Meadow Matches to be held Saturday June 21st

How nice to be living in an area of the U.S. where polo is celebrated with such excitement.  The upcoming June 21st Meadow Matches was even recommended by Worth Magazine as one of the top events in June “Worth Flying to” in 2008 and 2009.  Featured sponsors include: Aston Martin, Legal Times, Akin Gump, and MicroStrategy.  This year’s Honorary Chairman is local software CEO and philanthropist, Michael Saylor of MicroStrategy.

Please take a minute to read the following taken from www.meadowmatches.org about this “worthy” event:

Meadow Matches is one of the largest polo events on the East Coast, and features a day of exciting polo matches including The 5th Annual Courage Cup match - featuring the talented kids of the Work to Ride program playing along with professional polo players and celebrities.  Also included in the day will be the First Chukker exhibition match, and the Legal Times’s Gavels and Mallets Segway Polo Challenge featuring participants from notable law firms in Washington, DC. This exciting day of polo matches brings Washington’s professionals, socialites and the polo community together for a day of charity, champagne and chukkers!

The Courage Cup is an IRS designated 501(c) (3) non-profit corporation which was established to help at-risk urban youth. We support programs in the mid-Atlantic region which give disadvantaged children individualized attention and a positive alternative activity to keep them in school and off the streets. In addition to supporting these programs financially, we also recruit volunteers for their activities.

Attend The Courage Cup’s Meadow Matches by purchasing a tailgate spot or tent and throwing your own party.

Luxury Tents on the Berm at Meadow Matches

Our luxury custom tents are located in a prime location on the hill overlooking the polo field. Besides the incredible view, your tent will be located on the same side of the field as the VIP tent which hosts sponsors, polo players, celebrities and the media. (please go to www.meadowmatches.org for more info!)

Sideline Tailgate Spots

These tailgate packages are for tailgate spots located on the side of the polo field across from the berm. These spots put you in the middle of the action - both on the field and off! (please go to www.meadowmatches.org for more info!)

We hope to see you out at the Sheila C. Johnson Field in The Plains, VA on June 21st!
