I attended my first ever Windy City Pin Traders event last month. We had so much fun, we went again today for the April Meeting. That first time wasn't a fluke. We had A LOT of fun, mainly because we brought even more pins than that first time. So we managed to do quite a bit more of pin trading with fellow pin traders. Again, these are some of the nicest people around, and it felt very comfortable being around them.
The event this month had a very special guest. Tom Tumbusch, the publisher of Tomart's Disneyana Guide to Pin Trading, Tomart's Disneyana Collector Magazine and other publications was also visiting and trading pins. Any serious Disney pin collectors would consider the Pin Trading Guide book as the bible of pin trading. So it is obvious that this group of pin traders here in the Chicago area is quite well-known among pin trading activities throughout the country. It makes it even a more wonderful group to belong to.
Can't wait for the meeting next month. That would be just a week before we leave for our WDW trip. I've already promised a couple of people there that we would buy pins for them while we're at WDW. So I expect a shopping list by then. :)
