We expect to recycle over 6000 gallons of paint in just three hours.

While the event will be from 9 am-noon, volunteers are needed from 7:30 am to 1 pm to help set-up and unload the vehicles, and from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm to help unload the paint donation at Global Paint’s Center. If you arrive later than 8 AM, you will not be able to volunteer, so if you want to help with this opportunity, please arrive early.

The Earth Day celebration is an event observed annually in April. The history of this day can be traced all the way back to April 22, 1970. It is a day held to demonstrate and promote environmental awareness and calls for the protection of our beautiful planet. Although it was originally foreseen as an American event, today, Earth Day is celebrated in more than 193 countries around the world each year.
