Mine Shack

The Mine Shack is an area that can be accessed from the Forest, the Map, the Spy Phone or by finishing a game of Cart Surfer. It was a secret room until 4 November, 2008 (due to a map update). It is simply an entrance to the Mine until the room was turned into a recycling center. The Mine Shack is part of the outskirts of commonly known as the Underground. Rory usually works on things here. You can also go to the Recycling Plant.

History
No one knows who built the Mine Shack. It was discovered in summer of 2006 after the opening of the Underground.

The story of the Mine Shack goes: Some explorers hopped on a mine cart and followed the track to see where it would lead. After a zigzagging ride, they ended up outside in a pile of snow near the mountains of Club Penguin Island. They looked back at their exit and thought it looked like a door frame. It was covered in a lot of snow. By the time they had finished digging, they had uncovered the Mine Shack. No one knows how long it was there, covered in piles of snow.It is probably very old, since it is dirty and poorly built.

On April 17, 2010, construction was began on the Mine Shack to make it look nicer and turn it into a recycling center. By the Earth Day 2010 party, the Recycling Plant was completed. This room houses Gary's newest invention, the Recycletron 3000. Penguins then gathered recyclable objects for the Recycletron 3000, which turned the items into Lamps, Anvils, Buoys, or Life Preservers.

Community Garden
In April 2010, a garden was added to the room. If you throw snowballs into the big watering can, a sprinkler will turn on and water the plants. They will then be harvested and stored in the shed. It has been proven that the tree to the left can grow.

The Spinning Arrow Room
The Spinning Arrow is what the Mine Shack turned into on the 1st of April 2010. It was a representation of the loading screen in Club Penguin and it showed random messages like jokes and games. For example Welcome to the Spinning Arrow Room. All you had to do to get to the Mine was to walk onto the spinning arrow.
