Mount Allison University heats up with Summer Shinerama Activities

The MTA crew all finished a successful bottle drive!

MTA Shinerama has had a busy month of June and we wanted to share some of their exciting activities with everyone. The Shine Squad, their summer committee, kicked off with a successful bottle drive and a pub crawl. Shiners have been busy doing lots of grocery bagging and online fundraising with 4 teams already on the board!!

The second week of June was also the start of their "Shiner of the Week" contest.  MTA students or alumni from near and far can fundraise individually and enter the contest to win the title plus a prize valued at approximately $100.00!

Here’s their most recent event – a flash mob hip-shake at the local Moncton Market!
