The Annual Jimmy Funk Golf Cart Parade
31 golf carts rolled into Rec Park starting at 9:30 AM — filled with parents, grandparents, plenty of excited kids, and even a few four-legged copilots!
The parade route was lined with smiling spectators, waving flags and giving thumbs-up to every cart that passed by. It was a wonderful show of community spirit, laughter, and patriotism.
💬 A huge thank you to everyone who decorated, drove, cheered from the sidelines, and helped keep this special tradition alive.
🎉 And an extra special shout-out to Stephana and Kevin MacDonald for organizing this year’s event — we couldn’t have done it without you!
Let’s keep the momentum rolling and make next year’s parade even bigger and better!

🚤 Dock Signs, Safety, and New AED at Rec Park!
For our members with boat docks, you may want to consider adding one of these classy and highly visible 911 boat dock signs. They’re just $32 each and are a great way to help emergency services locate your dock quickly in the event of an emergency.
The 911 Task Force visited us on March 1, 2025, and gave an excellent presentation attended by more than 20 members. Many of those who attended took extra materials for their neighbors — thank you!
📌 How to Order:
Fill out the dock sign application form. Leave the dock address blank.
After submitting, I’ll send you an aerial photo “snip” of your dock to confirm the location.
Orders typically take about 4 weeks to arrive (our first batch took a little longer).
Consider ordering two signs — one vertical (for visibility from the water) and one horizontal (facing your home). This way, whether a guest is on the dock or nearby, they can give 911 the exact location if needed.
🆘 NEW: AED Installed at Rec Park
We’ve also added an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) under the Pavilion. The 911 call center has it registered, so they know it’s available in an emergency.
💬 Looking for Volunteers
We’re looking for someone to help coordinate CPR and First Aid training. It’s free, and everyone who attends will receive a complimentary first aid kit.
We’ll be using the Lake Gaston Estates website to host an interactive calendar and sign-up forms — stay tuned!
Let’s continue making Lake Gaston Estates a safer and more prepared community!
