RANCHO OBI-WAN ANNOUNCES 2ND ANNUAL FUNDRAISING GALA

Petaluma, CA—June 30, 2014—Get ready for an intergalactic fun-fest as Rancho Obi-Wan launches its 2nd Annual Gala on
Saturday, September 20th. Tickets are limited so reserve space early. Save $50 by booking your passport to a galaxy not so far
away by July 13th.

It’s a party as only Rancho Obi-Wan can throw one, in the midst of the world’s largest collection of Star Wars memorabilia and
hosted by master-collector Steve Sansweet. There will be dinner, drinks and dessert all night, a trading-card bounty hunt and
other games, door prizes, a special gala T-shirt and a super swag bag filled with exclusive goodies. Get ready for surprises
galore, VIPs to mix and mingle with, Rancho’s incredible live and silent auctions, entertainment, special exhibits…and much,
much more.

The gala will raise funds for the ongoing costs of maintaining Rancho Obi-Wan including insurance, utilities, security,
professional services, maintenance, and protection, preservation and documentation of the collection. No funds are ever used
to acquire collectibles. Monies raised will also enable us to continue our mission of inspiring others through public outreach to
schools and for other charities to raise funds.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20th, 4pm – 11pm, ADMISSION DONATION: $250
$200 if completed by Sunday, July 13th 9pm PST
