Mt. Diablo Recycling Hosts Annual Family Earth Day Celebration Saturday April 23

by ECT

Earth Day is not just a once a year holiday for Mt. Diablo Recycling (MDR), a division of recycling and resource recovery company Garaventa Enterprises, though it does highlight a reason to celebrate with the Contra Costa County community. Mt. Diablo Recycling 4th Annual Family Earth Day Celebration on April 23 offers free family fun and activities for families to do together to help the earth.

This year, the Family Earth Day Celebration will begin at 10 am and run until 12 noon. It will take place, for free, at the Mt. Diablo Recycling facility located at 1300 Loveridge Road in Pittsburg, Calif.

The event includes a tour of the Mt. Diablo Recycling 90,000-square-foot recycling facility where participants will learn about the “Big Blue” and “Big Wall-e” recycling machines, an interactive education lesson about the 5 R’s (Reduce-Reuse-Recycle-Respect-Recover), recycling games, and a take home crafts. Families can also take pictures with the Recycling Guy and with recycling trucks.

“There is no better time than Earth Day to share our passion for recycling and recovery with the entire community,” said Joseph Garaventa, MDR’s Chief Executive Officer. “Participating in our Earth Day Celebration is a great way for families to explore the many ways they can make a real difference in the quality of our environment.”
