Be a part of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition! Special episode filming in the AV this Saturday

by •

PALMDALE – Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is filming in the Antelope Valley this Saturday, Aug. 24, and producers are calling on the entire community to come out and help surprise two deserving veteran families with a new home.

The “Community Rendezvous” starts at 7:15 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 24, at Joshua Elementary School, located at 43926 2nd St E in Lancaster.

“We will be gathering so they can film us rallying and marching to knock on their door and surprise them! Come and be part of this great moment!” producers wrote in a email.

They’re hoping to gather as many local residents as possible to film the “surprise” episode this Saturday, Aug. 24.

The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition project will build two homes in the Homes 4 Veterans housing community in Palmdale. They will be building the homes in six days, working around the clock, so an ‘army’ of volunteers is needed to help from now through Aug. 30, according to the Extreme Makeover website.

Volunteers are needed for both construction and non-construction roles. Participants may sign up for a single shift or multiple days. Volunteers must be 18 years of age and older to participate in this build. To find out how you can volunteer, visit: https://www.homes4families.org/event/extreme-makeover-home-edition/

  1. I volunteered and in trying to make it back again. All the people are so cool it’s actually fun and doesn’t seem like work at all. And doing a good deed and helping create something permanent and make a difference in someone’s life and maybe be on TV just a bonus. But all the people I worked with were all awesome really great group of people

  3. CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS! Come make a difference! Homes 4 Families needs 100 volunteers at 9 am tomorrow Sunday, August 25 at the Extreme Makeover home build site for the two homes being built for local veterans. The site is located at 38100 Division Street in Palmdale. Volunteers must be at 18 yrs old. No prior registration required: just show up and be ready to work. Thank you!
