 The Guinness world record for the largest snowball is measuring 7.07 m (23 ft 2.5 in) in circumference and was rolled by Wesley Fowlks and his team (all USA) on the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth Campus, MA, USA.

  Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the largest snowball fight, achieved by 5,387 participants, and organised by Jong-Gi Park (Republic of Korea), the Mayor of Taebaek City, at the 17th Mt. Taebaek Snow Festival Main Event Hall, Mt. Taebaek, Gangwon-do, Republic of Korea.

  "The massive winter monolith is symbolic of how business is snowballing thanks in part to the new February holiday," said Marke Dickson, sales and marketing director, Silver Star Mountain Resort.

  "Our giant snowball is the new icon for the My1Pass and the endless fun offered at Silver Star."

  The Canada West Ski Areas Association lobbied the provincial government to place B.C. Family Day ahead of February holidays in other provinces and U.S. states.
