August 7, 2011 (Saratoga Polo Association)

Today I am off to watch the Whitney Cup Polo Challenge at the Saratoga Polo Association.  Here I am with friends Mary Catherine, Julie, Denise, and Paula in front of the Lilly Pulitzer jeep. 


This was my very first visit to the Saratoga Polo Association (which was founded in 1898 and is one of the four oldest Polo clubs in the United States), but I can assure you, it will not be my last.  It was very exciting to watch.  I can barely hit a golf ball and watching the polo team hit the ball while riding a horse and swinging a very long club, so very fun!    

This is a great way to spend the afternoon and although club house admission is $25 per person, you can take a more casual approach and enter through the general admission area and pay $25 a carload and tailgate your way through the event.  What fun and right in our back yard!
