NE Campus hosts water balloon fight

Sponsors hope the world’s largest water balloon fight will take place 8 a.m.-1 p.m. May 14 on NE Campus.

Mike Stevens, a local business owner, aims to break the world record for the largest water balloon fight while raising money for Cook Children’s Hospital.

The record is currently held by the University of Kentucky’s Christian Student Fellowship, which hosted a fight that saw 5,976 participants throw 153,497 water balloons.

Anyone age 13 and above is welcome to participate, with age 12 and under requiring adult supervision. All participants must register with Mike Stevens at 817-371-1266, in his office at 625 Bedford-Euless Road in Hurst, or online at mikesvideotransfer.com.

Registration costs $10 but comes with a bag of water balloons. Day-of registration is $12.
