Claim ID: 297310
Membership Number: 253998

Dear Miss O'Day,

Thank you for your latest correspondence regarding the rejection of your recent record proposal for 'largest display of knitted mice'. We have noted your comments regarding our decision to reject your claim, and have discussed your case further.

While we do recognise a wide variety of record-breaking achievements, those that we choose to include in our database are those that, at our discretion, are measurable, quantifiable, breakable, and of interest to our audience. They are also records that we anticipate will be attempted again in the future. We receive over 60,000 enquiries every year and so we hope you can appreciate that we are bound to favour the records that reflect the greatest interest.

Therefore our initial position still stands and this is our final decision.

Unfortunately, given that we receive well in excess of 60,000 enquiries and claims per year, we regret that we will not be able to enter into any further correspondence regarding this particular claim.

Once again, we thank you for your interest Guinness World Records.

Yours sincerely,

Kimberly Partrick
Records Management Team
