Mission Valley Hunt Ball – 90th Anniversary

The Mission Valley Hunt Ball’s 90th anniversary celebration consisted of a whirlwind weekend, filled with friendship, horses and hounds! A Patrons’ Party was held on February 9th at the lovely home of Amanda Curfman-Beringer and Tom Beringer and hosted by Ellen and John Aisenbrey. The following morning, horses and riders rode from the clubhouse, Fin and Feather, into the woods and hills. That evening, guests attended the Ball at Blue Hills Country Club and danced the night away to Valentine and the Knights. Craig Hauser served as the Ball chairman, Patti Gnau was the co-chairman and Carlie and Huntsman Jim Beisel were the honorees.
