 h English (en)===How Pin Trading started in the Pathfinder Club===
Pathfinder pin trading began at the first North American Division (NAD) Pathfinder Camporee at Camp Hale,Colorado in 1985. Les Pitton was the NAD Youth Director and Norm Middag was assigned as the Chairman of the Camporee Coordinating Committee. The committee decided that as part of the camporee program they would ask each club to bring something small like a pin or other small item that represented the area in which they lived. Pathfinders from different clubs could then trade items with each other as a way to encourage them to meet new people and make new friends. There were more handmade pins, buttons, plastic pins, and other items than metal pins at that first big camporee, but it quickly became apparent that the metal pins were some of the more popular trading items. There were only a few specific Pathfinder or camporee pins at Camp Hale.After that first big Pathfinder camporee, pin trading became a very popular activity at the international camporees, with divisions, unions, conferences and many individual clubs or people making metal Pathfinder pins for trading and collecting. Many of the pins became more sophisticated with danglers, blinkers, sliders, spinners, puzzles, sets, etc., adding to the fun and excitement.
