“It’s time, it’s our record to set, and we want the world to
witness it” says Pat Battie, Promotions Manager for the 49th
Parallel Grocery chain. “It’s our 40th Anniversary in business, it’s
Ladysmith’s 113th Birthday, Canada’s 150th, we have support of
many local and national companies, and North America has
hockey playoff fever. In hockey language, we have on our game
face! Guinness World Records™ has given us the go ahead to
attempt to set this new record title, we are confident, we have
the passion and we have players, young and old, families, friends,
neighbours, everyone is invited to play Canada’s street hockey
game. A game that requires very little equipment, no fancy
uniforms, the only requirement is that you love to have fun and
take part in a big community event, and once the whiffle ball
drops, you can imagine just for a minute you are on the ice, it’s
Game 7 and you can hear thousand of fans cheering on your
team!”
