This week's Our History, Our Memories photo gallery looks back at the best designs at Old Bar Beach between 2002 and 2004.
Every sea creature imaginable was turned into a creative piece, with seaweed often used for a stylistic finish. Families would take part in competitions organised by Old Bar Lions Club and sponsored by the Manning River Times.
We have been delving into the Times' photo archives and while every picture tells a story, sometimes the background to that story is lost.
Do you recognise a face, a venue, an occasion?
Soak up the nostalgia. Feedback and shared memories are most welcome. Photos can be purchased from the Manning River Times office.
Visit our website at 6pm every Wednesday to view the latest gallery in the series.
