Last time I was at WDW a cast member told me that there was pin trading for kids every Friday evening at the Comtemporary.

Does anyone know if this still happens and if it does, what the hours are?
 
Yes they still have it. It's from 7pm -10pm.
They do a raffle @ 8pm.
The kids ages I believe are 6-14 only. They get in line and are given a tag with their name on it. Each child is allowed to trade 5 pins ONLY! There is a fenced off area where they have tables covered with cork boards filled with pins. I think they are random. The kids are actually trading pin for pin. and the CM's are marking the cards. Once they've traded the 5th pin. They're done.
Some "Shark spawn" can be a little pushy at times to the lowly non-pro kid trader. (hurry up, do you know that your doing? You do KNOW you have to put a pin when you pick a pin etc.) So tell them not to be discouraged and if there is a problem, let the CM know. (I have a "personal space" issue, and don't like me or my kids being "hovered over" for any reason! It's just plain rude.
My children LOVE doing this when we go!
If you have a sibling rivalry thing going, I recommend you send in siblings seperately! My guys fought for an hour how one took the pin the other was coveting etc.
HAve fun!
