Today, collectors from across the United States and around the globe will be in Cleveland, Georgia, on Friday, May 3, at BabyLand General Hospital. It is the 2024 Spring Collectors Event at the home of the Cabbage Patch Kids® and Licensed Patch Doctors and Nurses. It has been almost five years since such an event has been held due to COVID.
Margaret McLean, Director of Corporate Communications for BabyLand said the 2020 Spring Event was cancelled due to COVID. It has been almost 5 years since the collectors gathered together at BabyLand General.
McLean said the event began in 1987. McLean says “Carrying their Cabbage Patch Kids or Little People, many of our members come a week early or stay longer to visit their favorite places, to find new ones, or to learn more about the historical Southern roots of their newest family member.”
The Cabbage Patch has always delighted collector club members with a very special handmade Little People® baby available exclusively for registered event attendees. Because of all the excitement, the Cabbage Patch began delivering a second baby that affectionately became known as the “Side Kick,” offered first to event attendees, collector club members, and then the general public.
McLean said she is hopeful the Azaleas will be in full Bloom — for all who attend.”
