In honor of May the 4th (also known amongst fans as Star Wars Day), Rancho Obi-Wan is giving away 4 Initiate memberships. Initiate memberships include a quarterly email newsletter with the latest news about Rancho Obi-Wan, a Charter Year membership kit that includes a welcome letter and a patch, and a $30 discount towards a tour-level membership.
Rancho Obi-Wan (ROW) is located in Petaluma, California, and it is worth the trip if you can make it. Swank-mo-tron and I visited this past December, and we had our pictures made with Figrin D’an and the Modal Nodes and experienced standing in the corridor of the Tantive IV. And the Yoda merchandise! Steve Sansweet’s collection is probably the only one that puts my own Yoda collection to shame. I even saw the never-mass-produced talking Yoda with the pull-string that I first saw in his book Star Wars: From Concept to Screen to Collectible.
To enter to win, go to www.ranchoobiwan.org and sign up to be on the ROW mailing list. There is no obligation aside from receiving the occasional email, but fans under age 16 will require parental permission.
Or, you can purchase a membership for yourself or a friend. The $200 Knight level gives you a tour for two led by Steve Sansweet himself, and this is an experience like no other. Steve’s knowledge of Star Wars merchandise is unsurpassed, and he has such a passion for the films.
The 4 lucky fans will be randomly chosen from everyone who signs up for the ROW mailing list between now and 4:44 pm PDT May 4th. All fans worldwide are eligible if the laws in your country, state, province, or region don’t ban such random giveaways. Winners will be announced May 5th on the Rancho Obi-Wan Facebook page: www.facebook.com/RanchoObiWan , twitter @RanchoObiWan , and www.ranchoobiwan.org. May the 4th and the Force be with you!
