betsy VanderLey.
The winners were the Rollis and Reese family, with their flamingo cart, in first place and the Robinson family in second. They received a $150 gift card to Chef’s Table and a $100 gift card to Urban Flats, respectively.
The event raised $3,431 for the Edgewood Children’s Ranch.
After the parade, a drive-in movie was held at the downtown pavilion.
