Dig Out the Dojo

The Dig Out the Dojo program was presumably started by Sensei, who wandered back to the Dojo (which he actually built) after the Storm, in which the Dojo's roof had been destroyed by lightning.

Outside Renovation: Part 1
This started on Novermber 3, 2008, after the storm from the Halloween Party 2008. Penguins were shocked to see a hole in the roof of the Dojo, and a ladder leading to the top. On top there were several snow covered mounds, a torii (the red gate) with a sign that said "Dig Out The Dojo", and mountains in the distance. A strange penguin, later revealed to be Sensei was digging underneath the torii. Penguins were encouraged to shovel or drill on the snow.

Outside Renovation: Part 2
This section started on November 11, 2008. Now a waterfall was near the mountains behind the Dojo, a wall and two of the mounds were partly uncovered, a door leading inside was built, and the roof of the Dojo was there.

Inside Renovation
The inside of the Dojo didn't change throughout the program. It had wood laying on the sides of the walls, cones, construction tape, lightbulbs, and a ladder/bridge leading up to the hole in the roof. On November 11, 2008, a sign with pads under it was added, which said: TRAINING Coming November 17.
