Cohle says the match brought back memories of when he used to bring his children to see league matches at the field three decades ago. But he also likes the constant action in polo, as the four riders on each team constantly are chasing the ball. And when the horses run near the sideline, fans can feel the ground shake. Burns, a new student at the Army War College at Carlisle Barracks, says he grew up in Pittsburgh and attended Penn State. Organizer Tom Fitzgerald says it's unusual for this area to have a polo club, since most are found near larger metropolitan areas.
People are genuinely interested in polo.
Corvettes coming to Carlisle Five Corvette concept cars will roll onto the Carlisle Fairgrounds Aug. 25-27 for the annual Corvettes at Carlisle show. The concept Corvettes dating from the 1990s to the 1960s are among 1,800 show cars and an all-Corvette car corral and auction at the fairgrounds off Spring Road. Brought to Carlisle by GM, the Astro has seldom been seen in public other than an appearance at the 1968 New York Auto Show. Another concept with an aluminum body and chassis on display is the 1972 Reynolds Aluminum Corvette. Its engineering was not enough to convince GM to abandon fiberglass as Corvette's sole body material, says Carlisle Productions spokesman Bob Hall.
