today through the sport ot polo. Having played with Prince Charles at the Tidworth Polo Club, Tareq enjoys friendly competition with the British. He promoted a charity polo match between the United States and England at Bleu Rock Inn’s inaugural match. Salahi reminisced, “I told a friend of mine named Calvert Clark... if you build this polo arena, I will bring you the English polo team that if patroned by the Prince of Wales, but you have ten days to build it.” The carpenters hammered the last nail into the arena as the British team walked towards the gate. Although the U.S. lost by one goal, the event raised about $60,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
