John served as club president from 1990 to 2015 and he founded the club's recognized Polo School. He's taught polo to hundreds of Chicago area beginners including Nadir Khan and Megan West who now are the school's lead instructors. John holds the honorary title of Chairman Emeritus.
Dr. Megan West: Megan was first introduced to polo at Purdue University in 2007. She joined the Barrington Hills Polo Club in 2008 and has since taught lessons both at Purdue and in the Chicago area.
