The National Polo Center was the site of a luncheon and pop-up shopping event hosted by the iconic Bal Harbour Shops to officially launch the $100,000 Kristen Baran Charity Hunter Class. This year’s competition to benefit the Neil S. Hirsch Family Boys & Girls Club of Wellington will take place on Friday, February 7, 2025, at Wellington International, drawing top riders and horses from across the country.
The event brought together equestrian enthusiasts, philanthropists, and fashion aficionados. The kickoff event highlighted the generous support of Bal Harbour Shops and an impressive lineup of luxury vendors, including Dolce & Gabbana, Golden Goose, Lanvin, Elisabetta Franchi, Etro, Balmain Paris, Monnalisa, Assouline, Addict, and Santa Maria Novella.
“Last year, the inaugural Baran Hunt Ball was an incredible success and so well supported by the equestrian community. The amazing thing is that this event is shaping up to be even better, thanks to the impressive turnout at this luncheon. A huge thank you to Kristen Baran and her team for creating this much anticipated event to again benefit our Wellington Club,” said Jaene Miranda, President and CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County.
