Largest dream catcher in the world designed to harness ‘energetic power’

Rama resident, Bob Williams, has set out to break the Guinness World Record for the largest dream catcher in the world, with the support of his community. The massive dream catcher, standing at over 30 meters wide and 18 meters high, now graces the John Snake Memorial Multipurpose Grounds at Rama First Nation.

Williams, a seasoned dream catcher maker, was inspired to pursue this record after seeing a picture of the current record holder in Lithuania, which he believed did not embody the true essence of a traditional dream catcher. With the help of several community members, local businesses, and the Chippewas of Rama First Nation, Williams was able to gather the necessary supplies and construct the impressive structure.

The dream catcher, made from sinew, willow, ash, and rope, weighs an estimated 2,000 pounds and is held together by thousands of feet of sinew and rope. Williams, along with community member Kathy Manners, is finalizing the Guinness World Record submission this week, with hopes of official recognition in 12 weeks.

Williams emphasizes that the dream catcher is not just a symbol for his community but for people of all cultures to enjoy. He believes in the spiritual power of dream catchers to eliminate bad spirits and nightmares, and hopes that his record-setting creation will help keep the Rama First Nation community safe.

With its impressive size and spiritual significance, Williams’s dream catcher is set to make a lasting impact on all who encounter it at the powwow grounds.
