| Miss Teen Newfoundland & Labrador 2003 Ashley Bursey On August 24, Ashley and the Miss Teen Newfoundland & Labrador Pageant, coordinated a Guinness Book of World Records attempt for the Largest Group Hug at Marine Park in Pouch Cove. While we weren't successful in breaking the current record of 4,703 people, we sure had fun trying! |
| Registration began at 3:00 p.m. Following the Guinness Book of World Records guidelines, each participant had to sign their name, which was witnessed by two people. Then, they were given a participant number. |

| Ashley would like to thank everyone who participated in the Largest Group Hug event! Please remember to donate to the Community Food Sharing Association! |
