Sport Shop

The Sport Shop (or Winter Sports) used to be a store in the Ski Village owned by Gary the Gadget Guy and an orange penguin as an assistant (as shown in Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force). The Sport Shop originally opened on November 3, 2005, as an alternative to the Gift Shop, so penguins could buy clothes there instead, if the Gift Shop was too busy. On August 31, 2007, the Sport Shop was remodeled and the Snow and Sports catalog was released. It was the home of the HQ. This area was eventually replaced by the Everyday Phoning Facility in 2010 after the destruction of the shop due to the Popcorn Explosion. It is possible the Sport Shop may come back in early 2013, but this is highly doubtful. When you ask at the 1st November they can say "I understand you miss the Sport Shop but it's kind of part of the Stadium now." If you ask now they can say "Sport shop is still a mystery, at this time we are unable to disclose what is going to happen." so, it might be hint of Sport Shop rebuild.

Information
The Sport Shop was a building in the Ski Village. In the Sport Shop, there was a secret entrance to PSA HQ, which one could access by taking the test. (You must have been at least 30 days old). You had to answer all of questions, and if you passed, a Spy Phone would be added to your inventory. After this, it was possible to access the HQ using the changing room closest to the door (or teleporting in via your new phone).
