WABI Reports on MAAV World Record to Raise Awareness of Relationship Violence

WABI (Channel 5) reported on an event held by the University of Maine student group Male Athletes Against Violence (MAAV) to raise awareness about relationship violence. The event, Unwrapping the Not-So-Sweet Truth of Relationship Violence, also aimed to set a Guinness World Record for the largest number of candies unwrapped at one time. More than 600 students and community members unofficially set the record and are submitting to Guinness for verification. Spencer Wood, an MAAV member, said the group thought the event would be a fun way to attract people to come out and learn about relationship abuse.
