The Crouse Health Foundation's 9th annual Polo for Preemies was a big success, raising more than $140,000 for the NICU at Crouse. Held on July 26th at the Skaneateles Polo Club, the event drew a crowd of over 600 guests.

These funds directly benefit the Crouse “Little Fighters”, premature and critically-ill newborns who receive exceptional care from the region's highest-level NICU. The Crouse NICU serves 17 hospitals in a 14-county region.

Beyond the polo match, attendees enjoyed a variety of family-friendly activities in the kids zone, a silent auction, and plenty of raffles. 

A huge thank you goes out to the dedicated volunteers and sponsors who made this event possible.

Up next for the Crouse Health Foundation is the 2026 Tribute Evening, honoring Melanie Littlejohn on Friday, October 2nd. This year, Tribute will be in a new location: the brand new Grand Expo Center at the Turning Stone Resort and Casino. Get your tickets and find out more at crouse.org/tribute2026.
