When: Friday, January 29  |  3 – 5 pm
Where: St. George Youth Center located at 889 Camino Del Sur, Isla Vista, (next to Estero Park)

I have my supplies, now what?

Prep! It’s time to make your cookies and icing. Follow the directions on the recipes and do your best! We encourage all participants to have their cookies and icing ready, so we can spend time decorating with you. We will be decorating heart and lip shaped cookies, but feel free to make whatever shape you’d like!

Tune In! Join the Zoom room at 11 am on Saturday, February 6 and get ready for some cookie decorating fun!
