Family Seeking To Set Guinness World Record Needs More Registrations
August 9, 2023 at 6:17 p.m.
More registrations are needed for an attempt to break a world record on Winona Lake on Sept. 9.
On Sept. 9, the family of Anje Anglin is leading an attempt to set a world record for the longest chain of floating inflatables on Winona Lake in Northern Indiana.
Anglin was diagnosed with ALS in March 2022 and the family seeks to raise awareness of this disease and also funds to assist Anglin with her medical expenses while having fun celebrating community on Winona Lake, according to a provided news release.
Participation in the world record attempt is free. The current world record is 0.62 miles. The attempt this year is to set a 1-mile record. It is anticipated that it will take approximately 900 people on inflatables and two to three hours of time in the morning on Sept. 9.
Launch from shore to lake will begin at 10 a.m. at the Kosciusko County Fairgrounds. All participants must register in advance, wear a life vest, bring their own inflatable and rope to tie to inflatables on both sides. Participants must register online in advance. Details and updates will be distributed via email to those that register.
Participation in this event is at your own risk. No alcohol is to be on fairgrounds property. Children who cannot swim should not participate. All participants must wear a life vest.
All inflatables must be tied to inflatables on both sides to form a chain without gaps. All participants must remain in the chain long enough for official surveying and videography required for Guinness submissions to take place.
“Please join us in setting this record and raising awareness of this horrible disease so we can someday eradicate it! We plan to have a lot of fun celebrating the lives of those lost too soon to ALS, Anglin’s life and ALS journey, and our community!” said Erin Serafino.
An after party is being held the evening of Sept. 9 at Tippy Creek Winery featuring comedy with Rodney Norman and music by David Evans. Tickets are required at www.eventbrite.com.
