Yeahhh, if we’re being honest, the math is mathing. 😂
 
It is Autism Acceptance Month, which feels like the perfect time to say this clearly: autism is not a scary outcome, a punchline, or something to use to stir up fear.
And yet, some people still act like it is, while living in a world shaped every single day by neurodivergent minds.
 
From science to medicine to technology to education, so much of what helps move us forward exists because people think differently, ask better questions, catch patterns others miss, and stick with problems long enough to help all of us learn more: HELLO NEURODIVERSE INDIVIDUALS! 
 
Deep thanks to the neurodivergent community for all the ways you expand knowledge, challenge outdated thinking, and make this world better.
 
If you want to learn more about common misconceptions about autism and how you can better support the neurodivergent community, check out our incredible YouTube video where Andi Put @mrsspeechiep, and I chat about autism characteristics, explain them in more detail, with some visuals submitted by this awesome community. You can watch it by searching the title “PDT Podcast: signs of autism in children parents should know” in YouTube.

What is something you wish more people understood about autism or neurodivergence?

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Kip Hering, after a long and courageous battle with cancer.

Kip was an extraordinary man and a cornerstone of the history of this ranch and polo club. He proudly carried on the club founded by his father, Doc Hering, in 1956, preserving its spirit while welcoming generations of players, families and friends.

Kip lived a life deeply rooted in polo. He was 88 years old and continued playing the sport he loved until his mid 80’s, a true testament to his passion, grit, and joy for the game. One of his favorite quotes from his father, Doc Hering “polo is for fun,” perfectly captured who he was. To Kip, polo wasn’t just competition, it was about friendship, laughter, sportsmanship and camaraderie.

So many memories made here exist because of the foundation Kip built and protected for decades. While we mourn his loss, we are profoundly grateful for the legacy he leaves behind. His values, generosity and love for polo will continue to live on at Lakeside Polo Club and this ranch for years to come.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Kip’s family and loved ones during this difficult time. He will be deeply missed, but never forgotten. Rest in peace Kip

The Bankhead Family

This info is from a Facebook post on 12/23 by the Lakeside Polo Club and reported by Su Tanges. . I have no other info at this time. So sad. Kip will be missed.
