Great work Rangers, let's keep getting the word out about the comic!
East Coast Ranger Gathering (ECRG)
June 11-13, 2010
Lee has secured the hotel for the upcoming East Coast Ranger Gathering to be held in Boston, Massachusetts, June 11-13, 2010.
The Hotel is the Doubletree Club Boston Bayside
Lee has secured the unbelievable low rate of $89 per night (Thursday - Sunday). This is a FANTASTIC rate as this hotel sometimes charges upwards of $299 per night
The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle from to and from the airport as well as to downtown Boston. In addition, it is a short walk to the subway and just down the street from the JFK library for all you history buffs. The hotel is 2.5 miles from Downtown Boston and is located on the ocean.
The weekend will include but is not limited to the following:
- Redsox -- Phillies game at Historic Fenway Park
- Duck Tour which travels across the City, including a cruise on the Charles River
- Historic Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall
- Shopping and Dinning
- Freedom Trail
- Walking Tour in the Public Gardens, including a ride on the Swan Boats (made famous in Book Make Way for Ducklings)
- Visit to the USS Constitution, the oldest active commissioned warship in the US Navy
- Visits to The North End (Little Italy) and China Town
Airfares are still looking GREAT from the east coast and quite affordable from other areas too. It's going to be another EPIC event we hope many Rangers (from EVERYWHERE) can attend.
Lee has 10 rooms blocked for 6/10-13; those staying over till the 14th can still get the $89 rate. There are 10 rooms blocked for Friday and Saturday night and 5 blocked for Sunday night. If it looks like we will need more I am sure the hotel will increase the amount blocked for Sunday night. Most of us flying will not be using a car but those of you driving be advised that it costs $10/ night to park your car at the hotel.
We had a great turn out in Baltimore last year and are hoping for even more this year. For further details and updates check out the JERICHO forums on the UHD and SyFy boards or you can e mail me at gumbyfan79@aol.com.
Ranger Rendezvous (West Coast Jericho Resistance)
Fremont, CA
All over the Allied States, families are hearing about the heroism of the Jericho Rangers and the resistance that is forming. A call has gone out to all Rangers inviting them to meet at the Range Rendezvous.
Where is the Ranger Rendezvous?
The Rendezvous will be held at Coyote Hill Park in Fremont, CA.
Why is the Rendezvous an outdoor event?
Outdoor events are less expensive to the participants.
Do I have to camp?
No, there are nearby hotels you can stay at and you can join us at the park for activities.
Is there a fee for the Rendezvous?
No - the campsite has already been paid for, so there is no fee to attend the Rendezvous. There may be a small parking fee and if you want to join us for group meals there will be a modest food fee.

Jericho Season 3 - Civil War Comic
Ranger Rendezvous (West Coast Resistance)
San Francisco Bay Area
As the resistance members slowly drift into camp, they find a warm, welcoming campfire and they hear songs being sung. They know the tunes, but the words are not familiar. As they come closer they realize they are hearing songs in praise of the Jericho Rangers!
JKI is sponsoring a contest for Jericho Filk Songs (songs done to a familiar tune, but with new words). New songs about the Jericho resistance and the valiant heros of the town that has become so important to all of us.
The judges of this contest will be the resistance members who get to sing the songs.
First place will win a frosted Jericho tankard. Photos of the tankard are attached.
For more information on the Jericho Filk Contest or the Rendezvous, please e-mail gwen@az-technology.com
Note: For the fans who travel from far away, Gwen and Robert will be opening their second home (located across the bay from San Francisco) for guests the week after the Rendezvous. If you would like to spend some extra time exploring the San Francisco Bay Area, then contact us and reserve your space. This is a first come first served offer.
