"The Christmas Party starts Friday but tons of you are already ahead of the game and you've started your own celebrations! All over the island there are lots of holiday themed igloos - and a bunch of reindeer, trees, and elves have been spotted helping with the construction in the Town and upstairs in the Night Club!!Keep up with all the cool stuff you're doing to celebrate - and get ready for even more. I don't want to tell you everything, but you might want to make plans with some buddies to cheer up a tree at the Iceberg and check out a Christmas feast at the Pizza Parlor. The Lighthouse'll be rocking with performances for Coins For Change, and members will get to help deliver presents."
