Registration for the Everett Lee Yearout, Jr. Adult and Youth Fishing Tournament will be held 7:00-10:00 AM. This year the tournament theme is "There is a lot to learn from fishing because...". Essays are due at 12:00 PM. Trophies and awards will be given out in the afternoon.

The Car Show voting is done by the show participants who are completely registered by 10:30 AM. All entries will receive a dash plaque, goodie bag and category winners will receive trophies. There is no pre-registration fee. The fee is $20.00 to enter the car & motorcycle show and this is the only fee you pay to enter the festival.

Although the faces and names may have changed since we began performing in 1961, one thing hasn't - the party continues! The Castaways based in Durham, North Carolina bring an exciting sound, tremendous talent, energy, and performer versatility to your party.

With every note being played live, you can count on The Castaways to provide you with a perfect mix of Beach, Soul, and Rock-n-Roll. But, don't be surprised if we throw in a little country and top-40 too. Whether it be a wedding reception, corporate party, night club, or good old-fashioned beach party, The Castaways are your key to a great time!
