Club Pony Pals News
Crandals Barn Sleepover Celebrates Spring

Dear Pony Pals  

This Friday night March 26, Mrs. Crandal, Pam, Anna and Lulu will all gather at Crandal's barn to host a virtual sleepover from 6 pm to 10 pm, eastern daylight savings time, USA.  For our members who are outside the USA, look at a world time chart to see when that will be in your local time. 

 

Pam will be in one room holding her famous "20 Questions" game.  JC will hold virtual riding lessons every hour in another room.

 

Anna and Lulu will be in a third room to chat with members and answer questions and chat about whatever topic anyone chooses.

 

Just go to your home page or our Forum main page and find our green link "live moderated chat." Click on it and you'll be at our sleepover.

 

In other news, our CPP horse and pony alphabet coloring book is almost done, but it still needs some entries. We are missing drawings for these breeds

  • Belgian
  • Choctaw
  • Gideon Arabian
  • Hanoverian
  • Halflinger
  • Keiger Mustang
  • Missouri Fox Trotter
  • Xilingol

For these breeds only the deadline is extended until April 3rd.

When it is ready as CPP's first e-book, our "Pony Pals ABC's of Horses" will be a great way to help kids worldwide learn their English ABC's while they find out about horse and pony breeds.

 

You can still vote for entries inColoring Contest # 11, download blank art for Coloring Contest 12 color it and send it in -- email attachments are fastest.

Our February Story Contest is still open for voting until the 27th, we have some great stories for your reading enjoyment. Choose your favorite and encourage a young author at the same time.

 

Feeling lost? Look at a map of Wiggins here.

While we had hoped that our programmers would have Olson's Pony Farm ready, it still is not. As soon as we know it is finished enough, our testers will hear from us first to try out all its new features.

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.

And if a member creates a Youtube video about our site, let us know! We will award a thousand Wiggins Bucks for a good video about us.

Pals,

Jane Crandal

This is my one eyed horse :) Star is 19 and is a Bay. She had a sensitivity to gnats and she kept itching it and we had to take it out. But she is the best horse and the gentlest horse you'll ever meet. I love her. I try to ride her every other day but sometimes school gets in the way. Cate11 & Towaco

Pony Pal Thoughts for the Day

Riding a horse is not a gentle hobby, to be picked up and laid down like a game of Solitaire. It is a grand passion. ~ RalphWaldo Emerson, 1803-82

Gypsy gold does not clink and glitter. It gleams in the sun and neighs in the dark. ~ Saying of the Gladdagh Gypsies of Galway

________________________

We have almost forgotten how strange a thing it is that so huge and powerful and intelligent an animal as a horse should allow another, and far more feeble, animal to ride upon its back. ~ Peter Gray
