Best Fashions at Radnor Races & A Muddy Good Time
Best Fashions at Radnor Races & A Muddy Good Time
On May 19, 2018 Dr. Thanuja Hamilton and I headed to the The Radnor Hunt Races as they celebrated its 88th Anniversary with a traditional steeplechase. I’ve been going to the races for the past 9 years, as I remember my sister Judy dressed me for the first one and it was shortly before she passed away. In the 9 years since I’ve attended they’ve never had an all day rainy day, so I was interested to see what that would be like, as well as to see what people would wear.
Of course the most important reason I was going as all proceeds from the event benefited the land and water preservation programs of the Brandywine Conservancy in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania,
and if you head out to the Chadds Ford there you will see a lot of open space, beautiful rolling hills.
Definitely looking smart: Andrew Ross and Betsy Ross at the Groebel Tail Gate Party
Laurie Wightman (editor of The Scout Mainline) and Robert Baldry
Paul Marshall and Julie Marshall, James Beard Foundation
Paul is taking over the space where Sbraga was located at Broad & Lombard. The new eatery will be called Fraternité, a French American cuisine, with a full oyster bar. Look for Fraternité to open it’s doors in August.
