It’s time to dust off your derby dresses and pretend you’re an extra in “Pretty Woman” because Neighbor to Neighbor is hosting their annual Polo Championship on Saturday, October 3. This year’s event will feature a polo match on the lovely grounds of The Ranch Events Complex in Loveland.
A VIP reception begins at 1 p.m. but everyone is welcome at 2 p.m. to enjoy food, beverages, a silent auction and to chat with your favorite polo players.
If you’re a diehard CSU fan and are disappointed that this match interferes with game time — don’t worry! There will be a lounge at the match with a TV live-streaming the game.
The match officially begins around 2:45 p.m., including the traditional divot stomp, a hat contest and a champagne toast. After all is said and done, there will be a live auction, photos and a reception, which concludes around 5 p.m.
The Neighbor to Neighbor Polo Championship is a wonderful opportunity to do something out of the box on your Saturday afternoon, and to support a good cause simultaneously.
Neighbor to Neighbor’s mission is to open doors and advance lives by providing stable housing, financial education and support, and by preventing homelessness and foreclosure for Larimer County residents. The Polo Championship is a fun way to support this mission—one that is truly changing lives in the community through something as tangible as housing. Funds raised by the Polo Championship specifically support N2N’s Resident Services and emergency rent assistance programs. The Group is proud to be a sponsor of this event for the second consecutive year.
Get your tickets! Individual tickets are $55 and two tickets are $100.
You think we were kidding about the derby dresses? Nope! “Pretty Woman” derby attire is in fact suggested. Men, grab your suspenders. And women, whip out those big, floppy hats and join us on October 3 at the annual Neighbor to Neighbor Polo Championship.
Need a little inspiration? Here are some photos from last year’s match that might help!
