Super Stacking Event Tomorrow

My kids and I will be participating in tomorrow's STACK UP world record-setting event sponsored by the World Sport Stacking Association. According to Matt Reed at WSSA (World Sport Stacking Association), Guinness has officially titled this record as Most People Sport Stacking at Multiple Locations in One Day. This is part of the 2006 Guinness World Records Week. The goal is to have stackers engaged in stacking activity for 30 minutes anytime during the day or night on November 6, Monday.

I expect this to be a lot of fun, and that (along with thousands of stackers around the world) we'll set a record for sure. Since this is the first try, any number of people should be a record. Unfortunately, don't expect to see anybody's name listed anywhere in that record. The projected number of participants right now is around 79,000 stackers.

I am writing this on my way home from Boise, Idaho, while sitting at the Boise airport. I will go ahead and add two more stackers to the projected number, because I was able to recruit two more youth, Kayla and Caleb, to participate in the event.
