Archive Party V: Call for Sponsors!

With the fifth chapter of the Archive Party Saga coming to Celebration Anaheim 2020 (Thursday August 27th at Morton's Steakhouse), the time has come to recruit sponsors! This is the official call to the collecting community to be a major part of something fun that will support a very good cause. All proceeds beyond the cost of the event will be donated to aid shelter animals in need.

77 Standard Sponsorship spots will be open. A limited number of tickets will be available for the event, so don't miss out on your chance to guarantee yourself entry and the opportunity to significantly contribute to one of Celebration's can't-miss events.

All Archive Party V Sponsors...

Hereby promise to donate a sum of $400.00 to the "Archive Party Fund," with the understanding that none of the money will be returned, but that sponsors are allowed one additional guest and will receive all sponsor/standard attendee exclusive give-away items created from the Fund.*

The first 77 sponsors that submit donations will secure their sponsorship.

Send an email to swca.party@gmail.com for payment instructions and additional details if interested. Please DO NOT send PayPal payments to this email address. Thanks!

*Sponsors were allowed to split the cost of sponsorship for previous parties. This option will be available again, with the understanding that joint sponsorships can be split by a maximum of two entrees to the event. Joint sponsors will forgo their guest spots and determine among themselves how the exclusives will be distributed.

Thanks so much for your support,

Steve & Skye
