It will be one for the record books when your family participates in the Guinness World Records Program, 2 to 3:30 p.m. Monday, March 25 at River Forest Public Library, 735 Lathrop Ave.
“We will have our meeting room set up in stations,” said Sue Quinn, head of Children’s Services. “Each station will have information about a current world record along with an activity which is modeled after past Guinness World Records. We will give each participant two minutes at each station to try the activity to see how their efforts match up with the record.”
Quinn said some of the activities are balancing coins, toppling dominoes, typing the alphabet and putting on multiple boxer shorts. Participants will move from station to station at set timed intervals. You and your kids will record your own results as you challenge the records.
This fun family drop-in event is designed for participants of all ages.
