Aunt Arctic's Article #37
Hello, penguins!
Welcome to another edition of Aunt Arctic’s Article. Last time, we received both an interesting message and word about two upcoming parties! This week, we’ll be reflecting on this past year on our snowy island, hearing more about May’s party, and getting an inside scoop on some new catalogs!

Cheers to Three Years!
On May 6, yet another year will have passed on our snowy island. Although the official date is tomorrow, the 3rd Anniversary Party is out now in the Town Center! The anniversary parties are one of my favorite parties on the island because we get to reflect on so many great memories! I asked several penguins what their favorite memories of the past year were:
“The Fashion Festival was incredible, I had never seen anything like it! It was so cool participating in all seven of the themes, seeing the sunset sky, and even meeting Dot the Disguise Gal for the first time. I’ll never forget it!”
“PUFFLES! Without a doubt, finally being able to adopt our favorite companions was the best part of the third year. The new Pet Shop, the Puffle Party, Puffle Handler, everything! It was such a wonderful time. The addition of several special puffles, such as the Ice Skater Puffle, was awesome too!”
“Change for Coins and the Holiday Party were both phenomenal this year. The fact that we were able to create such positive change for such a noble cause, all while celebrating the greatest time of year with Captain Rockhopper was spectacular. It always feels good to make a difference.”
“The Medieval Party returning was EPIC! Being able to conquer all three Ye Knight’s Quests combined with meeting Gary the Gadget Guy was awesome! I also just loved taking on the role of so many medieval figures: knights, dragons, wizards, and more! The fun never ended during that party!”
“Seeing the return of some long-awaited faces was so cool! Helping Waitaha and Tuhirangi during The Great Storm and seeing Jet Pack Guy alongside Rookie during April Fools’ back-to-back was spectacular! The party-planning committee really went all out!”
As you can see, there were quite a bit of memories made this past year! What lies ahead for our fourth year? You’ll just have to wait and see! It’s been incredible seeing this community grow everyday, and I can’t wait to see you all over these next few days! Be sure to have your favorite memories ready to be told!
May Means Music!
In addition to the Anniversary Party, a new Penguin Style has hit the Gift Shop. If you’ve taken a look, you may realize what this month’s party is, and it is none other than… the Music Jam! After nearly three years, the Music Jam is back, and I’ve got an inside scoop from last week’s mystery guest… Cadence!
“That’s right, party penguins! The most rockin’ party ever is returning to the island! It’s not just me hosting, we’ve got DJ Maxx and the long-awaited return of the Penguin Band as well! There will be tons of shows, outfits, instruments, and much more! We can’t wait for you to see it! I’ll provide some more deets soon. Cadence out!” - Cadence
The Music Jam is currently slated to begin in late May, and it will last a full two weeks! Start tuning your instruments because we’re going to need as many performers as possible!
Tuning In to Igloos!
With the new Penguin Style focusing on the Music Jam, new Igloo Catalogs of the same theme are also quickly on the horizon! I actually got a quick word with everyone’s favorite handy penguin, Rory!
“These new igloo catalogs got everything you need to put on a real showstopper! And of course, with it being Music Jam, the music selection is also very nice this time around. All this talk about the party is getting me excited myself, maybe I should stop by when construction begins…” - Rory
The new Igloo Catalogs are expected to arrive later this week! Music Jam seems to be in full gear now!
Extra Extra!
Ask Aunt Arctic
Dear Aunt Arctic,
Does Rockhopper still visit the island? If so, do you happen to know when he’ll be visiting next?
- PuffleDash
Dear PuffleDash,
To put it simply, yes! Rockhopper does still visit the island. Outside of his very own Rockhopper Island, Club Penguin is his favorite place to be, as our island was his very first home before he set sail!
As for when he comes here, it really just depends on when he is not busy sailing the seven seas! You can surely count on him attending The Fair and the Holiday Party, but outside of that he doesn’t have much of a known visiting schedule.
Come to think of it, it has been several months since he’s last been here. Perhaps he could be due for a visit in the near future!
Dear Aunt Arctic,
I’ve always thought that the Anniversary Party Hats are super cool, each one is so different! I was wondering, who designs them every year?
- azeeno
Dear azeeno,
I’m glad you enjoy the party hats each year, I enjoy them quite a bit as well! This year’s hat is another nice addition to the party hat collection.
As for who designs them, I’m actually not quite sure myself! However, I have noticed a slight pattern that occurs with each color scheme every year.
I’ve noticed that each year there are at least three colors to be used and that each hat tries to look as different as possible from the other hats to really help it stand out from the crowd! I’m excited to see what other future color combinations we may see!

Poetry
In a place far away,
Or perhaps it's really quite near,
There's a secret society,
Working without fear.
They're low on staff, though,
So maybe today...
You can take the test,
To join the PSA.

Pizza so good you dance!
Friendly staff that prance!
Tap water puts you in a trance!
You may even find love at first glance!
So what's your move, will you advance?
Or will you just watch all the romance?
Pizza parlor, I love you, and I sure hope you all do too!
