Pearl Beach Progress Association will hold a Family Fun Day on January 26 from 8.30am-noon with the support of Central Coast Council.
The Australia Day fun has become a tradition in the small coastal village.
Visitors come from far and wide to share in the enjoyment and the population almost doubles for the day.
Children’s races on the beach include age divisions as well as novelty events such as sack and three-legged races and a thong-throwing competition.
A limited number of spots will be available for the sand-modelling event.
The Rock-to-Rock run is always popular, when competitors will run twice the length of the beach.
Registration starts at 8.30am, with the Rock-to-Rock scheduled for a 10am start.
Be sure to bring a hat and sunscreen.
A barbecue sponsored by ACCOM Real Estate will be held with all proceeds going to the Mingaletta organisation in Umina.
This year there will also be lamingtons and watermelon slices for sale.
With the recent closure of the café and restaurant due to fire, the locals have arranged for a coffee van to be present.
Unless called away on emergencies, the local Rural Fire Brigade will bring one of its fire trucks to the beach for children to see.
