A free Totem Skateboarding-Scooter, BMX and Skate Competition will then be conducted at Denman on Sunday, April 14, starting at 10am.
"The day was a huge hit [last September] with more than 40 competitors and 150 spectators at Muswellbrook," UHCS community and youth development officer Bec Eveleigh said.
"It was a pleasure to be a part of such a positive event.
"So, we're hoping to get a similar response this weekend.
"There'll be under-10, 11-14 years, 15-plus and girls' competitions - as well as a free barbecue lunch.
"On top of that, there are plenty of prizes up for grabs.
"We'll also have a return bus from Muswellbrook to Denman for anyone who is interested in attending.
"Registrations are essential for the workshops and comp, too."
