GET ON BOARD
Be Part of a Record Breaking Event
Bettē & Eddie have been working for several years on their latest attempt for a Guinness World Record (GWR) for the Tallest Sand Sculpture made by hand only. Plans for the final phase are currently underway. The height needed in order for the record to be set is 50 feet and approximately 4 million pounds of sand overall will be utilized. Unlike their previous four World Records for the Tallest Sandcastle, this attempt will be covered from the elements allowing additional time for construction and high definition carving details. A theme for the sculpture is required for the record attempt, and SANDMADE in AMERICA will depict each of the United States and their official State animals.
In order to make the attempt as fun and/or competitive as possible for all participants, an organized Bucket-A-Thon and Bucket Brigade have been established as part of a unique fundraiser for the non-profit Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
We also invite everyone to participate as a general Volunteer as well.

About Sandmade in America
Meet Bettē & Eddie
Bettē & Eddie currently reside at Laurita Winery in New Egypt, NJ as artist in residence. They have been creating art together for many years, producing some incredible pieces that have been showcased on the world stage. Most notably, their Guinness World Records (GWR) for sandcastles have been featured on The Today Show, Good Morning America, The Weather Channel, BBC Radio, USA Today, and the Discovery Channel show Outrageous Acts of Science; Brain vs Brawn just to name a few. Most recently, their sand sculpting was highlighted on HGTV’s hit show Beachfront Bargain Hunt.
Bettē & Eddie combined have made 7 attempts and achieved 4 Guinness World records for the Tallest Sandcastle and collectively they have raised several hundreds of thousands of dollars for various non-profit charities. In 2015, GWR created a brand new record for “Tallest Sand Sculpture By Hand”. Absolutely no machines can be utilized in breaking this record and currently no one has met the minimum threshold of 50 feet to set it. Bettē & Eddie are determined to be the first. Over 4 million pounds of sand will be needed to be hand packed. This is an incredible team building experience for businesses, schools, churches, booster groups, families of all sizes, friends, individuals, etc.
