True Polo Style

True Polo Style:  What to Wear

Guys, are you looking for advice on what to wear to the 2010 Cobra Polo Classic?  Here are some tips for all the guys attending!

 

Polo Classic style is truly your quintessential Kentucky Derby style.  Wear a crisp oxford and nice blazer or a light suit paired with some comfortable boat shoes or loafers.  Since the weather will still be beautiful and the event is in the afternoon, the best colors will be your soft grays, navy, khaki and pastels.

We know the Parade of Hats is for the ladies…but please, feel free to wear your hat!

Show Us Your Swagger!

Show us your swagger!

Last year, we debuted swag bags at the 2009 Cobra Polo Classic. Our Polo bags were stuffed with wonderful gifts from local donors. We had hair and skin care products from Jaazz Salons, cookies from TASTE Cafe & Gourmet To Go, wine from Townshend Cellars, lip balm from Inland Aesthetic Institute, gift certificates to Tin Roof and the Lincoln Center and great donations from supporters of the Ronald McDonald House Charities Spokane.

This year, we’re looking to fill our swag bags again! it’s the perfect way to get your products and brands into the hands of our loyal polo guests. If you’re interested in gaining exposure for your business in our swag bags, please submit your donation proposal via e-mail with a description and photo  to Valerie Wilkerson at valerie@q.com.

BubbleQ

Tommorrow we are heading out to the polo grounds for the first time this season. Although we're a few months from September we want to begin polo season a bit early this year. It's just another great opportunity for the ladies to don their polo hats!

Tomorrow Spokane will be intoduced to its first BubbleQ. The BubbleQ will be hosted by The Purple Turtle and promises gourmet hamburgers (and a veggie option!) and bubbly champagne, hence the name BubbleQ. Appropriate, no? The event is an invitation-only "Thank You" event for the Cobra Roofing Polo Classic sponsors. It will feature beautiful ice sculptures by Fitzgerald Ice, food from TASTE Cafe and a polo scrimmage on the field. Photos to come!
