Sweetheart Diapers & More and bump maternity + baby join forces to Host Windsor, Ontario Site of the Second Annual World-Record Setting
“Great Cloth Diaper Change” International Event
Sweetheart Diapers & More http://www.sweetheartdiapers.com and bump maternity + baby http://www.bumpmaternityonline.com are working together to host the Windsor site of an international cloth diaper changing event taking place on Saturday, April 21, 2012, the day before Earth Day and during International Cloth Diaper Awareness Week. In its second year with over 230 sites in 13 countries, The Great Cloth Diaper Change event will attempt to break last year’s Guinness World Record™ of 5,026 cloth diapers changed simultaneously.
"Each year billions of disposable diapers enter landfills where it takes hundreds of years for them to decompose, if ever,” says Heather McNamara, Executive Director of the Real Diaper Association. “Building off the success of last year’s event with 127 locations in five countries, we hope to show the entire world that cloth diapers are a real option for today’s modern families, particularly catching the eye of expecting and new parents who may be seeking more planet-friendly and affordable alternatives to disposable diapers.”
To date, there are more than 25 mom and baby pairs already registered to participate in the Windsor event, which is still several weeks away. We anticipate approximately 100 people in attendance. The event will take place at 12:00pm at Sweetheart Diapers & More, 4782 Wyandotte St. E. In addition to the Great Cloth Diaper Change world-recording setting activity, there will also be snacks and refreshments, family-friendly activities, goodie bags, and free prizes.

About The Great Cloth Diaper Change: In its second year, The Great Cloth Diaper Change is an international initiative organized with the help of the nonprofit Real Diaper Association designed to show the world that cloth diapers are a real option for today’s families. The brainchild of Judy Aagard of Tiny Tots in California, Aagard says she came up with the idea in an effort to host a family event celebrating Earth Day. The Great Cloth Diaper Change has morphed into an exciting Guinness World Record™ breaking event, and in 2011, more than 5,000 babies were changed simultaneously.
