Local Charity Groups Will Team With Baltimore Orioles to Set World Jumping Jack Record

SARASOTA -- On Saturday, May 29, from 9:30-11:30 a.m., Ed Smith Stadium, the Orioles’ spring training home in Sarasota, will play host to an attempt at a Guinness World Record and also help to raise funds in the fight against breast cancer.

OriolesREACH and I Train Your Kids, a group focused on improving the fitness and lifestyle of young kids and teenagers, are teaming with the American Cancer Society to host “Jumping Jacks for a Cure”. The groups will try to set a new Guinness World Record for the “most people doing jumping jacks together". The event is open to all ages with a suggested donation of $5 per child (ages 18 and under) and $10 per adult. The event will raise money for the American Cancer Society’s “Making Strides Against Breast Cancer” effort.
