By now, many of you have probably taken down your Christmas decorations. Today, some Tri-Staters got rid of their Christmas trees.

The Vanderburgh County Solid Waste District held its annual Holiday Recycling Day today at the Civic Center.Volunteers say more than two-hundred Christmas trees were ground up and given away as mulch instead of being tossed into a landfill. Residents also recycled items like paper, glass, aluminum, and plastics.

The next recycling event will be January 12th at the old Walmart west from 8 am to noon.
