Wiggins Weekly 3-50


	Volume 3 Number 50 June 18 - June 25, 2010

With Fathers day and the summer solstice both falling on this weekend, the Crandal's barn is abuzz with activity like a busy June beehive.

Programmers are working hard to add new quests that will go live next week.

Kline's has just gotten in two new colors of tall English brown field riding boots. While you're in downtown Wiggins, be sure to take advantage of Kline's sale on riding helmets that's extended for another week. And Kline's now sells purple and red couches and chairs. Just for summer fun, Kline's is featuring inflatable chairs in both red and purple, both at prices that are easy on members' budgets.

New Cabin 500 miles ridden award
For dedicated trail riders, we now award a "500 Miles Ridden" trophy to display on the mantel of personal cabins. Our first winners include Britnie, Nat2 and Chelsea2. Congratulations to our trio of intrepid trail riders! May you and your ponies only get more fit and happy! If you hit 500 trail miles ridden on our site, drop us a w mail to get your trophy!

At last, our entire library of Wiggins Weekly's is now online. Any time anyone wants to see just how many amazingly talented artists and writers belong to our club, start clicking and reading. We are deeply honored by all the creative efforts our members keep adding to our community.

A big Pony Pals shout out to the winners of our Coloring Contest #13:

Hand Colored category Winner: Alyssa Runner up: Nat2

Computer Colored category Winner: Leopard54321 Runner Up: microphone

Pony Pal Thoughts for the Day

A horse is the projection of peoples' dreams about themselves - strong, powerful, beautiful - and it has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence. ~Pam Brown

A good horse should be seldom spurred. ~Thomas Fuller

I sit astride life like a bad rider on a horse. I only owe it to the horse's good nature that I am not thrown off at this very moment.
~Ludwig Wittgenstein
