On This Day In Club Penguin History Special Edition – February 29

By / February 28, 2013


Since 2008 had a leap year, there was a 29th of February. It just so happens to be that Club Penguin had some updates on that day, and rather than not posting them since there is no 29th of February in 2013 I am posting this special edition halfway through February 28th at 12:00 PM PST. Clever, eh?

On the 29th of February in 2008 there were four different updates. There was a new pin, a new sports catalogue, an update for the Ice Fishing game, and finally an update revolving around Rockhopper and his ship.

Starting with the new pin, it was the Aqua Grabber Pin. It was Club Penguin’s 55th pin and could be found at the Cave/Pool room above the lifeguard chair. Switching gears to the sports catalogue, at the time the Sports Shop was still around and the catalogue was not at the Stadium. There were a few new items, one being the Flashing Lure Rod that could be used to catch grey fish in Ice Fishing, which was the update for that game. The final update about Rockhopper and his ship was the Beach being updated for the whole Save The Migrator Campaign as his ship was hit by an iceberg, sank, and was being salvaged through the Aqua Grabber game. The beach showed newly salvaged items. Image from Iceyflake31.

a) We won’t have a Feb. 29th for another three years.
b) Leap years are every four years, not three.
