It's that time again.
Time to throw the gummie, throw and catch eggs, race inside sacks and stack hay bales at Taihape's Gumboot Day.
For the 31st year Taihape is the scene of the fun on March 12 at Memorial Park, starting at 10am.
Organiser Elizabeth Mortland said the two new national record holders in the New Zealand egg throwing and catching championship held at the Rural Games in Queenstown, Brent Newdick and Luke Wainui, will show their prowess on Saturday in Taihape.
The egg competition features two-person teams and the pair are up for defending their title, she said.
