Santa’s Christmas Polo Cup @ WPG
Time: 10am-3pm PDT
Stable: WPG Stables
Host: Jo Ronin
Having gotten a tad drunk last year, Santa woke up mid-February to find that Donner and Blitzen had eloped and Prancer had lost a limb in some sledging accident. He therefore spent a lot of the summer months selecting and training up his replacement reindeer. Then, last week, one of their antlers fell off, unmasking the reindeer for a pony in disguise.
Rudolph was quite accepting, but Dasher was having none of it claiming that it went against tradition to have a none-reindeer pulling the sleigh. As a demonstration that ponies are as fleet of hoof as a reindeer and also able to shift as heavy load, Santa has decided to show off the abilities of ponies to his reindeer in the Christmas Cup.
Santa will be venturing from Lapland to the warmer climate of Wild Pony Girls Stable at 10am SLT for an afternoon of pre-Christmas polo knock-out tournament. Games will be played to the SL Polo League rules. The wining team will be presented with Santa’s Christmas Polo Cup prior to socialising, eggnog and making merry.
Those wishing to play should RSVP to Jo Ronin directly (or through Vivianne Taylor or Ralna Payne).
Should anyone wish to provide presents to go under the tree, please contact Jo Ronin or Vivianne Taylor
