Mentorship Winter Fest: Closing Celebration!

Dec 4, 2008

Michigan Union Pendleton Room

This year we ended Mentorship with Winter Fest, a final event that doubled as a mentor recognition. Over 70 participants decorated gingerbread houses, played board games, and made greeting cards as they gathered one last time with their mentorship groups to say farewell. The 2008 Mentors of the Year and graduating senior peer mentors were also recognized and awarded at this event, which was planned and staffed by the Mentorship Communication Coordinators.

Our second annual event drew Mentorship participants from all over campus to taste and rate pizzas donated from local businesses. This was one of the many events planned by our staff where Mentorship groups were able to meet, catch up and plan activities. Through our highly sophisticated nomination system, Pizza House was voted Best Pizza in Ann Arbor by Mentorship.
