World's Largest Hockey Stick is in Duncan BC

Largest Hockey Stick and Puck in the world
Located in Duncan British Columbia on Vancouver Island

The World's Largest Hockey Stick & Puck is 40 times life size.
The shaft and blade of the stick are made in sections with steel-reinforced Douglas Fir beams measuring 3 foot by 4 foot (91.44 cm by 1.2192 m) for a total length of 205 feet (62.48 metres).
The stick weighs 28,118 kg (61,000 pounds) and was built in Penticton BC. The final product was trucked to Vancouver in two pieces, spliced together on the ground, then lifted into position on August 21, 1985.
After the fair in Vancouver, the hockey stick was transported to Vancouver Island by barge and 3 flat bed trucks exactly two years later, on August 21, 1987.
The World's Largest Hockey Stick & Puck was dedicated at the Cowichan Community Centre in Duncan on May 21, 1988, two years to the day after Expo '86 opened.
The Guinness Book of World Records officially granteded the title of World's Largest Hockey Stick on July 14, 2008 after a 20-year battle for recognition. At one third the length of Duncan's stick, residents of Eveleth, Minnesota can no longer claim their 21-metre wooden hockey stick to be the biggest.
