Earth Day Celebrations in Carlsbad April 21, 2018
Carlsbad has been celebrating Earth Month in April 2018, with a number of events for residents including a hazardous waste drop-off and a shred and recycle event. But there is still time to celebrate Earth Day, which is officially on Sunday April 22.
NOTE: All 3 events take place on Saturday April 21st
First, the CREEK TO BAY CLEAN-UP on Haymar Drive from 9 am until Noon. There is still time to sign up for the 16th Annual Creek to Bay cleanup at multiple sites around the county. In Carlsbad the event will be held along Haymar Drive (parallel to the 78 freeway - enter off El Camino Real) in north Carlsbad to pick up trash. Volunteers are requested to NOT park at the Carlsbad Golf Center at the end of the cul-de-sac.
Or join the EARTH DAY CELEBRATION at the Georgina Cole Library at 1250 Carlsbad Village Drive near the Village from 9 am until 1 pm, in conjunction with the Ecology Center.
There will be lots of fun with live music, experiential learning, environmental education, a documentary movie, crop swapping, composting workshops from 9:30 – 10:15 OR 12 – 12:45 (register in advance here), a double decker bus with an environmental education experience, community garden tours (adjacent to the library), environmental booths, and more.
Finally, take advantage of the DONATE, DON'T WASTE COLLECTION event near Fire Station #1 at 1275 Carlsbad Village Drive. This collection event is shared with Goodwill Industries and Waste Management. Instead of taking items to the landfill, you can donate small home appliances, small furniture items, electronics, housewares & home décor, sporting goods, and gently used clothing, shoes and accessories that will be reused by Goodwill programs.
