This is the third year that the Foothills Lions Club has hosted a trading event for kids but this year there are a few changes. There will be pins once again but there will be other collectibles, such as trading cards. If you are a collector this is the event for you. Do you have branded items from companies such as McDonald's or Coca Cola? What about that box of comics? All you need to do is get a table at this event and start trading! There is a new venue this year, so you will find your fellow traders at the Oilfields High School in Black Diamond on September 24th from 10am to 4pm. To book a table just email Tim at: foothillsliontim@gmail.com.
The first 50 kids through the door will receive a free collector's starter kit and the fun doesn't stop there. All kids that come in uniform, such as Scouts, Guides, Cadets, etc, and anyone who brings a donation for the Food Bank, will also receive a free gift. If you aren't currently a collector, this is the place to get your start. What interests you? Pins from countries of the World, Olympic pins or other memorabilia from the Games, game cards (Pokemon, Magic, Yugioh), Coca Cola glasses, McDonald's Happy Meal toys, comic books……the possibilities are endless. Check out the silent auction for some more collectibles. A special feature to watch for this year is the Limited Edition Pin made just for the Collector's Fest! So, get there early if you want a chance to add this special pin to your collection or, who knows, this could be the start of a new hobby for you!
