The erection team are already hard at work and many thanks to them and all the people who've been volunteering to help even if it's just for an hour or two it all helps!  and I know they're very grateful for all assistance.

But we're asking for even more volunteers to help with Switch On night as well and you don't have to be any good at lifting things above your head or wiring things up.  read more »

Christmas Lights 2008 - disassembled

Enormous thanks are due to all the Lights Elves who turned out bright and early on a very cold Saturday morning to help with the taking down and storage of all the lights for another year.

After a long day, the last of the lights was successfully removed and stored ready for next year.

Angarrack Christmas Lights Switch On - Saturday 6th December 2008

After all the hard work in designing, creating, upgrading, building, configuring and funding the lights the switch on day finally arrived and the weather was kind - lovely clear skies - though that did make it rather chilly.

Many thanks to all in the village who helped make it all possible - including those who put up with being disrupted as the team worked so hard to setup all the lights and of course everyone from the hardworking Lights Committee.  read more »
