Tips and Ideas for 1st Place Easter Golf Cart
•· Be sure to clean the golf cart, both inside and out.
•· Use tape that will not damage the surface of the cart.
•· Wrap green tinsel, garland or artificial grass around the polls of the cart. Tape it down to secure it. Tape some to the top of the cart as well, to the rims of the wheels, and to the hood. Try to tape as much of it as possible to the golf cart without interfering with driving.
•· Have someone in the back seat throwing out candy.
•· Tape down a stuffed Easter bunny to the top of the cart or a basket with painted eggs. Tape a few eggs around the rabbit and basket to the AstroTurf. Tie balloons to the basket.
•· Dress someone up in an Easter bunny costume and have them ride in the back seat.
•· Line the golf cart seats, where no one will be sitting, with other Easter paraphernalia.
•· Hang items from the poles and roof of the cart. Such as painted eggs, Easter egg candy, baskets and various chocolate
•· Put Easter Balloons on your cart. You don't have to fill them with helium but to add height to the project, helium balloons are perfect.
•· String bright battery-powered lights to the golf cart frame to add extra Pizazz.
•· Go to the local Joanne's Fabrics and purchase a decorate Easter Cloth. Line the golf cart seat with the cloth by pulling out the seat, covering it with the cloth and setting the seat back into place. Tuck the cloth into any crevices wherever possible to hold it in place.
•· Add additional items to the steering wheel. For safety reasons, ensure they don't interfere with driving.
•· Test drive the cart to ensure none of the items interfere. Turn some corners and gain speed to ensure everything stays in place. Very important for safety reasons. You don't want to put your passengers at risk or other passengers from other carts at risk.
