Dear Pony Pals

Our next virtual barn sleepover will be this Friday, September 4th from 6 pm to 10pm Eastern time. The Pony Pals will start school the following week, so summer is officially over. Sign on and live moderated chat with the Pals in real time!

There are now many, many profiles up on member home pages. Have you created yours yet? It's a great way to make new Pals. You can look at other player's ponies and learn a little about them. If you send them a gift they also automatically get a "be my Pal" request. You can even look and see who they are Pals with.

We have winners for our first ever Poem Contest! Deadline to get your entry in for Contest #2 is September 11th. Winners get 3000 Wiggins bucks, 1000 Wiggins bucks to each of the runners up

Get friend with a different email address than yours to sign up for a new account. Then make them your Pal by sending them a gift. Write this text to your new Pal in a message

NEW PONY PAL BONUS

and you each will get 50 Wiggins bucks. Extended by popular demand until September 31st, 2009, there is no limit to the number of new pals you can sign up to get this bonus. Anybody who wants a saddle or more Wiggins bucks is missing out if they don't try this!

Dear Pam, Anna, Lulu & Mrs. C

Its me, ging. I thought about checking my w-mails before I left Virginia and Anna asked if I could send a postcard. Thank you for looking in on Crissy. Sorry about the notebook paper, I didn't have any other. I visited my relatives in the Netherlands and my Aunts said that I could go to Pony-Camp! I rode a pony named Kiarni. I don't know what it means but she was really sweet and I was glad that my instructor spoke some English! Kiarni was a great jumper and we jumped 4 feet!. I never met a 13 hand mare who could jump 4 feet! Back home in Virginia we only jump 2'3" or the highest I've jumped in Virginia was when I did my hunter/jumper classes at a horses show. I jumped 3' 2" on a super athletic sandy-dun named Sand-stone. Where do you live? Connecticut? I'll write to you when I'm back in the USA...

Dear Pony Pals,

I NEED YOUR HELP!! My registered fleabitten grey Arabian Mare,Dixie (Fleabitten grey is light grey with brown flecks),Just recently had a foal!!! I named the foal Comanche and it's so beautiful!

ArabianGirl1 photo

Anyway,I need the pony pals' help because me and my parents and going to get him registered,since his grandfather was a famous show jumper that I think was in the olympics! What should his registered name be? Dixie's is "The Desert Love" and his sire's registered name was Mondmiresche.

mondmiresche

His sire's regular name was Memphis,and he is the only stallion I have EVER seen that little kids can pet!!!He is ridden,showed,and petted by kids a little older than you! NO he isn't a gelding. (Comanche's sire is a trekhaner,europian warmblood horse) Do you have any suggestions for Comanche's registered name? Comanche is bay with a black mane and tail,3 stockings,and 1 wide blaze. This message is going to all the pony pals and Mrs.Crandal. Will you click here to w-mail me with any suggestions please? This is Comanche.
