Club Pony Pals News
Sleepover Scheduled This Friday

Dear Pony Pals

Club Pony Pals' next virtual barn sleepover is this Friday, February 26th from 6 pm to 10 pm Eastern Standard Time, USA. Pam, Anna, Lulu and I will all be online to chat and tell stories. In one chat area we will offer 20 minute virtual riding lessons every hour. Pam promises games of 20 questions and if enough members make it, a third room to just chat with Anna and Lulu. Don't forget to stop by and visit. Just go to your personal page, look for the green link "Live Moderated Chat," click on it and that will take you to the virtual party!

There is only one more week to enter your comment on Club Pony Pals a petition to save wild horses. You can read more about it here.

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.

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

Member Photo Gallery

Dear Webmaster, Here are some pictures of my dog Daisy.  She is very smart and knows lots of tricks.  The picture of her in the leaves was taken in the fall when me and Sir Lunchalot decided to rake leaves and put her in them.  The picture of her with the ribbon around her neck was taken on Thanksgiving Day.  I hope you like them! :D Skipper234 & Acorn

American Presidents Pony Pal Thoughts for the Day

Here lies the body of my good horse, 'The General.' For twenty years he bore me around the circuit of my practice, and in all that time he never made a blunder. Would that his master could say the same! John Tyler

_____________

I can make a General in five minutes but a good horse is hard to replace.
Abraham Lincoln

_____________

If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month.
Theodore Roosevelt

_______________

I've often said there's nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse.
Ronald Reagan
