Snow Cannons!! (And Other Cool Stuff!)
Ahoy Penguins!
I hope you're all having a lot of fun at the party! There are hundreds of cool ways to play with all the new decorations. I've even seen a few bands using the Migrator as a stage! The snow forts area is my favorite part of the party, but we would love to hear yours!
I've heard that Rockhopper is having a great time meeting lots of new penguins and is hoping to meet everyone. He will be hanging out at the Migrator, the Snow Forts, in the Night Club, and at the Dock so if you want to meet him, try looking in one of those places.
In other news, there are some big events coming up next month! I can’t give away any details right now, but its going to be very big and very fun! You won’t want to miss it!
Until then... Waddle On!

Pirate Party!!!
Ahoy Penguins!
This weekend starts one of our most unique parties ever! Captain Rockhopper is returning to the island and we’re celebrating by redecorating all of Club Penguin into a pirate theme. Rockhopper will be waddling around and if he is on the server you are on, you should be able to find him on the Migrator, at the Snow Forts, in the Night Club, at the Dock, or perhaps searching for treasure!
I was able to sneak another picture of some of the decorations and I must say they look really cool and very different. The party starts this Friday and it's going to be a lot of fun so make sure you don't miss it! As always, there will be a free item for everyone!
Until then... Waddle On!

New Igloo Catalog!
Hello Penguins!
With all the excitement about Captain Rockhopper’s return, I almost forgot to mention that the new igloo catalog was launched! It includes some pretty cool items. My favorite is the drum set. There is also a new split level igloo upgrade so you can make one level the stage and the other the audience. This makes it even easier for your band to practice in your igloo, or even better, have a private concert just for you and your friends! Let me know what you think!
Until then... Waddle On!

Sneak Peek!
Hello Penguins!
Many of you read in the paper today that a Pirate party has been set for the end of the month! I am very excited about it not only because will it include some new items, but most importantly, it will include a new area to explore on Rockhopper's ship! I was able to sneak a small picture of what the new area might look like to share with you. Let me know what you think! I’ll try to get more pictures soon.
Until then... Waddle On!

Music Mania!
Hello Penguins!
I hope you’re all having a lot of fun with the new instruments and stage. Its been cool to see all the creativity from everyone. For the next few days the stage will be very busy, but don’t worry, after a little while it will return to normal and everyone will be able to participate. We had some issues with the music this morning, but it should be working now. We’ll try to change it from time to time and even add some brand new tunes!
Until then... Waddle On!

Load Times
Hello Penguins!
I wanted to apologize for the slow loading times last Friday. It turns out the Easter egg hunt was very popular and our servers had some trouble keeping up. We are going to be upgrading the servers again so hopefully that won't happen in the future. Thank you all for your patience and hopefully you all were able to enjoy the Easter egg hunt on Saturday or Sunday when the servers were working better.
In other news: The stage construction is going well and many of you with hard hats are helping out! If all goes well, it should be ready by this Friday so make sure you practice those instruments and get ready to perform!
Until then... Waddle On!

New Catalog! (and Easter Eggs!)
Hello Penguins!
I hope you’re all enjoying the Easter egg hunt! If you’re having trouble finding some eggs, don’t be afraid to ask someone for help and keep trying, you’ll get it!
Today the new catalog is launched and this time it is more about instruments than clothes! We’ll be able to form bands, practice in our igloos, and eventually perform on the new stage being built! So warm up those skills because it should be a blast!
Until then... Waddle On!
