I don't want to step on the simple swap that is now going on at the DIS board, but it's time for my swap too. So if you are doing that one, great, hope you can join us in this one too. I wanted to avoid the Easter, Passover holidays so the swap won't get labeled as a religious swap.

In the past I have split the swap into adults and children. I group everyone under 12 as a child, but if you make a special request I will put your child into the adult swap. I think it's more fun for the kids to get a pin and a letter from another child.

If you have never done the swap here are the rules.

Everyone who wants to take part will send their information to me. I will compile the list and through a very scientific method I will assign everyone a swap person to send a pin to. ( I cut up a copy of the list and put all the names in a bag. The I draw names and write them next to the names on the original list) .........scientific huh????

You will send me your name and information by April 17th. I will then do the assignment and get the letters out to everyone by April 20th.

Everyone will try and see if they have something the person wants by checking pin pics and mail the pins out within the same time frame of April 27th.

If you don't have something the person wants, don't feel that you can't take part, you can send any pin you have, because that pin can be then used by the person to trade for a pin they really want. Every Disney pin is someone's Holy Grail.

This is the information I need. Please make sure you send this information to me othewise you will be getting a letter from me asking for more information.
Please send the information to me via e-mail, sometimes I don't get my PM's.

NAME
ADDRESS
E-MAIL ADDRESS
PIN PICS NAME
BOARD NAME (Please specify what boards you read)
ADULT or if CHILD (age of child)

When I send you the name of the person you will send a pin to I will let you know all the specific rules, like... packages should be insured, pin must be a Disney copyright, etc....

this is always alot of fun so let's all have some fun. Peggie

Peggie,

Great. I'm going to be in Orlando during those dates but I'm sure the person who's name I get will wait an extra day or two for a "fresh" pin.

Has anyone else gotten their name yet? I received a pin in the mail today, but I'm yet to receive my person's name. Help!

All the letters went out on Monday. If you have not received a name yet let me know and I will re-send the letter to you. Look for your pin swap pin to come soon. Peggie
