Billybob made a special announcement on the Community Blog about the virtual coats drive. An event will be held this Friday in New York City for people who want to donate a real coat. The most exciting part of this, is that Rockhopper and Billybob himself will be there to greet people! Here is the invitation for it:

When: Friday December 2 8:00am EST
Where: Good Morning America Studios – Times Square, New York
What to bring: a real coat to donate to the Warm Coats Warm Hearts campaign

It is recommended that you show up with a coat. If you choose to bring one, the first 300 people to do so will receive a Club Penguin plush toy prize! This plush toy might be a special one for the event, or might even come with a special code. Are any of you attending this? If so, I’d like to know your experience after you return!

Have any of you penguins ever wanted a free membership for doing something which can only take 10 to 20 minutes? Well, Club Penguin have sent over 50,000 emails to only a few penguins, just picked out of random. Well, I was lucky and I was one of the penguins that got this lucky email! How about you take a looks at it?

Pretty cool eh? But I guess some of you penguins are just thinking. .  What’s the link at the bottom for? Well, this is there for us penguins to go to and complete a survey on how Club Penguin should improve and then we get a membership.  Here’s what the Survey was like.

If you think this is cool, and didn’t get the email you could simply click here to go to the site. Unfortunately, you need a ‘User Name’ which will be your penguin name, which will also be included in the email you get. How about you leave a comment telling us what you think and if you got the email?

After all of the recent rumors about Club Penguin to increase the prices of Memberships, they have spoken out on the What’s New blog about it. The changes in pricing only affect those who live in United States and Canada. For those people, Club Penguin membership will be $7.95 a month, $39.95 for 6 months and $59.95 for 12 months. This will start on July 13th.

However, if you have a recurring membership, you will not be paying the new price. You will still be paying the $5.95 as long as you stay a member. You’ll also be able to use membership cards with the old price if you already have them.

A lot of this information is disappointing to many penguins. But, Club Penguin does want us to realize that this increase is to help improve the game. Here is what Billybob, a representative of Club Penguin, told us about the increase:

Ever since we launched Club Penguin, we’ve released tons of new games, features and special events, and donated millions of dollars to charitable projects to help kids around the globe. The new price will allow us to create even more great content that will make Club Penguin even better.

I think that this has its advantages and disadvantages. Do you think that more penguins will stop purchasing memberships now? I’m happy that recurring members are allowed to keep paying the old price, but what about penguins who buy Membership cards? I think that this is kind of unfair.

I recently checked my email when I noticed a new newsletter from Club Penguin about some new updates for June. I also noticed that there was a free code on the bottom where you can redeem free coins onto any account. Here’s an image of the newsletter.

If you cannot read what the code is, it says “JUNNLR11″. Have you redeemed your code? I just did!

A brand new Treasure Book has arrived in Club Penguin! The new Series 13 Treasure Book can be unlocked buy purchasing a Club Penguin toy that includes a Club Penguin Series 13 coin code. Here are all of the Club Penguin Cheats for the Series 13 Treasure Book.

2. Click on the bottom stone on the wall.

Here is what the exclusives look like:

I don’t really like the new exclusives for this Treasure Book, but the other items seem kind of cool. What do you think of all of the items in it? You can go check out the Club Penguin Series 13 Treasure Book by going to the Club Penguin website.

A brand new type of card game is coming soon in toy stores near you! This new game will be the official Elite Penguin Force Card Game. It will be released this summer, most likely around July 2011. Here is a description of the EPF Card Game Starter Deck:

Introducing The Elite Penguin Force Card Game from Topps. Choose Which Agent or Agents are Needed to Solve Your Missions. For 2 to 4 Players. Fast Paced and Captures the World of Elite Penguin Force. Look for Your Favorite EPF Characters like Gary the Gadget Guy,
Each starter box with hanger hole contains 55 Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force cards PLUS 1 Club Penguin Coin Code card PLUS 1 Rules Sheet wrapped in 2 clear poly finseal packs.

This will actually be really cool. The Club Penguin Coin Code that comes with it will unlock coins to purchase special EPF gear. It will also include the following:

- 45 Playing Cards
- 10 Mission Cards
- Code Card to Unlock Agent Gear

There is also information about how to play the game! To play the Elite Penguin Force Card Game, you will need to collect the most mission points. You collect mission points by completing tasks given to you by your mission card. The mission card is given out at the beginning of the game. For example, a mission card will say “Find 3 numbers in a row”. Once you complete a mission, you pick up another mission card. Since each mission card has a certain number, you add up your number of mission card points. The first person to reach 5 mission points will win.

This game looks really awesome in my opinion! I will keep you updated with more information as it reveals. Remember to leave a comment and tell me your thoughts about the game so far.

There is a picture of a new Club Penguin book that was found from Borders, called “Club Penguin Activity Adventure”. Unfortunately, I was unable to find a description of the book, but I do know that it will be released around late July 2011. This is actually going to be one of the few Club Penguin books that will be hardcover. Here is a picture of it:

Until we have a description posted about the book, we don’t really know what it’s going to include yet. It also doesn’t include any features that are listed on the cover. So, what do you think this book we be about or include? Leave a comment and let me know!

I also have a second book that will be arriving in early December of this year. This book is called “Before Card-Jitsu: The Ninja Quest”. This book has not yet revealed a description or an image, but I will keep you updated when I find more information about it.

If you find more images or details or descriptions about these books, leave a comment with your information that you would like to send in. Thank you.
