Registrations are welcome up until 6pm tonight to be in the running to receive free giveaways and be in the draw for more than $60,000 worth or prizes to be presented on Sunday afternoon, from 2pm, at the North Beach Bowling and Recreation Club.
The festival is now in its 24th year with enthusiasm for this catch and release event as strong as ever.
