I'm so happy and proud to announce that FR has officially turned three! Three whole years of this crazy family hanging around together. Three years of memories, fun and laughs. As I have been in FR since day one, it is such a large part of my life and I am so proud to be the owner as it starts working towards year number 4. Today's event was all about honoring the past, so we met at SF in our beautiful purple uniform: Then, a short hack to where we celebrated our birthday last year and we recreated the circle that we made then. It was a bit bigger this time though! Finally, we hacked to the cafe at Jarlaheim which was where one of the first events ever happen. It was a tea party so we all brought some tea clothes along to celebrate. Consider back in March 2015 there were only 4 people, you can see how the club has got a big bigger... After the main event was over, some Frosties came to do a little exploring on and island while others Skyped - just a bit of chilling out together to end the day. Hugs

There was much anticipation for tonight's meeting because everyone wanted to know what it was about. So, they all gathered at the Club Hall ready to listen to the what I had to say. If you're not in FR, I'd say that you don't need to read the next part! Being quiet in photos - being quiet means being quiet. No emotes, talking on say. Spamming people that come online, saying weba, brb or back all count as talking!
Turning up on time and organized for events - read the calendar and plan ahead. If it says a certain horse and you own one - ride it! I don't care if it's red face and only level 2. No masks - this includes anything that you put on your face (small glasses are allowed) because it's become a bit of a thing to wear big masks to events and it's making everything look messy. Listening to the event host - quiet means quiet! It's more fun for everyone if you're quiet. After the seriousness, we went on a little hack and everyone was given a NPC. They then had to roast each other's NPC. If someone roasted them, they had to roast them back - but everyone just wanted to insult Mr Kembell! Indeed, the time had come to get two new leaders. In the past, we always had 4 leaders in FR and six riding instructors but, recently, we've had two leaders (well, they're actually the co owners of FR) and eight riding instructors. But, it felt that the time was right to promote two more people to riding instructor. There were 50 votes, it was indeed close. Every riding instructor got at least two votes but most people got around 5. All of the riding instructors are amazing, else they wouldn't be riding instructors, but on Sunday the club gathered to see who would get the two places as leader. So, firstly, congratulations to: Caitlin Lightlake - she have been a leader in the past but you came back to FR, after leading, and completely re-earned that rank. You're active over all social media and she cares about the club so much. She's just the perfect leader - which the club agreed with me on. So well done! Paige Waterfall - very similar reasons to Cait. Pai is active on all social media and is always there for FR. She also cares about the club and, most of the time, is very mature. She isn't in drama and is just the kind of person you want to hang around with. Again the club agreed with me that you're perfect for the role! Well done everyone and thank you for voting but a particularly big well done to Cait and Pai. Hugs
Li xx It's been an awesome week. Thank you so much to everyone for taking part and thank you very much to our Agents for running events. Throughout the week you have been collecting points. 1 point for coming to an event, 2 points for coming second and 3 points for winning. The highest points was 14 and the lowest was 0 so quite a mix. The average points was just under 5 so anyone who got 6 (way above average) as been welcomed into JI8 as an agent. 1st Trainee Lightningbrooke 14 1st Trainee Cloudmore 14 3rd Trainee Sharkhaven 11 4th Trainee Nightknight 9 4th Trainee Autumnleaf 9 6th Trainee Sparrowluck 8 7th Trainee Ponyluck 7 8th Trainee Bunnlake 6 8th Trainee Ponygirl 6 8th Trainee Flowergarden 6 ————————————— (Above this line made it as agents) 11th Trainee Dolphinpie 5 11th Trainee Kingfield 5 11th Trainee Mistgirl 5 14th Trainee Kittensmith 4 14th Trainee Dawnmountain 4 16th Trainee Queenpaw 3 17th Trainee Fogmountain 1 17th Trainee Steelstar 1 17th Trainee Northbridge 1 17th Trainee Opalknight 1 17th Trainee Monsterstar 1 17th Trainee Proudpaw 1 17th Trainee Deerdawn 1 17th Trainee Lionhaven 1 Well done everyone!

Hugs Li xx Hello, so I'm heading off to visit family meaning I'll have no internet. Therefore, I can be reached over my Whatsapp (friends know it), my Instagram (@lisilentland) or being mailed in game (mail to be sent to Lisa Silentland). And that is it so I'll see you all on Sunday evening. I wish you all a Happy Easter and I hope that you enjoy the Western Event on Friday and the Easter event on Sunday. Also, I hope that everyone liked Lili's Dressage on Monday - no photos of it I'm afraid. Well done everyone who took part in that. Another well done to Dalma Diamondgirl for this beautifully edited video - so give it some love. Bye lovelies! Hello! Happy Wednesday, I hope that you all enjoyed the update today. We, in FR, had some very mixed reactions. But anyway, it’s time to talk about the open event. As normal, we stood in the traditional two lines before we hacked to Paddock Island. There, I split everyone up into groups ready for a race. First they did Lisa’s jumping track. Then the winners (Emily Mistwood, Lilian Flowergarden, Savannah Opalstreet and Emily Mistwood) all raced again. Lilian won’t this race. People then were put into different groups where they competed in the Paddock Island race. The winners this time were Emily Mistwood, Courtney Firelake, Lilian Flowergarden and Natalie Opalwood. Who, logically, then raced again. This was again won by Lilian who I think we can now call FR’s racing champion! After the races, we hacked to a picnic where as normal we counted up the votes for who to join. If you’re wondering how this works here it is. 1. Everyone on at the event in FR can vote an unlimited number of times for who they want in the club. 2. The votes are counted up and the winners from the shortlist are added. 3. If there is more spaces than people from the shortlist at the event then winners from the interest list may also be added. 4. Everyone who got a vote is added to the shortlist. The winners of the spaces were three people off the shortlist so well done and welcome to Kate Haysister, Azzurra Sharkpie and a to be confirmed place has been offered to Arisha Seawood. If you want to watch a video of the event our amazing camera girl Dalma Diamondgirl has recorded the event and uploaded it, so go give the video and the channel some love (shameless self promo). Although last night was a night filled with joy, something sad happened. Three members left FR (they are friends and left together). It is sad when someone leaves any club but it is felt particularly hard in FR as people don’t leave very often and we are a closely knit family. In addition, these three members were two leaders and one riding instructor. Therefore, FR for a while now will only have 2 leaders which will probably stay the same unless we feel that we need more. We will promote a new RI at the end of this week. Stay strong fam.
Lots of love and hugs Li xx It was time for a meeting where we promoted one new RI and two new leaders. It all started with everyone settling and sitting down. So then it was time to announce - RI first. Almost every champion got a vote and there were so many people that would make amazing riding instructors. But we only had one space and one person clearly took the lead. Quotes include: I’m voting for Rosemary Kindfield because she’s been so kind to me and helped me Rose is really funny and active For RI, I am voting for Rosemary Kindfield because she is a kind person all round. She is active and talks a lot on chat, she comes to a lot of events and helps out with them. So well done Rosemary Kingfield! You’ve been promoted to the sports saddle squad and we hope you enjoy it. You deserve the rank! Next it was time for leaders. This was so hard as I’d happily promote each and every RI to a leader and the votes weren’t a big help either because it was close. So in the end we went with our oldest two RIs and members. The first was Louisa Bluepie and quotes for her include: She is super friendly and a great laugh. Pou is a wonderful caring FR member. She is loved by many and welcomes many into the club. Pou is a very active Frostie and can handle drama well. Lou has been very nice to me since I joined so I think she’d fit the role as leader! And the final promotion was to Lauren Lightningvalley and here is what convinced me to promote her: She makes me laugh and face palm all of the time. She just brings a smile to your face and is a enjoy to be around. She is a very active member of FR. She has been in the club for all the time I’ve been in FR so she deserves it! I think Loz for Leader because she talks a lot, is friendly & she makes me laugh A bit more on the leaders. We have updated it so each leader has a certain role within the club. Here is a bit more about the roles.
Dalma Diamondgirl - She is YouTube leader and is in charge of uploading onto our fabulous club YouTube and also will be helping me with the website. Bethany Puppypaw - Taco is going to be in charge of a new Facebook page for the club so keep your eyes out! Lauren Lightningvalley - Los will help organise Skype calls and also help people plan events so before you run an events, I will send you to Los so she can make sure that your idea will run smoothly. Louisa Bluepie - Pou will continue to be a buddy to possible new members. If you are looking at joining mail Lou explaining who you are and that you want to be friends are you want to join FR. Lou also is an admin of the FR WhatsApp. Thank you for reading Hugs Li xx Tonight was finally the time to announce the brand new leaders and riding instructors. There are so many amazing people in the club who deserve these ranks but in the end I chose to promote 4 new RIs and 3 new leaders. In about a month we will choose one of these RIs to become the final leader and we'll promote three more RIs! First it's time for the RIs. A RI needs to be loyal, mature and an active member of the club. There are many people that are mature, active and loyal and many members got recognized in the votes for this. So many that it would not be possible to promote them all so I looked at those who had been in the club for the longest. After much thought as reading through the votes it became clear that it had to be the following five people so well done to: Lauren Lightningvalley Sophia Puppyvalley Ellie Applegrove Louisa Bluepie Moving onto leader. A leader needs to be the above plus helpful towards the club. There were three names that kept coming up and it was natural to promote them as they were all RI previously so a giant well done to: Dalma Diamondgirl Bethany Puppypaw Bella Longsmith You have all been a massive help in the last fortnight so welcome to the leader team! Well done everyone who was a part of this election, you all were amazing.
Hugs Li !IMPORTANT! News time. Okay so as most of you will be aware, some members of FR have together formed a new club. This is a choice that they’ve made to leave and I ask everyone to respect it as they have respected peoples’ to stay. I would also like to address these rumors about “everyone” leaving. It’s less than half the club, yes it’s quite a few but not everyone.
Now onto the spaces. Today we have started to slowly (or not) fill spaces again. These are mostly returning members or people from the shortlist to the club. We will continue to only add people that we feel are close as we are in no rush to be full. And finally it’s time to talk about ranks. We aren’t going to start replacing leaders or riding instructors yet. It will happen in due course when people are ready. Thank you all for staying strong, I love you all so much and welcome to the new members! Li It's almost the end of 2016 and it's time for awards! Everyone in FR could win the award for being kind, amazing and more so I turned to jokey awards. Obviously you shouldn't set too much store by this just because someone has one award doesn't mean that you aren't amazing at that thing as well! Click on a certificate to see what you got them for with a short explaination. Well done everyone! Happy 2017. I hope that you are all behaving with the leaders in charger. I'll be back on Monday..
Hugs Li xx |
