Do you have a pumpkin left over from Halloween that you need to get rid of?

Take it to Chuck-A-Pumpkin at Galleria at Sunset mall in Henderson on Saturday.

The pumpkins will be thrown from catapults and a trebuchet in the parking lot of the mall. After all of the pumpkins have been chucked, they will be composted by Terra Firma Organics.

The event will also feature a bounce house for kids and face painting.

The purpose of the event is to spread awareness about the importance of recycling/composting. Hours are noon to 4 p.m. Nov. 5.

Sponsored by the Southern Nevada Christmas Tree Recycling Committee.
