The USA vs. Scotland Polo Match will take place on Saturday June 19th in Portsmouth RI, and Bay Club at Mattapoisett Director of Cultural Activities and Events John McCormack  has organized an off property picnic for members before the match.  The tailgate picnic will be prepared by Bay Club at Mattapoisett Executive Chef Jim Mercer’s crew and enjoyed by members and their friends on the grounds of the Newport Polo Club.

Scottish fans from throughout the region will be at the match, wearing kilts and waving ‘the Saltire’ (St. Andrews cross) in lively support of their fellow countrymen as Scotland attempts to defend its last victory.  The polo matches are a longstanding tradition in Newport, dating back more than 130 years.  This picnic is certain to be a fresh twist on a New England classic.

The Bay Club at Mattapoisett is a country club with an eighteen hole championship level golf course and residential property located in Southeastern MA.   To arrange a private tour please contact Dave Andrews via e-mail or phone, 508-758-9543.
