Mount up for a good time, and for charity, this weekend and join the polo festivities at the 7th Annual Victory Cup event.

Hooves and mallets will fly when OPCC (formerly Ocean Park Community Center) hosts the polo fundraising event at Will Rogers State Park in Pacific Palisades on Sunday, Oct. 1, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Proceeds will benefit OPCC’s Access Center in Santa Monica, providing food, clothing, counseling and other services to impoverished men, women and children on the Westside since 1963.

The event will include polo matches by the Will Rogers Polo Club, a champagne brunch and divot stomp, silent auction and Kidz Fun Zone with carnival games, face painting, pony rides and petting zoo. Tickets are $100 per person and children 12 and under are free with paid adult. For additional information, call Donna Miller at 310-264- 6646, ext. 235 or e-mail First candidates forum of the election season
