Club Pony Pals News
News- Sleepover Scheduled!

Dear Pony Pals

First - Next Sunday is Valentine's Day. Make sure and send all your pals a card. There are a few new Valentines in our gift catalog.

We are holding a virtual barn sleepover on Friday, February 26th from 6 pm to 10 pm Eastern Standard Time. Pam, Anna, Lulu and I will all be online to chat and tell stories. There will be riding lessons every hour for 20 minutes, Pam's games of 20 questions and a room to chat with Anna and Lulu, too. Don't forget to stop by and visit.

As an update, the San Diego Police Department Police Department auction is ongoing. I once heard that a horse's value is winnings plus training, these horses are STILL a bargain. For more information, please click on this link to learn more about what will happen to Wam, Trigger, Major, Junior, Bret and Bandit.

CPP members chose Coloring Contest #11's winning art so start coloring! You can download your Coloring Contest #11 entry form, entry deadline is March 12th.

CC10 entries are in, the voting is open.

You can now vote for the QWERTY keyboard creativity contest.

The January Story & Poem Contest is open for voting now.

Our new virtual riding lessons are each Tuesday, from 6:30 to 7:30 Eastern Time. Lessons are held in the live moderated chat. This is a great way to work on mentally visualizing your riding -- and they are lots of fun, too!

Every day hundreds of new members sign up and ask for Pal requests. Take a moment and see who's just signed on recently with our "Pals, Please Page." Our world has some great ways to meet other pals. Click here to learn more. Please help new members feel welcome - send a card to someone who is new!

Our game changes all the time, if you log in and weird things seem to happen, please clear your computer's cache.  See the instructions here to learn how.

Members ask me all the time "how do I earn more bucks?" Anybody who wants more Wiggins bucks is missing out if they don't enter one of our contests! Details are below. We need funny cartoons, they should be in black and white.

Pals,

Jane Crandal

Pony Pal Thoughts for the Day

Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude,
it does not seek its own interests,
it is not quick-tempered,
it does not brood over injury,
it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth.
It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails.
St. Paul, 1 Corinthians 13:4

_____________

If you don't like yourself, how can you extend love to others.
~ Byron Pulsiferer

_____________

I was nauseous and tingly all over ...
I was either in love or I had smallpox.
~ Woody Allen

_______________

He that falls in love with himself will have no rivals.
~ Benjamin Franklin
