LA JOLLA — What do you do with your old computers, cell phones and electronics? Whatever you do, don’t throw them in the trash. Instead, head out to the La Jolla Recreation Center on 615 Prospect St. on Sunday, Oct. 17 and recycle them for free. Afterward, take a trip to the It’s A Green Day Festival at the Ellen Browning Scripps Park. The event will offer educational workshops for children and adults about fuel efficiency, solar power, recycling and green home products, an eco-parade, dancing, live music and other activities. “The event will be an “earth-friendly experience aimed at training children while they’re young about how to live a green life,” said festival organizer Alex Rivera. “We’ll have a company called Revolution Landscape that will have kids make their own seed balls. When they plant them at home, they’ll have their own California native wildflowers within a few months.” In addition, tthere will be a Panamanian marching band that children can join ranks with, an arts and crafts area and live musical performances from East of Echo, Subliminal Trip and many other blues and reggae bands. The festival will run from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. at 1142 Coast Boulevard. For more information, visit www.thegreenexpo.net.
