Niagara Polo featured two four-chukker games with players from the Toronto Polo Club, traditional divot stomp with bubbly and half-time entertainment.
Niagara Polo is a public demonstration match played on the historic Niagara-on-the-Lake Commons, which long served as a military training ground. Polo was played on this same field by military officers and gentlemen over 100 years ago! Niagara Polo is a signature fundraiser for the Niagara Historical Society & Museum, a not-for-profit community organization that collects, preserves, researches, educates and promotes the history of Niagara-on-the-lake and its communities. Founded in 1895, the Niagara Historical Society opened the first purpose-built museum right beside the Commons in 1907. Visitors today can experience one of the most important collections, reflecting the history of one of the oldest settlements in Ontario. We inspire an appreciation of local history through engaging programs and exhibitions.
