ISSUE 20 APRIL 2012
CBH Campers Assist in Breaking a World Record | |
 Our junior campers, counselor staff, and case managers participated in an egg-dyeing event for the Guinness World Record! The group, along with hundreds of other area residents, visited Eagle's Nest in Milton, Delaware, for the Guinness-sanctioned, record-setting event. 606 people simultaneously dyed their eggs, breaking the previous record of 317 set in Charleston, SC.
Campers dyed one or more eggs and received a certificate of achievement for their contribution. The activity prompted much discussion about other kinds of world records and even a few wild suggestions for records to break over the upcoming summer camp season! Following the egg-dyeing event, campers participated in an egg hunt, face painting, and other group activities. Way to go campers! |
