Bartlett Recycles and the Bartlett solid waste division plan to celebrate Earth Day from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday at the Solid Waste Complex, 5250 Shelter Run Lane.

The festivities will include giveaways of mulch and two yard waste carts. And Bartlett residents will be able to drop off items like old batteries, paint, motor oil and tires.

In other words, it’ll be quite a rip-roaring party.

But didn’t most people celebrate Earth Day last week?

Oh well. Maybe Bartlett residents have decided to follow the environmentalists’ credo to "make every day Earth Day."
