After the successful dress rehearsal on Saturday, all the Glen Haven Park staff were ready to let their hair down and relax. Therefore, it was greatly appreciated when Fiona and Peter, parents of two of our lovely volunteer helpers, invited us all to the Singapore Polo Club. The Polo Club is a very prestigious and grand establishment, with heaps of character - this was the perfect place to spend a relaxed Saturday afternoon and evening. We all enjoyed watching the polo and our young Polo Club members were more than happy to show us around the charmlingly rustic stables (complete with clock tower), point out their favourite horses and share stories of the equine personalities inhabiting the hallowed buildings. After the exertion of ou
r stable tour and cheering on the polo game, everyone enjoyed the delicious food and reviving drinks, so when the band started up all were keen for a singalong and a bit of dancing. a BIG thank you to Fiona and Peter for a wonderful night!(photos - top to bottom: Tom, Paula and Jacobine enjoying the polo; Polo club member, Gladys, with one of her favourite ponies; Fiona explaining finer points of polo to Tom; entry into Polo Club guarded by resident security guard, cute kitty 'Ginger'; and the beautiful statue and decor of the Polo Club.)
