South Lake Tahoe will be celebrating Earth Day on April 28 at Bijou Community Park.

Earth Day recognizes, celebrates, and promotes the region’s beauty, while educating the public about local environmental issues.

This will be an opportunity to learn about ways to counteract global climate change through recycling and composting, alternative energy, water conservation, sustainability, and reducing one’s ecological footprint.

There will be live music and dance, a kid zone, educational booths and local vendors. Food and local crafts will be available for purchase.

The free event is from 10am-3pm.
