Edit: I goofed on the cost. The 5-day rental rate is $175 :)

Hi rally goers,

At the 2007 rally in Goshen, several people asked me "during the rally" if I had any Golf Cart rentals. I had not planned on it, so I had nothing to offer.

Recalling this, in 2009, I made rentals available "prior to the rally". No one took me up on it.

As the rallies get larger, we have more people who would like / need a Golf Cart. So once again, I want to put a rental option together.

The first official day of the rally is Wednesday, June 15th. For my own needs, I am having a number of Golf Carts brought in on Monday for use Tuesday through Saturday. My carts are all spoken for by the Service Team and my Rally Team.

So what I want to put together is a 5-day Golf Cart rental for those who want/need it. While you may not be able to be in early enough to use it Tuesday, for simplicity sake, and to get all the carts here in advance, it's what I need to do.

That said, the deal is $175 for a 5-day rental. This includes delivery. So the rental begins on Tuesday morning and ends on Saturday evening.

So, the purpose of this thread is to poll those who feel they will be coming to the rally and are interested in this Golf Cart Rental offer.

Poll question is: If Golf Carts were made available for 5-day Rental for $175 - do you want one?

Thanks,

Jim

I would certainly be interested in sharing one if I had a neighbor that was close and wanted to get in on the deal.

That's just what I was thinkin' Ray! We might need one depending on how the "ole hip" is feeling! So the answer Jim, is probably yes...

I think it would be a good idea... we would most likely take one... Bette's knee is not the best. We might be interested in sharing also with close neighbor.

I too would probably want one if things all pan out as we get closer to the rally date.

If brother Tom rents one I will just ride along with he and Judy and be happy to let him pay.

The Golf cart offer is really a bonus for the Rally. Heartland Owners Rally has grown each year and we expect that to be the case this year as well. Jim B makes sure at the Rally there are carts to transport those attending the various sessions and events. Try as they might, the volunteer staff can't always get to everyone as they make their way through the Rally grounds. (the grounds is always growing larger)

Traveling with a group? Maybe another couple? The idea of sharing the use and the cost of a cart makes good sense !

It's going to be a Great Heartland Owners Rally !!

Jon,

They have 2 of them and I have already snagged them for my team. I have asked for 2 more for my rally team. I may not get them so I doubt there will be any 6-passenger rentals available.

Sharing is a great idea if you feel your pals and you can really work it out.

The ability to rent a golf cart will be part of the rally registration. One couple will have to commit to the rental and pay at time of rally registration. Then you can get the other half from your sharing pals.

Bank Error in your Favor!

Well, sort of. But it's not $50 - it's $25 :)

Seriously folks, I was running several scenarios when I put all this together. One of them was a 6-day rental and the other was a 5-day rental. One I added the delivery fee into and the other I forgot. Oopsie.

Anyway - it's all good now and it's even better news for you.

To clarify - this is a 5-day rental from Tuesday morning through the Saturday evening. The cost is: $175

I apologize for the error in price when first posted and the inconsistency from the thread to the poll question on 5-day versus 6-day.

If this $25 savings helps anyone out - awesome!

Another reason those golf carts don't have Rear View Mirrors... Courtesy drivers are sworn to secrercy...

What happens at the Rally... provide camp fire chat material for year to come.... {{ GRIN }}

I've placed my yes vote. I will share the cost 50/50 with the closest neighbor. I believe I was in 441? (right behind SmokeyBare).
