Announcements

Pixie Hollow announced the 2010 Winter Wonderland Party under the "Events" section on the Pixie Hollow site.

2010 Winter Wonderland Party (12/21 - 01/05)

Posted by: Sweet Pea

Things are starting to cool down around the Hollow, which can only mean one thing ... the Winter Wonderland Party must be near! Starting December 21, Members can fly over to the Ballroom to have a snowball fight and earn a special winter badge. To make sure the season starts on time, be sure to help Silvermist with her splashtacular quest. The reward for completing this quest will be very useful for Member pixies once the Winter Wonderland Party starts.
This year the Minister of Winter also has a flitterific surprise to celebrate the start of winter! She'll be opening a frosty new location just for the event on December 21, where she will make special appearances. Fly over to Chilly Falls and see if you can get a sneak-peek at the wintry surprise!
