Prince Harry's First Official Visit to the U.S.

Today I read in News Week magazine about Prince Harry and his first official visit to the United States. He came to the U.S. to play a game of polo in support of a charity for AIDS, orphans and impoverished kids in South Africa. Along with Prince Harry in supporting the cause was Madonna, Marc Jacobs, Chloe Sevigny, Kate Hudson and LL Cool J.
Team Sentebale was the team Prince Harry played with. They were decked out in all white uniforms. Their opponents were the Black Watch. On this team was Ignacio Figueras an Argentinian polo player and also the face of Ralph Lauren fragrances. The game was close and tied until the last few moments. Prince Harry swiftly passed the ball to his teammate who scored the winning goal!
I think its great that Prince Harry made a visit to the States to help out the kids in need. It shows he is following in his mothers footsteps.

  1. Kelsey, I am fascinated with the royal family and found the fact that Prince Harry is making his first official visit to the
    U.S. very fascinating. I would have loved to be a spectator in the crowd at the polo match.
