NORTH RIDGEVILLE, Ohio Although they didn t succeed, it was still worth the try. Lake Ridge Academy in North Ridgeville attempted to break a Guinness World Record for the most cereal boxes toppled in a domino fashion Wednesday. Their goal? To knock down 4,567 cereal boxes during their record attempt.
But their attempt failed when the boxes stopped falling.
While they didn t break the record, it was still done for a good cause. Organizers say Lake Ridge Academy sourced more than 7,000 cereal boxes from students, parents and community collection partnerships with Mercy Health, the North Ridgeville Police Department and more than 20 corporate sponsors. Those cereal boxes will be donated to Second Harvest Food Bank, North Ridgeville Community Care and other local food banks, organizers said.
