2020 Polo Classic
Sunday, September 13 from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM
Great Meadow Foundation, 5089 Old Tavern Rd, The Plains, VA
The National Sporting Library & Museum (NSLM) is excited to announce that its 2020 Polo Classic will take place on Sunday, September 13th at Great Meadow in The Plains, Virginia. This event will feature two top tier polo matches, the Founders Cup and the Mars Cup, and a parade of the Orange County Hounds. Bring your canine companions as they are invited to participate in the Dog Divot Stomop Sponsored by NUTRO™ where they will have the chance to win Best Turned Out!
The format of the event will differ from years past, and has been planned with the safety of spectators, players, sponsors, and NSLM staff as the top priority. In lieu of the Founders Pavilion and standard tailgate options, two tailgate packages will be available for purchase. Both tailgate packages will be fifteen feet wide, accommodating a maximum of six guests. A twelve-foot gap will be left between each tailgate to ensure proper social distancing between each party. We ask that all guests remain within the boundaries of their tailgate during the matches. Included with each tailgate package is a commemorative picnic basket and gourmet lunch for six, two bottles of sparkling wine from Bouvet Ladubay, and two bottles of wine from Greenhill Vineyards. Though a six-foot table with linen and six chairs will be provided, NSLM encourages spectators to bring additional décor for a chance to win our Best Tailgate Award.
