Event Chairs Dee and Beau Van Metre, who expect hundreds, if not thousands, of polo
enthusiasts as well as people who have never seen a polo match but are curious and
want to support Capital Hospice.
Guests will enjoy mimosas, bloody marys and cocktails provided by Bacardi and a lovely
brunch provided by Outback Steakhouse, and will watch two competitive polo matches
of four chukkers each, with a mix of professional and amateur players including Tim
Gannon, co-founder of Outback Steakhouse. The benefit match will pit the Outback-
Booz Allen Hamilton Team against the Black Watch-Van Metre Team.  In addition to
the polo match, activities will be available for children.  During half-time, a memorial
dove release will occur for attendees to honor a loved one.
General Admission Tickets for the benefit match are $10 each, available through
Great Meadow at www.greatmeadow.org.  
Tables for eight under the tent range from $1,000 to $5,000 with sponsorship tables
benefitting from the premier location.  For tickets or information, contact Capital Hospice
