Winter Wonderland

3rd Rock Grid has recently gone through a major software upgrade and we moved our grid to Europe and purchased brand new, faster servers ! To celebrate our metamorphosis to a much better and updated grid we're having a Welcome Back to the Grid Party ! This event will feature the singing talents of Russell Eponym, Kitzie Lane, and Rhia Morgan plus our Fabulous Wailers Tribute Band and DJ Tek Bachman. Because of the upgrade we couldn't have our annual Christmas Party so we're hosting this event on our Winter Wonderland Region. Come and enjoy all the winter sports, sights and sounds as we celebrate our spectacular new upgrade! We are also taking this opportunity to honor the life and work of our dear friend Zinnia Frenzy who was a friend to all in virtual worlds.

We've planned 8 hours of great entertainment, plus lots of winter activities to make sure everyone has a fun filled day. There is a huge pond to ice skate on , a snowy trail that goes around the parameter of the region where you can take a sleigh ride that gives you some beautiful, scenic views . Also you can rez a horse for a wonderful ride throughout the region. Take a ride with Santa and his reindeer up high in the air, go skiing, sledding, snowboarding down our ski slope and relax with friends in the ski lodge around a roaring fire. Plus there are lots of freebies and some gifts under the tree that are free to copy.
