Wouldn't miss it!!!!!!! :a040:

KathieI 02-12-2009 11:43 AM

I'll be there with bells on my dancing shoes. I'll dance with someone who will be alone also. :a040:
Donna and F16 aren't in town right now and I'll ask Sailor if he wants to go, I think Shirlee is currently out of town but may be back by then.

I can't promise that I won't LMAO... and blow the whole thing, but for sure it will be fun.

I'm gonna be watching this on the web cam. I'll join the freeze "in spirit."

ouma1938 02-12-2009 02:08 PM

I am also going to watch it on the webcam. I wish I could be there. Maybe next year..........but I'll be with you in spirit also, and may even freeze in the living room. I can just imagine Mr. Ouma trying to figure out what I'm doing.:pepper2::2excited::2excited:

Ouma! That's so funny! You're going to freeze in your living room! :laugh:
That's a great idea you nut! :wave:

Calling all Singles!
 
I know there's a big singles group, so I'm giving a shout out to them to come and join The Freeze!

We were in it last year and it was really, really fun! Met lots of people we've become very good friends with and a good time was had by all.

Come one, come all. We need lots of people because Rocky and the Rollers will be playing, so it will be crowed and we need to cluster and Freeze near each other to make a big impact.

All are welcome. :welcome:

Unfortunately, there WAS a big singles group, which has been diminished somewhat but there are still a few of us around that will try to come to the freeze.

Let's keep bumping this post to keep it active.

renielarson 02-12-2009 10:26 PM

Kathie...what do you mean there WAS a singles group? Aren't the singles still in TV? They didn't all leave, did they?

Singles...are you still here?

Meeting at 5:15 allows us to walk onto the Square together... the actual Freeze will begin at 5:30pm sharp. We will be "freezing" to ROCK AND THE ROLLERS!!

All participants will freeze in one position when they hear the horn/whistle that I will blow at 5:30pm. Freeze will last for 4 minutes. Creative poses welcome...just make sure you can hold the pose for 4 minutes. Horn/whistle will blow at the end of time and you will be free to move at that time.

Come join us, bring a friend. It really is fun!!

Don't forget to add this to your calendar for February 17. Just meet us at the clock at LSL at 5:15 PM. Everyone is welcome!

islandgal 02-13-2009 06:09 AM

It might be nice, if we have a name tag handy, to wear it

Blondie 02-13-2009 08:41 AM

Singles
 
We will put this out to the Singles group...I'm sure they will be happy to participate in the 2nd Annual Freeze. I loved watching the video of last year's Freeze and hoped there would be another one this year....so thanks, Susan, for keeping it going.
Come on Singles LSL February 17th gather about 5:00ish

Sam, I know if you look at me, I'm gonna totally lose it. I can't keep a straight face for a minute. Nor can I keep my mouth closed that long so I'll have to be in the middle of chatting as usual!!!

nONIE 02-13-2009 11:38 AM

Kathie,

I will have to remember to bring the duck tape! LOL:ohdear:

How to give Just Susan her JUST REWARDS!!
 
I remember looking at the tape of the Freeze last year and seeing the organization of it wherein I saw Just Susan for the first time and wondered if she was a CEO of something. Well she was/is I have since found out, and although she doesn't live here YET, she is returning to once again organize, direct and giggle us through the FREEZE once again. I have thought and thought of something to properly thank her for directing us through all this silliness and I can't come up with anything.

Does anyone think that whip cream might be a good idea? If so bring some!:evil6:

samhass 02-13-2009 12:13 PM

Kathie, Do not, I repeat, do not, freeze with your mouth open due to chatting.
Refer to the bug post.

sschuler1 02-13-2009 12:23 PM

Wish I could be there to participate in the "Freeze" with you. I'll be watching on the webcam. :coolsmiley:

redwitch 02-13-2009 12:56 PM

Count me in. It was hysterical last year.

KathieI 02-13-2009 05:02 PM

TO REPEAT MYSELF LIKE A BAD BOWL OF CHILI!!!!!


graciegirl 02-14-2009 03:06 AM

Just Susan is in the building...or at least in TV

UPDATE!!!!2nd Annual Freeze UPDATE!!!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Announcing the 2nd Annual Freeze in The Villages!


Date: Feb. 17th, 2009
Time: 5:15pm
Where: The clock at Lake Sumter Landing

Meeting at 5:15 allows us to walk onto the Square together... the actual Freeze will begin at 5:30pm sharp.

All participants will freeze when they hear the horn/whistle that I will blow at 5:30pm.

Participants will hold their chosen position for 4 minutes (we went for 3 minutes last year, so we will up it by 1 minute this year....because we can!)

At the end of the 4 minutes, I will blow the horn/whistle again and we will all dance to the music, walk, talk, move, whatever.

It's simple, it's fun. The hardest thing is not laughing during the actual Freeze part!

Now here is the twist. Creative poses would be fun. Perhaps you will freeze in a kissing pose, like our famed couple from last year, Shirleevee and her Hubby. Maybe you will hold a big heart. Maybe you will come in costume, whatever clever idea you can come up with is great. Simply holding still is enough.

Hope you will join in the fun.
See you there!

Susan, who is "hosting" the Freeze, has asked a few of us to remind people daily of the event. Susan was the mastermind behind last year's event. :bowdown::bowdown:

Of course the Singles Group is most welcome, along with newbies, oldies, and anyone else who cares to join in. :MOJE_whot::thumbup:

I'm trying Bare, I keep "bumping" that I'm making myself dizzy (dizzier), LOL. Yes all are invited I hope we get a huge turnout. I hope I can keep a straight face (no comments Nonie, ya hear?) OK, see ya all on Tuesday.

bobfl 02-14-2009 05:43 PM

My Grandaughters are here visiting and are all exicited about the freeze. They are 15, 14, and 11. Will it be ok for them to participate?

Bob

renielarson 02-14-2009 05:48 PM

Of course, Bob, your granddaughters are welcome to join in! Everyone is welcome and the more the merrier. Your girls will go home with something to talk about because this is an event to remember! You need to join in, too. Your granddaughters would be so excited to have grandpa involved.

I was there for the first Freeze and am so sad I won't be able to make it to this one. At least my hubby will be there so I will live vicariously through the webcam and through his details after the event.

JUST SUSAN...I am so happy you are back in The Villages and are able to be hostess to the 2nd Annual Freeze event! I miss you and am looking forward to the time we can get together again.

samhass 02-14-2009 09:40 PM

I am bringing a few neighbors to participate. It is really fun and we hope to see many of you there. :a040::a040:

KathieI 02-14-2009 09:54 PM

We had a block party today on my street and I invited almost all the peeps to come too. Not sure how many will actually show up, but I'll keep pressuring them. We'll have fun. Does anyone know if anyone is gonna take a video again?

graciegirl 02-15-2009 09:54 AM

Make a BIG enough to read sign with your name on it.
 
Here's a fun idea. Everyone knows each other here by our TOTV names so why don't we all take a a"big enough" piece of folded plain paper and put our TOTV name on it, large enough so people can read it from a distance and pin it to our back with four safety pins. Then we know who to holler at and to hug?? I am so looking forward to this.

There are people I KNOW that are in town and many of us haven't met them. I know Coconuts and hubs are here, and Barb, and Fumar, and rshoffer, and ......just bunches. Please come and put a sign on yourself.

Remember to hug Just Susan really hard for her original idea and continued direction.

Oh what a great idea! A block party! The "Almost All The Peeps" whether invited or not will be there. Do we need special Tshirts and wristbands to get in? Is The Villages not a great place to live! Thanks TOTV for making this all possible!

Peazoup 02-15-2009 02:11 PM

FABULOUS!!!!!! I'm so glad the date has changed, 'cause I'm returning to The Villages from New Hampshire on the 17th. I'LL BE THERE!!!!!!! Can't wait to see all my buds again. Missed you all so much. Let the party begin.

Pookirgirl 02-16-2009 05:46 PM

We will be here in Jersey watching The Freeze tomorrow night! My husband is excited to just watch it here on TOTV! Can't wait to get there...someday... when we can join all of you in that crazy fun stuff!! Have fun!

I love seeing that video over and over. Love seeing Sailor and Shirl kissing, how cute. I know I'm gonna crack up laughing. I'll try real hard to be good, yeah sure! Me too UU, so excited :a040:

In awe of TV 02-17-2009 01:19 PM

I sincerely hope someone will be videoing this event and posting asap!

I wish I was there to participate, but seeing the video is my next best option.

Have fun everyone! :pepper2:

Freeda 02-17-2009 02:26 PM

Sorry to have to be the one to ask .... but WHERE is the clock in LSL? I have never noticed it. I guess one just loses track of worrying about what time it is here!
