ECRG 2011 - September 9-11, 2011
The East Coast Ranger Gathering (ECRG) is slated for September 9-11, 2011 in Baltimore, MD. This will be the third annual gathering of Rangers and the 2nd time in Baltimore.
The ECRG is just that, a gathering of Jericho Fans who are getting together for a social event to talk about Jericho, the comic and speculate about the eventual release of the feature film. It is not a convention or con and has never been intended for that purpose. We will not be looking for active participation from anyone who worked on the series. In time, the event may grow into something other than a social event but for now it is meant to be purely an event where people can meet, explore the location and have a good time.
