Let's break a world record together!

Saturday, 29 February 2020

WHERE:

The Flour Mill of Summer Hill
16 Flour Mill Way, Summer Hill, NSW 2130 Australia

WHY:
We are coming together to raise and awareness for Youth Off The Streets, break the current world record and shine a light on homelessness in Australia!

Register and collect a poncho (even after registering online you still need to check in to collect your poncho to secure your place - limited to 1000 places).
Listen out for your poncho colour to be announced and then head to the entry point. Be sure you are counted as you enter the Plaza.
Put your hood on, and stand in place for 5 minutes. Wait for the announcement... Did we break the record??? Listen up for the fundraising tally announcement.

A representative from GUNNESS WORLD RECORDS™ will be on-site to make sure we follow all the rules. They will announce it on the day if we are successful.

Can kids participate?

Absolutely! They just need to be able to stand in place with their hood on for 5 minutes

I'm attending with my friends and family, can we stand together?

Yes, you can! Let the check-in team know when you register and we will make sure you are all in the same colour.

We stand in place for just 5 minutes. It will take around 15 minutes to get
everyone in their spot. The rest of the day is a celebration!

Can I come at the last minute?
