Sorry - I had posted the info but just got another message that they are closed to new people attending. They moved because people were selling pins instead of trading.
She contacted me again and gave me this info:
there is a group that meet 2nd and 4th saturdays of each month 12noon -- 3pm
on 535 & vineland across from win dixi the place i think is called hidden valley moble park their next meet is febuary 26th
Hi! I am new here. As a co-founder of the group mentioned above, I wanted to add a bit about our pin meets...
We do meet the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month. We use the clubhouse at Hidden Valley Mobile Home Park off S. Apopka Vineland Rd, just about 1.4 miles from the intersection on 535 that turns left towards Downtown Disney and right into the Crossroads Shopping Center. You can map it using the following address: 8950 Polynesian Ln., Orlando, FL; however, you'll have to drive passed the first entrance to the community that the directions will take you to and take the 2nd entrance at Hidden Village Blvd. instead. (Hidden Village Blvd. can be taken until it loops around and ends at Polynesian Ln. with the clubhouse in full view. Please park behind the building, though!)
Because of the irregularity of pin trading events at WDW, we wanted to have a regular pin meet to offer our fellow pin traders who live locally and those traveling from all around the world seeking as many pin trading opportunities as possible while vacationing at WDW! We have only been meeting since the Saturday after Thanksgiving 2010, but already we have a great group of traders coming each time providing a fun and relaxed atmosphere for traders of all ages!
To the best of my knowledge, we are strictly trading during these pin meets. I felt that the prior quote insinuated that if you wish to sell pins, come to our group. PLEASE do
not come with that idea in mind...again, we are collectors with the purpose of
trading with others! I also want to mention that we have been encouraging vinylmation trading. There hasn't been much of that so far, but would love to see more in the future!
Please see our calendar below showing the pin meeting dates for the rest of the year. Hopefully we'll see some of you when you're in town! Thank you!!!
