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

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!

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 ROCKY 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!!

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.

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.

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

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!

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!
