WDW Cast Member Joining in the Fun!

[Captain_Fartbeard]

 Howdy! I joined the DCP (Disney College Program) in January and recently got sucked into pin trading. It's quickly become an obsession, which led to me finding this beautiful place! I look forward to trading and collecting with everyone here. I currently reside near Orlando, Florida (obviously) and love the pin community I've found both in person and online. Trading at the parks has become a favorite pastime, especially with Cast Member lanyards coming back!

 

  I love cute animals (cats mostly, but also Meeko, Disney Dogs, Robin Hood, Turning Red, and Zootopia) My primary collections are Simba and Figaro, but I'm also chasing Oliver & Company and Aristocats as well! Funny/humor pins are a big ISO as well. Don't have many super rare pins yet but looking to add to my vintage/rare collection soon. It's great to meet everyone!

Figaro is the cutest, ain't he? It's funny, if you'd asked me before I started training who my favorite Disney character was, he wouldn't crack the top 5. But now I can't get enough of him lol

Thanks! It's been great so far! Working in food service can suck sometimes (pity whoever has to clean the soft serve machines at night) but the views are great, the people are great, and going to the parks has been really fun.

 

 I agree cast member pin trading coming back has been really fun. (I don't think I ever got to do it before as a guest) It's what really kick-started this hobby, it went from something fun on the side to something I do on most of my days off lol. 100% worth it though!
