We just returned from a week-long stay at the Beach Club Resort and daily visits to all the parks. To my surprise, we never saw the Dream Team anywhere. Further, I only noticed a few people with Dream Team rewards (i.e. mouse ears, all-day Fast Passes, etc.). I was expecting the Dream Team to be much more visible throughout the parks, especially with all the marketing of this event on TV, newspapers, etc.

In October we didn't really see them at all but in January we won 2 dreams. Then in May/June we didn't see them again. I think it really depends on being at the right place at the right time, because there is definately a chance to not even see them at all like they don't even exist. Weird, isn't it?

This is defiantely not the most visible Disney Promotion at the parks. But I can assure they do exist, I actually have a friend who is on the Dream Team. They are not easy to spot and this was done intentionally so people would be able to follow them around the parks and harass them. It really is about being in the right place at the right time.

The Dream Team seems to appear and disappear quickly. I won a pin lanyard at Living with the Land. When our boat returned to the dock, the Cast Members were waiting. Moments after each guest collected his prize, they were gone.

I also saw a group of Cast Members at Dinosaur, but my party did not win anything.

I agree with the above poster- I think it is intentional that guests do not see them around the park. However, during my June trip, I saw TONS of people who had won dreams. In every park I saw more people than I expected to with the special edition mouse ears and dream fastpasses. It made it seem like the Dream Team was everywhere, but that we were just missing them!

In December, we were lucky enough to win dream fast passes on the tower of terror. We also saw a lot of dream team members throughout the parks. In june, we saw a lot of people wearing dream fast passes and the ears, but we didn't weren't fortunate enough to receive anything. I did see them though not as much as in December! SOOOO...they are there!!!:mickey:

I haven't been there yet to see them or not but I sure hope I run into them in September!

We were there for 8 days in May and never saw them either, not once. We opened and closed each park each day and never saw a sign of them. I was hoping even if we didn't win anything to at least see someone else get something. Oh well when we go back it will be over with.

In their official rules, their is some language that led me to believe that the quantity of give aways would vary from day to day. It has been quite a while since I read the rules, but I think it even says that there could be days that they don't give out anything.

I can't say for sure that this explains why you didn't spot them but if you were there when they weren't giving out so much then that could explain it. Then again, maybe you were just not in the right place at the right time, this is something I know a lot about!!

Since it's during peak season and with many people in the parks, it may be harder to find the Dream Team.

Jeff, we just returned from a 15-day stay - we visited at least one park each day - and I still couldn't tell you for sure if we saw them or not. Does anyone know if they wear plaid?:mickey:

We didn't see any "teams" per say, but we saw a few of the dream fast passes hanging on people. Not all the dreams are "things". Some are events, such as our being chosen to be the First Family for the American Adventure show in Epcot's world pavillion.

:mickey: I can't believe what I am reading...we spent 8 days and 9 nights opening and closing some park every night we were there, between the dates of June 16 - June 24, and there wasn't a day that went by where we didn't see a member of the "Dream Team" at least once in every park...they were dressed in blue shirts, khaki bottoms, carried a big black over the shoulder tote and wore an earpiece...Dream Team Disney ears were seen quite frequently, to include those a top of our dear friends heads...can't even begin to count how many Dream Team fast passes we saw...it was actually a really neat experience...will let you know in November 2007 how often we see them...

FUN FUN :tigger: FUN

I think you probably experienced a Magical Moment. Unless it was the Dream Team presenting this, then I stand corrected. :mickey: But my daughter experienced a similar "Moment" at Country Bears.

W were there from June 17-26 and we saw Dream Team Members every day! In fact we won two prizes! My son was deemed an Official "Lost Boy" outside of Peter Pan's Flight and given a cretificate, Pixie Dust, and we were escorted right onto the ride:thumbsup: And then the next day we were about to get into A Bug's Life at AK and we were given with a group of other's official YoMD Lanyards with 4 limited Edition Pins each! We'll see what we see when we are back in August;)

We're heading to WDW in early August and honestly don't expect to see any dream team roaming around...maybe being a bit cynical. I'll be sure to let you all know if we do tho!

We saw them several times when we were there last month.
One time we walked right past them. A couple of them smiled and said hello, but I guess it just wasn't the time or place for any "dreams"...:shrug:
