In 2018 Main Street Skowhegan and the Town of Skowhegan set the new Guinness World Record for the most people moose calling simultaneously!
The record was established on June 9, 2018, at the Skowhegan Moose Festival when 1,054 people participated in the world record attempt led by Registered Maine Guide Roger Lambert.
Hosted by Main Street Skowhegan, the weekend-long festival at the historic Skowhegan Fairgrounds attracted an estimated 6,000 people from across 13 states, and video of the world record attempt on the Skowhegan Moose Festival Facebook page garnered more than 16,000 views. The Guinness World Records review process took eight months to verify the exact number of people moose calling simultaneously.
