The Winner’s Circle
The ever elegant Rose Marie Bogley was
once again in the winner’s circle under the tall
oak trees at the Upperville Colt and Horse
Show. She took first place while riding sidesaddle
in the Piedmont Invitational Hack class
on The Aviator owned by Dr. Csaba Magassy.
Virginia Fout flew home from L.A. and rode
in family class with the entire Fout clan: mother
Eve, sister Nina and brother Doug, along with
his wife Beth and children Caroline. It was also
good to see actor Tab Hunter, who traveled east
with Allan Glaser for a week of parties and
horses.
Lou and Bill Kennedy had a cookout after
the show one evening at Peakewood Pharm.
The kids splashed in the pool, while the adults
splashed with a few drinks. Michele and Andy
Stevens, Lauren and Rene Woolcott (who
used to own the farm and now live down the
road a piece), Claudia Young, Betty Oare and
Valerie and Guy Dove all imbibed.
Jennifer and Allen Richards were also busy.
First, they hosted a pig roast for friends and
neighbors at their Mount Pleasant Farm in
Delaplane just a few days before the horse show.
They set up several tents and had music from the
Rhythm Junkies and Pat Ramsey and the Blues
Disciples. Then, during the finals of the horse
show, they had a luncheon party in a tent. Off To the Post
