Club Pony Pals News
New Years Eve Pony Pal Sleepover Success

Dear Pony Pals

Crandals Stables virtual New Years Eve party and sleepover on New Years Eve was a great success. Dozens of Pony Pals from all over the globe stopped by to chat on December 31st.

By popular demand, online virtual riding lessons are now available on Tuesdays, from 6:30 to 7:30 Eastern Time. These are held in the live moderated chat. This is a great way to work on visualizing your riding -- and they are lots of fun, too!

Coloring Contest # 8 is open for voting.

There is still time to Enter Coloring Contest # 9 where the deadline is January 15th.

And this week we need help to choose the art for Coloring Contest #10.

The December story and poem contest will open for voting soon. If you've entered this competition, you will get an email announcing when this contest's entries are available for review. Voting will start January 8th.

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 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

Member Photo Gallery

Hi! here is some pictures of my horses, Boo and Domino. They are cousins, but totally different. they are both 11 year old Quarter Horse mares, Boo's dad is a champ show horse. Boo is the red tiger dun ( I put tiger in the red dun cause she has faint stripes on her legs and ears) and Domino is the buckskin. Domino is sweet and LOVES candy and walking fast and bumpy. Boo is, well, extremly stubbern,hard headed and stuff. and the girl rideing Boo is, well, me. but I hope everyone had a good Christmas! I know I did.

Pony Pal Thoughts for the Day

We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day. ~ Edith Lovejoy Pierce 1904

_____________

New Year's eve is like every other night; there is no pause in the march of the universe, no breathless moment of silence among created things that the passage of another twelve months may be noted; and yet no man has quite the same thoughts this evening that come with the coming of darkness on other nights. ~ Hamilton Wright Mabie 1845-1916

_______________

I think that almost accidentally I hit on something that is quite fundamental to women, which is this gap between how we feel we're expected to be and how we actually are. ~ Helen Fielding
