Saturday, 12th October 2024, will be remembered as a landmark day for Campbelltown, as King Kebab House achieved a Guinness World Record for the World’s Largest Serving of Halal Snack Pack (HSP). Over 5,000 people gathered to witness this extraordinary event, which saw the HSP stretch across an impressive 130 metres. The massive serving not only put Campbelltown on the world map but also brought the community together in a spirit of generosity and fun.
Led by Mevlana Cifci, King Kebab House has become a symbol of community engagement and support. The event was a testament to this commitment, as all proceeds were donated to the 24 Hour Fight Against Cancer Macarthur, a cause close to the hearts of many in the region. The successful record-breaking attempt was met with cheers from the crowd, who were later invited to enjoy a free feast of the enormous HSP. This act of giving back to the community highlighted the true essence of the event: not just setting a world record but also supporting a worthy cause.
The day was filled with more than just food. Young Innovators Australia organised fun-filled activities, including a Treasure Hunt for children, where young participants eagerly searched for hidden treasures. Each time they collected all their stamps, they were rewarded with lolly bags. The treasure hunt was a huge hit with the kids, keeping them engaged and entertained throughout the event.
To top off the day, a lively Kahoot quiz was held, with participants of all ages competing for prizes. The quiz brought the community together in a fun and interactive way, rounding out the event with laughter and excitement.
Overall, the event was a resounding success, blending record-breaking achievements, community support, and family-friendly entertainment. King Kebab House, Young Innovators Australia, and the local council all played crucial roles in making this day one to remember. The event not only achieved its goal of setting a world record but also strengthened community bonds and supported a noble cause, leaving a lasting impact on everyone who attended.
Campbelltown is proud to have been part of this momentous occasion, and the day will surely go down in history as a shining example of the power of community spirit, generosity, and unity.
