Anchor Intro: There are a number of Earth Day events planned at Lake Tahoe and in Reno in the coming weeks. In tonight's Lake Tahoe Report, Shelly Purdy takes a look at the history behind Earth Day and what is planned at this year's events. TAKE PKG ((Track 1)) This year marks the 35th anniversary of Earth Day in the United States. And, this year, Earth Day celebrations will be held on both sides of Lake Tahoe and in Reno. The South Shore event will be held this Saturday at the new Village at Heavenly. The event drew some 3 to 4-thousand people last year, and organizers are expecting an even bigger crowd this year. ((sot @ 11:38 Jessica Schwing, Earth Day Planning Committee Chair)) "We will have educational booths both on the upper and lower level. We'll also have a kids area with a lot of neat activities for kids." ((Track 2)) There will be bands, entertainment and lots of food. But the focus of the event will be on education. ((sot @ 12:08)) "Of course, the most important part of Earth Day is we'll have all the local agencies here and non-profits out here educating us with ways to protect the Lake Tahoe environment." ((sot @ 14:44)) "What I'm hoping people come away with is an idea of maybe it's just one or two small things that they can do to take care of the environment that they live in."
