Message from Billybob:

Hello Penguins,

The mural in Haiti is complete!

Thanks to your support, and the help of many kids in Haiti, the project is a big success. Check out these pictures:

Check out Mickey1216's picture on the wall! The kids in Haiti were also a huge help in designing and painting the mural. The final picture has definitely been a world-wide effort!

Thanks again to everyone who took part. Make sure to let us know what you think of the finished mural in the comments!

Art for Haiti Announcement :)

Message from Billybob:

Hello Penguins!

As many of you know, we're always trying to help kids and families all over the world. And thanks to your support and generosity, a new school has been built in Haiti.

It just needs one more thing - a painted mural for the playground... And we want YOU to design it!

Show us what having fun means to you by drawing and sending us a picture of your penguin playing with your buddies! We'll then select the Top 4 pictures, and everyone will vote for their favorite here on the What's New Blog!

If your artwork is chosen, it will be painted by one of our artists as a large wall mural. We hope this mural will help share the gift of fun with all the kids who play there.

We'll be putting up a submission page next week. Here's the Dos and Don'ts list for your picture, so you can get started:

Do:

1. Draw between two and four penguins playing together.
2. Draw the picture taking place outdoors.
3. Draw penguins with only one or two simple items. Like hats and scarves!
4. Try to use five colors or less.
5. Use any art style you like! Pencils, pens and paints are great!

Don't:

1. Include any personal information (like an address).
2. Use any words.
3. Use anyone else's pictures.
4. Draw large or complicated items. (No Squidzoids!)

So what do you think? Let us know, and make sure to check back next week for more info.

Until then... Waddle on!

Hello Penguins!

Lots of you are getting excited for the Mountain Expedition which starts on Friday! Last week, we asked you what challenges you thought you'd face on your way to the top, and Dry Ice124 said:

I always love new things on Club Penguin. I also love exploring new things. I'm going to love the mountain exploration. I wish there would be challenges to face and solve for the event. Maybe like saving or helping other penguins on the mountain or exploring new parts and places of the mountain like a cave or a tunnel! There's going to be a lot of exploration and adventure! I'm so excited!!

Thanks Dry Ice124, that's awesome!

Last week, we asked you what new Stamps you would like to see added to Club Penguin. Chillycat12 said:

I think there should be a make a difference stamp! For this stamp you can either donate to the coins for change when it comes around or help work at the recycling center! I think this will help people notice how they can make such a difference just by working together! You can even make friends while your working together. But every times someone helps, it makes a difference!

Hello Penguins!

Last week, we asked you what your favorite pin of all time was. Friitzee08 said:

I've collected a lot of pins over the year. And they're all so great. But, I prefer a special one. Like the recycle pin! It's a small symbol, but it changes the world by a %100. I'm pretty sure it's made out of recycled stuff from the recycle center near the mine (; Each pin, I have stands for something. So, I try to wear a new one everyday to show my 'pin-spirit'!

That's great! Thanks for your review!

As everyone earns more and more Stamps, we're starting to hear suggestions on what kinds we should add next. So this week, tell us - What new Stamps would YOU like to see added to Club Penguin?

Hello Penguins!

It's that time of week where we post your reviews! Last week we asked you what your favorite role to play in a band was, and 472yellow said:

I personally like all of the positions, but i like playing the tuba. The tuba is so unique because it's THE BIGGEST INSTRUMENT EVER! I also like rocking out with the tuba because all my friends laugh and pretend to throw tomatoes at me. Then, i have to run backstage with my big tuba. Then we take our instruments and go to the pizza parlor for candy pizza!

Sweet! Thanks for your review. Many of you told us how are excited you are to show everybody your pin collection with your new Stamp Book. So this week we'd like to know - out of all the pins you've collected - which one is your favorite?

Lots Coming for Members! :)

Message from Billybob:

Hello Penguins!

We saw how much you loved to dance and make music at Music Jam and we heard you loved the new member rooms - thanks for the great feedback!

We thought we'd let you know about some new things that are coming up just for members.


Make music at the Lighthouse: Starting today musical instruments will be available in the Lighthouse all the time, because we love to see you guys jam!

Design your igloo: We know how creative you are with your igloos and we wanted to give you more. If you liked the T-shirt builder in Penguin Style, you're going to love the new Better Igloos catalog.

Spy Phone Updates: EPF Agents will face greater challenges to keep the island safe in August. You'll receive new Field-Op orders with more Spy Phone games to test your skills. Plus you'll be able to obtain brand new elite gear with your medals!

Earn Stamps: Stamps will be available for everyone, and we wanted to give members access to exclusive stamps and features. As a result, some of the harder levels in games will be made member only. The games that will be changing are Jet Pack Adventure, Catchin' Waves, Thin Ice, Astro Barrier and Aqua Grabber. Don't worry, everyone will still be able to play the first few levels.

Members play a big role in making Club Penguin better all the time and we wanted a way to say thanks. We're excited to hear what you think!

Until then... waddle on!

Stamps! Coming Soon. :)

Message from Billybob:

Hello Penguins!

Some of you have noticed that we've updated last Saturday's Sneak Peek over the week. Here's the last of those mystery images...
Lots of you sent in some great guesses about what you thought they might be. Corncand said:

These look like stamps or stickers! My guess is we will have an album to put them im every time we earn them and maybe we will have to do tasks to earn them anyway im excited!

Thanks Corncand! I couldn't have said it better myself. Starting July 26, you'll be able to earn and collect stamps!

Some of you commented that you think stamps are in games like Aqua Grabber. There's a lot more to stamps than just playing games... You'll have to work together to earn many of them!!

You'll get your own Stamp Book to put them in, and you can show off your collection to everyone.

We hope you're excited - can't wait to hear what you think.

Until then... Waddle on!

Well, i like to make my own dance style, and i cant do this without my friends, cuz they love to dance! We love to swing our hands in the air and sing along to our favorite songs! We also love to breakdance so that the crowd will be amazed! We also love to combine dances to see how many possibilities there are to dance! We love to boogie to the beat, stomp our feet, and have a little treat afterwards!
Awesome - thanks Lawain!

Field-Ops is Here! :)

Message from Billybob. :) :

Hello Penguins!

We asked Elite Agents to report for duty on June 15, and that time has come. Today we launch a new feature called "Field-Ops", which will give agents weekly orders to keep the island safe. After what happened to the PSA, these orders will be more important than ever!

Field-Ops will put all of an agent's skills to the test - their ability to search for clues, solve problems, and work under pressure. To start, there will be a number of tasks that agents will need to learn...

... and new ones will be added over time.

All Elite Agents will have access to Field-Ops, so you can work together with your buddies and fellow agents to solve them. But we've also planned some special rewards for members, including some all-new EPF gear.

Begin your first Field-Ops at the Command Room, and let us know what you think. Just don't give away any surprises!

In other news - the Island Adventure Party starts this week. I'm keeping it a surprise, to let everyone explore it for themselves, so let us know what you think when it launches.

Until then... Waddle on!

Adventure is in the air, as we prepare for the first ever "Island Adventure Party" on Thursday!

So the whole island is being transformed for this party. There will be adventures everywhere, with lots of rooms for pirates, castaways, mermaids, commanders and TONS more. And for members we have a special surprise...

So what kind of adventures are you looking forward to the most? Let us know in the comments!
