We only have golf carts for some of the officials at our show - 
Pioneer Steam and Gas Engine Society of NW Pa. No bicycles or ATVs 
allowed.

Hi Beth and Paul                                          I didnt 
find
your posts boring.I think golf carts plus other all terrain 
vichicals
and scooters can be a problem at steam shows.In this day and age 
younger
kids are operating them and not only people that are walking 
around  the
grounds the engine operaters and tractor operaters have to be 
carefull
of them.I like the Butterfield Mn. steam show policy.I showed 
there for
30 yaers.There policy was no all train vehicles.scootors,golf 
cards,
cycles on te show grounds during the show.The only people that had 
golf
carts was the board of directors.and 2 scooters for the fellows 
who run
te parade.The show would provide a cart to take handicap people 
around
the grounds that couldnt walk.I,ve run engines at shows where 
those
types of vehicles run wild and its just a accident waiting to 
happen.One
time i asked the board if I could have a golf cart to go from the
campground to the other side of the show  grounds where the steam
engines were.I got a no,and I park my camper close to the engines 
by one
of the sheds.THe campgrounds at Butterfield are in a grove of 
trees
which helps in the summer heat.          Ted
