Sand Castle Builders Make 32-Foot Castle For Record

The creator of a sand castle built nearly 32 feet high to raise funds for terminally ill children and their families hopes the structure will be named the world's tallest.

Organizers say the elaborate sand castle measures a height of 31 feet, 7 inches. They will be sending the paperwork to the Guinness Book of Records, which will determine whether the castle makes the record book.

More than 1,000 people volunteered over the past two months to help build the castle, which used 40 dump truck loads of sand.
