Okay, question from a cheer mom here...
Our gym is offering pins for trading this year. Level 5 teams are going to NCA in Dallas, Level 1-4 teams are going to UCA in Orlando. The pins are pricey, $5.00 each, so I'm wondering if it is really worth it to purchase these for my CP to trade. If you look at the Varsity website, they play the pin trading off as the next best thing since sliced bread, but I want to know the opinions of those that have actually been there.
If there are going to plenty of chances for her to trade, I'm fine with spending the money to get her some pins to trade with others. But, if it's really not that big of a deal there or not many people participate, I'm not sure I want to spend that kind of money right now. If there is good participation in pin trading, what is a good number of pins to have on hand to trade? I'm completely clueless. We have to order by Thursday, so any input is appreciated.
