Keep your eyes peeled--the UPEI Co-operative Education program will be selling potatoes across campus the week of September 17-21 for UPEI’s first ever Potato Roll.

What is a potato roll?

Just what it sounds like—the potato that rolls the farthest distance down the hill wins half of the money from the potato sales for its owner. The other half of the money raised will be donated to the UPEI Campus Food Bank.

How to be a “partici-tater”?

Potatoes can be purchased for $2 each from Co-op students. On Friday, October 5 at noon the potatoes will roll! You’re welcome to be a spec-tater at the roll, but it is optional. Winners who are not present will be contacted via the contact information they wrote on their potato at the time of purchase.

For more information or to request students stop by your office, please contact co-op@upei.ca.

Note—sales are being tracked by faculty, with a prize being awarded to the Faculty with the highest potato sales.
