Holiday Party 2009

The Holiday Party 2009, also known as the Christmas Party 2009, was the 2009 incarnation of Club Penguin's annual Christmas celebration. It began on December 18, 2009 and ended on December 29, 2009. A sleigh ride was instated for members only during this party. Rockhopper returned with Coins for Change 2009 and his ship was decked out for the second time. The Santa Hat returned, but the Santa Beard, Reindeer Antlers, and Christmas Scarf were excluded. There was construction at the Town and the Night Club. One could see the Launch Pad from the Night Club Rooftop on a crane. This was because a sleigh was installed on a roof for members to travel in. The Sleigh would come up from the Launch Pad. Even though the the party was supposed to end on December 27, for some unknown reason, the party ended on December 29, 2009.

Magic Sleigh Ride
One aspect of this party was that there was a party room called the Sleigh Adventure, segregated to members only. It was obviously a Sleigh and it took members on an "adventure" around Club Penguin to help deliver presents by dropping presents into chimneys. A sneak peak of it was released as a login screen which showed four penguins on the Sleigh, with presents in the background. It was a popular place for Santa Penguins. The Sleigh was located on the Night Club Rooftop.

Gifts
The Christmas Party offered "gifts" for penguins. One delivered, the Mystery Present. It was unwraped on Christmas Day and was touted as a big surprise. Gifts were also delivered courtesy of the Sleigh Adventure, as implied by the What's New Blog. It was also possible to send gift postcards via Penguin Mail to both members and non-members.

Trivia

 * Rockhopper was in Club Penguin throughout the party.
 * Coins For Change started on December 11, 2009, the party itself started one week later.
 * The Santa Hat returned again, just like every other Christmas Party.
 * There was a new free item, the Santa Suit, but it was for members only.
 * The Night Club Rooftop came back. This time, it was hosting the Magic Sleigh Ride.
 * There was a glitch with the Magic Sleigh Adventure. When it was loading it would say "Loading Maze". This was because the last members-only party room was the Great Snow Maze during the Winter Party 2009.
 * This was the first party in Club Penguin that used a politically correct alternative term to name a party. In this case, it was called the Holiday Party to not offend people who do not celebrate Christmas.
 * The sky was dark during this party for inexplicable reasons. The sky in the igloo background was also changed to match the sky in the other rooms.
 * There were a bunch of fire extinguishers from place to place. Many penguins think they meant something.
 * A lot of people were very disappointed at the renaming of the event, seen as a sign of unnecessary political correctness.
 * This was the second time the Command Room and HQ were decorated. The first time was during the Christmas Party 2008.
 * You could see the Sleigh from the Town Center.
 * Aunt Arctic said she would make an appearance, as it said so in the Penguin Times, but she only appeared in the last half of the party.
 * At this party, it was the first time the Map changed its background to match the skies around Club Penguin.
 * The Christmas Scarf and Reindeer Antlers never returned for this party.
 * It ended on December 29, 2009, two days after its schedule ending point.
 * Rockhopper said that Yarr decorated The Migrator.
 * Many penguins taught that lava can be seen on the Volcano through the Dojo Courtyard because the sky is dark like the Halloween Party 2009.
 * Many penguins go to the Cove or the Beacon to look through the Binoculars and Telescope and pretending that they're stargazing or bragging that they saw a planet.
 * This was the first time the Map was decorated.
