SANFORD, Fla. – Golf Cart Gurus, a business that — as the name might imply — deals in golf carts and parts, is hosting a city-wide race through Sanford May 29 to benefit U.S. service members.
The “2nd Amazing Race,” as the group calls it, will allow teams of two-to-four people to participate in competitions at a variety of businesses throughout Sanford, starting from Celery City Craft Beer Garden and ending at George’s Tavern.
