In an unprecedented event, Camp Simcha has broken the Guiness World Record for the longest gold pediatric cancer awareness ribbon. Amber Masso chairwoman of the American childhood cancer association, the town representative of Glen Spey and two officials were present to witness the event. Campers and staff flooded onto the soccer field hand in hand. Everyone stood three in a row walking into formation – a giant cancer awareness ribbon. All of the participants were wearing their camp shirt, a gold hat, gold glove and a bracelet supporting pediatric cancer awareness. Once everyone was in position a Chai Lifeline mascot ran around handing each person a piece of the ribbon. Everyone raised the ribbon as high as they could. Music started to play and the cheering began. “We are golden!” everyone shouted in unison. On the count of ten, everyone placed the ribbon on the ground and threw their hats in the air. Golden gloved hands were raised in a wave that traveled the length of the ribbon. Then, It was time to step back and allow the officials to measure the ribbon. Congratulations To Camp Simcha for setting a new world record!
