Stoneybrook Tailgate Contest Winners
 
Many thanks to all who worked so hard decorating their tailgate spaces and tents. Congratulations to the winners of the Stoneybrook Tailgate Contest. They all received a bottle of wine, a balloon and a gift certificate from The Wine Cellar & Tasting Room in downtown Southern Pines.

Most Elegant Tailgate


"Silver Bits and Pieces", from Sanford and Whispering Pines, featured equestrian elegance in black and white. In addition to tablecloths, silver and fine china, they decorated a horse and jockey with black and white toile fabric.


Britany Bridges and Morgan Douglas, decked out in their jockey silks, prepare for an elegant lunch at Stoneybrook.

Best Tailgate Theme

The gang from the Longbranch Saloon won the best Tailgate theme. Costumes included cowboy and cowgirl outfits, sheriffs, and saloon girls. The saloon's makeshift walls displayed WANTED posters of "hardened criminals" (the folks used their pastor's photos...)

Most Equestrian Tailgate


James Garfield-Jefferson of Asheville entertains one of his tailgate neighbors, Mary Harley of Chapel Hill. This is James' 18th year of attendance at Stoneybrook!


Fine China with an Equestrian theme was the centerpiece of this display of simple elegance.


Most Festive Tailgate


The Fayetteville Flamingos flapped their way to victory in the Tailgate contest, winning the title of Most Festive Tailgate.


Not only were flamingos in abundance, but all the colorful tableware topped off a great party.

 

The Flamingos were dressed for every month of the year, from Uncle Sam to Santa Claus.
