Ice Busters celebrate anniversary of world record ice carousel, plan to go bigger in 2020
>> "The Ice Busters claimed the world record title from ice carousel enthusiasts in Lohja, Finland, and in doing so raised nearly $8,000 for the Aroostook County Meals on Wheels program, which provides local senior citizens with meals delivered to their homes.The World Ice Carousel Association recognized the record with a plaque that now hangs on a wall at the Long Lake Sporting Club.
However, another group in Minnesota, led by the family of the late Sunny Zwilling, topped the feat this January in memory of their loved one, carving a 506.2 -foot ice carousel out of Green Prairie Fish Lake."
>> "Cyr expressed his respect for the accomplishment of the Zwilling family in breaking the Ice Busters’ record, and in fact wore a hat with the Zwilling family insignia to the hot dog roast on Sunday."
>> "The Minnesota group, on their own Facebook page, expressed support and appreciation for the Ice Busters that same day."
