Huge, Pride-themed dreamcatcher in St. John's may be world's largest

It willbe hard to miss one special float in the St. John's Pride Parade on Sunday the dreamcatcherthatthe Native Friendship Centre built for the event might just be the world's largest.

"We didn'treally set out to break a record, but we wanted to make something that really made a statement," said Heidi Dixon, the centre's community program developer.

About 10people cobbled the rainbow-coloureddreamcatchertogether from an old trampoline, ropeand "a lot of spray paint."

"When we want to do something, we want to do something big, so we went as big as we could," said Dixon.

This year's Pride week theme is "Stronger Together," and Dixon said their creation naturally fit with that.

"Dreamcatchers are all about everything is connected, everything goes well together," she said.

"We really wanted to represent ourculture, so we came together as a committee and we decided that a dreamcatcher would be the best thing we can do."

The centre has reached out to Guinness World Records to try and verify what they believe is the world's biggest dreamcatcher,a process Dixon said takes about 12 weeks.

In the meantime, sheand her team have been hard at work making the rainbow mobile for Sunday's parade, a feat that requires a little bit of engineering, and lot of muscle.

"We're going to have some strong people thatcan push it on wheels."
