The Light Up Emerald page has been finished for the time being with an interactive google map showing where Emerald Street is, and who lights up on this street.

All that is left now is to wait until December, and (hopefully) see most of the street lit up with Christmas lights. You will find the Light Up Emerald page in the navigation bar above.

I looks as though the origial budget for this year's display upgrades is not sufficient enough! It appears that the original budgeted $800 is only half of the amount that will be needed. $750 has already been spent on this year's display, and another 1800 LED lights need to be purchased (LEDs average at $35 per 100 LED globes). This means that the new 'target', although not budgeted, is $1500. $750 is required to be raised by October. $100 should be no problem, and one of my sponsors may be able to provide up to $150. This leaves $500 left to raise...

I hope it can be done!

It was not long ago that a new website design was unveiled... but now there have been a few more changes.

For starters, all the photo galleries in the navigation bar have been moved into a 'popup' menu that is activated by hovering over the photo galleries link. The galleries also now have picture thumbnails instead of the drop down combo box check them out!!

Finally a quick facts page has been created with... you guessed it... quick facts!

There will also (hopefully) be a webcam online around November this year - however the page is up already!

Extra, Extra! Read all about it...
Ryan's Christmas Lights can now be accessed via RyansChristmasLights.com

It gives me great pleasure to unleash the new revamped website, with an overall improved interface. I called on some outside assistance this time around to get a better website up.
Thank you Clindhartsen for sprucing up this website!!
