Polo Match to Benefit Youth Villages


Have you ever wanted to see a live polo match but didn’t know where to go? Look no further!


The Memphis Polo Club hosts a benefit tailgating picnic for Youth Villages on Saturday, September 19. Come enjoy the charming sport of polo while enjoying the picturesque 200-acre Memphis Polo Club farm, and supporting the Youth Villages—all in one fun-filled afternoon.This special event for Youth Villages is open to everyone, so spread the word. The match starts at 2 p.m. and will last two hours, but feel free to come early, stay late, socialize, and enjoy yourself. A concessions stand will be available, but bring food, drinks, umbrellas, or whatever you like to tailgate with. Free pony rides will be provided for children at half-time, so bring the whole family! Also, get ready to continue a longstanding halftime tradition- the stomping of the divots.The Memphis Polo Club, in scenic Rossville, Tenn., is just 45 minutes from downtown but feels worlds away from the city.


Tickets are $10 per person, and kids under 10 get in free. Tickets will be sold at the gate or through Paypal. Most proceeds from ticket sales go to Youth Villages. Come support our community while enjoying the thrilling sport of polo!Go to our website for more details: http://www.memphispoloclub.com/
