The Penguin Games was a special event in Club Penguin. The news was released in The Club Penguin Times. It was modeled after the Olympic Games with Rory and Rookie as commentators. The party lasted from August 22 to about 12:00 PM PST August 27, 2008. It was similar to the Sports Party in 2006. The Soccer Pitch was said to be a temporary members only replacement for the Ice Rink, however it remained for both members and non-members until the Ice Rink was finally brought back during the Christmas Party 2008.

Prizes and Awards

There were three free items at each of the penguin games:

Blue Face Paint (at the Pizza Parlor)
Red Face Paint (at the Coffee Shop)
Gold Medal (only available after completing the three competitions)

The medal was won by completing all the events, similar to the Fall Fair. There were 3 events: Marathon (start from the Ski Village and the end is at the Cove), Three Lap Race at the Iceberg, and the Swimming Event at the Underground Pool. Members gained access to the Soccer Pitch as stated in Issue #149 of the Penguin Times. Rookie also stated that G had a surprise waiting for the Marathon runners.

Other sports that did not count for the medal included Members-only soccer at the Soccer Pitch (also known as The Party), Ice Hockey at the Ice Rink, Sled Racing, Mancala, and Find Four tournaments.

Another interesting note is that each color team had a central building or area, with Red's being the Town (mainly the Coffee Shop) and the Blue Team at the Plaza (mainly the Pizza Parlor).

The Gold Medal you received if players completed all the tasks.

Trivia

This is the only time the Ice Rink and Stadium were there at the same time.
The Dock sold ground coffee for two coins a cup at a coffee stand. This was a joke referring to the comic with ground coffee.
