During our day of competition the students played a variety of speedstacking activities and were able to try their hand at timing their stacking skills. Participants included students, teachers, and parents.
Pella now has students who own up to four Guinness Book World Records if they have participated over the past three years and were part of the Pella Community record for the largest group of clogged dancers.
