The Calgary Polo Club Offers Exclusive Social Membership
I always joke to my friends that Calgary’s
summer lasts about two seasons – July
and August. Yes, it’s rather short but Calgarians learned how to make the most
out of it.
While the Calgary Stampede is
over, there are still other outdoor spectacles where one can enjoy as a group,
especially if you like to watch riders and horses on the field.
This season, I became a social
member/ ambassador of the Calgary Polo Club. Before I was introduced to all of
this, I had no clue that there is a polo club in this city. In fact, the polo
club has been around since 1890. Located along the eastern slopes of the Rocky
Mountains, the 300 plus acres field attracts competitive polo players to play
matches. It even offers a Riding & Polo Academy taught by professional
instructors.
As a social member for the
Calgary Polo Club, you do not need to own a horse or know how to play polo. An
annual membership fee of $250 per couple or family lets you and your friends to
enjoy watching polo matches up close in a reserve members-only area, complete
with white tent, tables and chairs.
The social membership also gives
you the opportunity to VIP invites and gets you access to members-only events.
You will have the flexibility to bring your own picnic or ask the polo club to
work out catering services if you have a large group. The Ranch House is also
available to book for parties for up to 120 people.
I am rather excited to watch the
polo games on Sunday afternoons. It is an honored to be an ambassador for the
Calgary Polo Club. For the occasion, I was in a photo shoot at the club few
weeks ago with my fellow Calgary Polo Club ambassadors Katrina-Olson Mottahed,
Erica Cook, Ellen Parker, and Satvinder Flore. We got our ‘lavish’ looks thanks
by Tiffany Burns, and the ladies got their hair done by Swizzlesticks Salonspa.

to see you one of the Sunday games in August!
