GLENNON GALLOP

Photos and story by Bryan Schraier
IPs and reserved tailgaters recently enjoyed a polo match sans polo at the annual Glennon Gallop held at Kraftig Polo Club in Defiance. The match lacked actual polo because rain had wet the field too much for the horses. As a result, attendees gathered in an large off-the-field tent. Proceeds from the event went to the Danis Pediatric Center at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital. An increased demand for highquality pediatric care has prompted expansion at the main campus, to serve more patients than the 20,000 already seen annually. The Glennon Gallop featured silent and live auctions, food and drink, and a number of different fashion vendors purveying everything from hats to western wear and jewelry. After the food, auction and program, guests were serenaded by the sweet sounds of Washington, Missouri’s Pik’nLik’n. David and Jan Braswell
