Like Polo at King Family? Tell the County

Personally, I think having polo at King Family Vineyards is a tremendous addition to Crozet.  More than 200 people attend polo. 🙂

From NBC29:

A Crozet vineyard is encouraging fans of its free Sunday polo to help keep the popular event going.

Changes to Albemarle County code now require King Family Vineyards get a special use permit if the matches attract more than 200 people.

 

And a comment there:

Dear Friends of Roseland Polo at King Family Vineyards, We hope you have enjoyed watching polo over the last 10 years as much as we have enjoyed hosting it! In the next few weeks, King Family Vineyards will be applying to Albemarle County for a Special Use Permit that will allow us to continue Sunday afternoon polo in its present format. If you would like to see polo continue, please send your message of support to Amelia McCulley, Zoning Administrator, Albemarle County, at [email protected]. Thanks for your support and we hope to see you again next year! Cheers, The King Family

 

Heck, if you don’t like polo, tell them that too.
