Glad the pins are arriving around the country. My goal was to get them in everybody's hands by Rosemont and it looks like that will happen.

The committee appreciates your support and feedback about the 2002 Wacko Pin. Once all expenses are paid I will let you know the total amount of the donation to Southeast Block made on your behalf.

The last batch of pins went in the mail this morning.

Just got back from vacation today, and my pin was in the stack of unopened mail. It was nice to see something besides bills!lol

Seriously, the pin looks great. Many thanks to the Wacko Committee.

Is there any way to obtain older pins?


MelJB

Welcome home MelJB! Thank you for your kind words.

Each year the committee orders and ships only the number of pins actually needed. There are no spares. Therefore, the only way I know of to get a past pin is to find someone willing to part with one of theirs. You might try the Marketplace Forum.

Hope this helps.
