User blog:Shurow/Top 5- Club Penguin Summers

Hello fellow wikians! I’m sure a lot of you noticed that I haven’t been active much lately, and that’s because I’ve been having a busy summer so I haven’t had much time for chat or editing. Last night I started thinking about the great summers Club Penguin used to have and it gave me a great idea. I thought about making my very own Top 5 blog! I’ve always wanted to make my own top 5, but never really had any ideas. So today I decided to share my top 5 of Club Penguin’s best summers.

5 - 2006
At number five of the list I have the summer of 2006. I didn’t play Club Penguin at the time, but I know enough about it to know that it was a great Summer! In June, there was the Summer Party, the perfect kickoff to the perfect summer. In July, cowboys and cowgirls all over the island gathered around for a square dance at the Western Party. (That sounded kind of lame, I know). In August, penguins geared up for one of the biggest Club Penguin sporting events in history. With the release of a new room, the addition of the pool in the Cave, the release of Cart Surfer, and the fact that it was Club Penguin’s first summer, the summer of 2006 definitely earns a spot in the top 5.

4 - 2011
Number 4 on the list we have, the summer of 2011. I had quit Club Penguin in December 2010, so I missed most of 2011, including the summer. Even though I wasn’t there, I can tell it looked like a great summer! Usually held in July, Club Penguin decided to switch it up and hold the Music Jam in June and hold the Island Adventure Party in July. The Music Jam was just as epic as every other year. It added an epic new stage at the Iceberg and a new rock look for the Penguin Band. In July the Island Adventure Party was bigger and better than ever! It included an island wide scavenger hunt, a few cool pins to collect, and a pirate ship battle. Then in August there was the Great Snow Race. Not only that but the EPF went undercover to capture Herbert once and for all (five months to be exact) and put him to sleep in Operation: Hibernation. The summer of 2011 was action packed and seemed epic, and deserves a place in the top 5.

3 - 2009
2009, not only was an epic year overall, it also had a pretty epic summer. In June, Club Penguin had it’s very first Adventure Party. In July, the Music Jam returned and was even bigger and better than ever! In fact, it was so great, it’s in my top 10 of favorite parties EVER!! Then in August, Club Penguin had the Festival of Flight, of the biggest Club Penguin parties in history. I never actually attended the festival because I wasn’t allowed on the computer at the time, but I know that if I did, it would definitely be in my top 10. 2009 was also my first year as a member, so the experience at the Adventure Party and Music Jam were so much better for me. 2009’s epic parties earn it a place in the top 5.

2 - 2008
At number 2 comes my favorite year in Club Penguin, 2008. In the summer of 2008, we saw the return of the Water Party in June, the very first Music Jam in July, and Club Penguin’s very first olympic event. In early June, mysterious tremors caused by Herbert showed up around the Town. This led to a new PSA mission called Mysterious Tremors, probably my favorite mission. The Water Party came back better than ever and even included a huge Mega Whale party room. In July the first ever Music Jam, one of the most popular Club Penguin parties of all time, was held. The Penguin Band became mascots and were meetable for the first time. DJ3K also released during the party. In August, the Summer Olympics were being held in China, so to celebrate, Club Penguin held the first ever Penguin Games! Penguins competed in marathons, swimming meets, and relay races to earn gold medals. That summer had 3 epic parties, a new cool PSA mission, and an awesome new game, but it wasn’t enough to earn the number 1 spot.

1 - 2007
And finally at number 1, we have the summer of 2007. It’s the most epic summer in Club Penguin history for many reasons. It had not one, not two, but THREE summer related events. In June, the Summer Kickoff Party returned. The party returned with much more decoration, and gave away a record setting, 5 free items. A brand new mini-game called Catchin' Waves was also released. In July, a crab cracked the window in the Cave, and the Underground flooded. As a result, penguins put together a water party to help clear it all out. It became one of the most well liked parties of the summer, of the year, and eventually, all time. Then in August, the island became Camp Penguin in Club Penguin’s first ever camping event. The decorations weren’t great, but it was still a fun party and a great event. In late July, there was an avalanche in the mountains and resulted in the PSA’s 4th mission, Avalanche Rescue. Rockhopper also had a busy summer in 2007, as he came back to the island 3 times during the summer. Once for each month of the summer. With 3 incredible parties, a surfing mini-game, a new PSA mission, and Rockhopper’s many appearances, 2007 brought a whole new meaning to the word summer. It definitely deserves the number one spot.

Well there is my top 5! Remember this is my opinion, so there is no need for criticism. In fact, leave a comment below and tell me YOUR top 5 of Club Penguin’s best summers. If you haven’t played Club Penguin for that long, who cares, make one anyway.

(P.S. I only made this because I was bored. XD)
