Steve: "Still to come on News Channel 4 at 6, a local web site for the Morris Island Lighthouse is getting a lot of attention."
Kellen: "We'll tell you why, plus show you how to log on and see it, but first Monica has another look at weather."
Steve: "Creators of a local web site are leading the pack in voting for the Best Community Web Site Award. The site is run by Save The Light Incorporated, a non-profit group set up to save the Morris Island Lighthouse. The site has received over 1,500 votes so far, putting it in contention to be a national finalist. Now, if you you want to check out or vote for the web site, the address is www.savethelight.org. The site has already won over 200 web site awards."
Kellen: "Straight ahead on News Channel 4, if you have internet access, there's a web site you have to check out.
We'll tell you about this local site that's gained plenty of national attention."
