About the inspiration…
As fellow Va Polo alum and longtime friend Dick Latham said of Polly’s grandfather Remo:
“Of all the people who have been important contributors to UVA Polo, Remo stands among the top of that list. Those who knew him were indeed fortunate and those who did not can thank him in absentia for what he helped build at Virginia Polo.”
Clearly among his many contributions to Virginia Polo was instilling the desire to give back in his family, who carry on his legacy.
