The 2015 North Carolina Girl Scout Collector’s Show is in full swing at Trinity Reformed United Church of Christ in Conover, North Carolina. This is my first Collector’s Show, and I’m amazed at all the items on display.
Becky Byrns and the Girl Scout Council Peaks to Piedmont have put together a wonderful event with nearly 40 vendors. This year’s patch says, “An Antique Show That Is Only Girl Scout Stuff” and that description is definitely accurate!
Vintage uniforms greet arrivals outside the display hall.
Vendors include private collectors and council archives committees selling excess inventory.
Friday night was setup. Most committee members had shopping lists of what badges, uniforms, and magazines are missing from their collections.
I brought items from my own collection, including copies of my book and over 100 Council’s Own badges. (Need requirements? Check my Council’s Own website.)
Stop by and say hello. Buy a book and give me a chance to use my new credit card reader!
The show runs until 3pm today, Saturday November 14. I”ll add more photos as the day goes on.
