The good times at the Active Living Expo begin the moment you get out of your car.

That’s because representatives from one of our vendor partners, Golf Cars

Etc., will be driving around the parking lot and offering free golf cart rides right to the front door of the Expo. The rides will be taking place all day, from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Anyone heading that way is welcome to climb aboard one of the shuttles. They’ll also be happy to take you back to your car when you’re ready to go home. There is no official schedule, since they’ll be moving around all day. If you’re ready for a ride, just wait a few minutes for them to circle back. The company will also have a booth at the Expo with several cars on display so you can take a closer look at one of these electric vehicles, especially if you’ve been considering getting one of your own to get around your favorite course or your neighborhood.
