Join us for a fun-filled afternoon at The Mount! Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro, this event is open to everyone who loves getting their hands sticky with icing and colourful candies.

The Mount is a resident-care facility where residents live and are supported in their daily lives. Many of the residents are seniors. As part of living at the Mount, residents can participate in a variety of fun events and activities, such as this one where they will design and decorate gingerbread masterpieces.

By participating in this Afternoon of Service, you will get to help with the event and interact with residents. You will brighten their day while gaining some experience volunteering with a local organization.

The Mount is located very close to UPEI at 141 Mount Edward Road. There is a trail that connects the UPEI Campus and the Mount. For this event, we will meet on campus and walk as a group to the Mount.

All participants are asked to meet at the Career Studio, Dalton Hall, Room 209 at 2:00 p.m. Please be on time as we will be walking over to the Mount and won't be waiting for anyone if they're late.

The Mount will provide all the necessary supplies, including pre-built gingerbread houses, an assortment of candy, and plenty of icing to bring your visions to life.

Don't miss out on this exciting event! Join us at The Mount for an afternoon filled with laughter, creativity, and delicious gingerbread. Mark your calendars and get ready to bring some holiday fun to The Mount residents!
