Ryan’s Christmas Lights 2005 has had quite a bit of publicity this month: From the Messenger and Advertiser Newspapers, to FIVEaa Talkback Radio and Seven News. I would like to thank everybody involved in organising this publicity – from the staff of the media companies to the members of the community.
Support from the community is wonderful
Less than a week away until December 1st now! I have been lucky enough to get the Messenger News Review Team interviewing me about the lights display. Pictures of the 98% complete display are now available for viewing on the 2005 Photo Gallery.
Also thank you Maz for your generous $50 donation!
Computerisation
Merry Christmas… well not yet anyway! I’ve decided to turn part of my display into being computerised this year, and plan to do more next year. For Computer Specs, check out the Computer page of the website. The Hardware itself will cost $110, and it will operate though a printer cable (LPT port) and 5v power (via internal hard drive power cable).
Dates Confirmed
Hi there, the dates of Ryan’s Christmas Lights 2005 have been confirmed. The display will be running from the 1st to the 31st of December, 8:30pm to 10:30pm. The display may be cancelled if the weather is forecasted to rain. On other news, I have just found out that someone may be helping with money costs to run and improve this display – up to $300. This will go a long way, thank you!
