For a few days there has been a unicorn in the Bella Coola Valley because of the imagination of a child.

Lexi Gunderson, 11, dressed her horse Ocean up as a unicorn on the weekend after her riding instructor invited her to a Halloween event.

“All the kids loved her,” Lexi said of Ocean and her attire.

“She had shiny hooves, a coloured mane, a tail and a unicorn horn.”

Lexi said they spent the day doing games, hanging out with horses and so much more.

On Halloween from 4 to 7 p.m. the Bella Coola RCMP are inviting children to visit the detachment.
