Sunday, June 5th marked a day of celebration as Northshore Magazine and Myopia Polo Club of South Hamilton joined together for the first annual Northshore Magazine Cup. By Lindsay Gabrielski
As home to the oldest Polo fields in America, Myopia Polo Club prides itself in its vast history. History was made yet again on the Myopia Polo Club fields this past Sunday as players and ponies took the field for the inaugural Northshore Magazine Cup.
To celebrate this historic day with friends, family and partners Northshore Magazine hosted a tent reception complete with refreshments and delicious Hor d’oeurves from Tim Hopkins Catering. Though not blessed with a very warm day, the tent was filled with warm greetings and smiling faces. Amongst socializing with old friends and new, all had a splendid time watching (and learning) the exciting sport of Polo. From the coordination and agility of the riders to the speed and grace of their ponies, the match was truly a site to see. Myopia Polo certainly gained some new followers over the weekend !
 Even when the game was between “chukkers” (the Polo term for periods) the excitement remained high. From the tradition of stomping the divots to the less traditional tumble down the stairs and subsequent heroic exit by our Director of Advertising, the day’s events proved that Myopia Polo and Northshore Magazine are quite the team for putting on a show.
At the end of the match Rick Sedler, President of Northshore Magazine, gave the closing remarks preceding the awarding of the winner’s cup to the Blue Team. It was sad to see the day end, but all left full of good food and good memories. All in all, the event was a great success in bringing together friends of Northshore magazine and solidifying a great partnership with Myopia Polo. We at Northshore Magazine cannot wait to make The Cup an annual event and sincerely thank our partners at Myopia Polo and Tim Hopkins Catering for making this a truly spectacular day.
