It’s a phenomenal show and a special place where we still hold dear precious things and embrace values like friendship, family, love, community, and teamwork when everything else in the world may be falling apart. For the fans and many people associated with the show, it’s probably a feeling that transcends the fictional TV “Jericho” and translates to what the show brought to us in real life.$0$0Since Jericho gave us such a wonderful gift and reminded us of the many tangibles that truly matter, we have decided to celebrate it as the “family” we have become with Welcome Home to Jericho: A Charity Event (WHTJ), benefiting the Southern California Chapter of Operation Homefront, on April 24-26 at The Sportsmen’s Lodge in Studio City, California.$0$0Hosted by Jericho Rangers For Our Troops (JR4OT) on behalf of Operation Homefront, the Welcome Home fundraising event will focus on best serving our troops and their families through efforts dubbed Operation Summer Camp and Operation Back-to-School. So, while fellow fans come together to meet each other and some of the show’s cast, writers, producers, and crew, the event also will address funding for the children of deployed troops, as they and their parents have so clearly captured the hearts of Jericho cast and crew and fans worldwide.$0$0Some of the latest developments in the planning of Welcome Home to Jericho include:$0$0• TV and film star Esai Morales (Major Beck) has confirmed plans to appear at the charity event, barring any scheduling conflicts, to show support for the troops and to promote his new show “Caprica,” whose pilot is scheduled to debut on April 21.$0$0He will be joined by actress April Parker-Jones (Darcy Hawkins), Jericho writer/producer Matt Federman, on-set dresser Mike Loomer, and on-set prop master Erik Kieltyka (also affectionately known as “Dr. Booty”). ShaunOMac of TV Talk on BlogTalkRadio also will be on hand to cover the event as part of his show.$0$0Event organizers will provide further details on guest appearances as confirmations are received.$0$0• Musical group Five for Fighting, whose music graced Jericho episodes and whose commitment to troop efforts is well-established, has agreed to donate CDs and other signed paraphernalia as auction auctions to benefit Operation Homefront.$0$0• Registration for the event and details of the weekend, including a Bailey’s Welcome Party, a “Stimi” Wedding Reception, and a Green Family Brunch, can be found at www.welcomehometojericho.com.
