| Why Polo? |
It is one of the only sports that everyone one is equal men and women of all ages. It is one of the only sport that lets you go as fast as you can while hitting a little ball on the back of horse. I have found that it is the only thing I do that makes me not think of work or anything else that would cause stress. |
| Why Cedar Valley? |
Tammy and I started a club that is for everyone. A polo club that is social, friendly, fun, safe, and open to everyone. All you need is one or more horses to play. A club that has polo for all levels from the beginners to the what ever level you think you are. |

Phil made me join and it's in my own back yard. Emphasis is on fun polo, friends old and new, and family instead of politics….. |
