Club Pony Pals News

Third Anniversary Issue

More Pony Fun Starts

Dear Pony Pals

The Green Market is now open for business! If you have some extra apples, head down to that store in downtown Wiggins and you can sell them there. Take the time to do some shopping. There's lots of good stuff to buy and more being added soon. If you have something you want to buy at that store, just ask and you may get it.

Come by on Friday July 17th -- that's our next virtual sleepover, from 8pm to 10pm EST. Pam, Anna, Lulu and I will all be there, chatting and answering questions. Stop by and visit!

There are also two birthday parties scheduled, the next one is for member 5a94 on July 27th, and one in August, too. If you want to schedule a chat on your birthday, just write a note to me on the forum and I will see what we can do.

This week the new regular Pony Pal chat in the afternoons has been great! Pony Pals from Ecuador, New Zealand, England and all over the USA stopped by to visit with their Pony Pals from our game. There was even a short look at one part of our new multiplayer game, where players try to throw around a beach ball.

Whenever you log on, if you see a title that says "Live moderated chat going on now. Click here to join!" that means chat is live! When you click on those words you will be taken to a moderated chat window. Our same forum rules apply. That means no last names, no personal information and nothing mean or creepy.

There are also two birthday parties scheduled, the next one is for member 5a94 on July 27th, and one in August, too.

Our members continue to share their amazing artwork here in the Weekly. The jigsaw entries were so good that it was a tie and both members got prizes.

Our June Story contest entries are waiting for you to read at this link. Voting for our June story contest started on July 1st. We will declare our winner during the July 17 sleepover.   Vote for your favorite story as many times as you want. Our story contest's winner -- chosen by voting members -- will get 2500 Wiggins Bucks. The next two runners-up each get 1000 Wiggins Bucks. Please email your story entries to Webmaster@ClubPonyPals.com
or post it in our forum. Stories can be any length. This is Club PONY Pals so there should be a pony or horse in it somewhere.

ClubPonyPals has another NEW contest: "This Month's Best YouTube Video about ClubPonyPals." Each month we will award 500 Wiggins Bucks to the player who posts the best video about our club. YouTube is a site that has all kinds of content on it and you will need your parents permission to go there. Please make sure and ask your parents!! If you do get permission, you can go to YouTube and search for Club Pony Pals. There are two videos already there. They are automatically entered! Be creative!

This week's high scoring players or math games got 100 Wiggins bucks, the next nine high scoring players got 50 bucks each.   Start solving those math mini games in Pam's game collection in Crandal's barn loft.

Our weekly jigsaw art contest is still going. Each week, the winner gets 100 Wiggins Bucks, a bumper sticker and a bookmark that is redeemable for some virtual pony treats on the sign in page where it says "coupon code."

Bella & Cochise writes

Hey Mrs. Crandal!!! So of course you know Daisy and Splash! Well i dont think that one buck for each time you groom them is enough. I groom horses for a job and i get paid 10 dollars per horse. So maybe you can bring the reward up to 5 bucks?

and also we need more ways to get bucks. Why does the stuff in the shop have to cost so much? I mean really is it practical to have something over ONE THOUSAND bucks?

ok thankyou for your time, Bella and Cochise.

please write back ASAP!

Jane Crandal responds

Dear Iambella Hey and hi! We talked on the chat today. It's so hard to answer questions there, glad you wrote me here. Please read the newsletter, there is lots of information there about contests where you can win bucks! If you need Wiggins bucks right away, the quick solution is to buy some bucks from the store link at the top of our game window. When the Green Market opens you can sell any extra apples you might have to the market, they make excellent apple cider there. That is another way to earn bucks -- pick apples. Until the market opens you can also play mini-games, the math games give you 100 bucks if you get the weekly high score and 50 bucks if you are one of the top ten players. Other mini-games give you a few bucks each time you play them. Check the Wiggins Weekly for contests where you can earn even more Wiggins bucks. As we build out the site there will be even more ways to earn bucks. Watch the Wiggins Weekly e-newsletter to find out how. The law of supply and demand means that grooming Splash and Daisy earns you one buck apiece, that is what Crandals Barn pays. Same deal for the saddles. The prices are based on how much a similar new saddle would cost, actually for as nice as those saddles are they are not expensive. Every item in Kline's is priced just like it would be in a real tack store, that's where the prices were set.
