Winterfest – ONE Wellington 2012 Announces
International Polo Club Palm Beach as Presenting Sponsor and
Palm Beach International Equestrian Center As Host Venue
The Wellington Chamber of Commerce is very pleased to announce Winterfest – ONE Wellington 2012 will be held December 1st at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center, 3400 Equestrian Club Road in Wellington. The evening begins with a Show Jumping Competition at 6 pm with Winterfest officially kicking off at 7 pm. Back by overwhelming demand, Vanilla Ice will be the headline performer. The sponsors this year are International Polo Club Palm Beach, and ONE Wellington.
John Wash, President of Operations for the International Polo Club Palm Beach will be the Emcee of the event. Festivities include musical and dance performances by local talent, a visit from Santa and his reindeer plus activities for the kids. Mark Bellissimo of Equestrian Sports Productions will be announcing the ONE WELLINGTON HERO. In addition, there will be a food and wine tasting expo, a VIP Sponsor Party, a salute to the troops, retail shopping and vendors offering all sorts of delicious food choices. Of course, everyone attending will be looking forward to the always electrifying performance by local resident Vanilla Ice at the end of the night.
“It’s hard to believe this is our third year doing this.” said International Polo Club Palm Beach President John Wash. “I don’t think anyone understood how big it was going to be…..and then it grew even larger in the second year.” This year’s new venue at Palm Beach International Equestrian Center will be able to meet the needs of an even larger crowd. John said, “Obviously the venue is different this year but it’s not so much about the venue, it’s about continuing a tradition.”
When asked why International Polo Club Palm Beach is always involved with Winterfest, John responded, “Well you know we have always tried to be a good neighbor. International Polo Club is now getting ready to start our tenth polo season. I came onboard six years ago, and one of the things I have always believed in was community involvement. We do so much to try to give back through different activities and events and our neighbors have embraced us so we want to reach back out and embrace the community in their different objectives.” He later added, “We are here to be a major sponsor and to help the Chamber and the local businesses as they have helped us.”
