Join us for a night where dreams come true!

Dream Night, presented by Michigan Educational Credit Union, provides families of children with chronic or terminal illnesses a night to remember.

To accomplish this, Dream Night will be limited to 1,000 pre-approved guests to ensure a smooth, safe and enjoyable experience for all.
