The Second Annual Cape May County Benefit Motorcycle Poker Run for the Turtles |
Karen & Charlie Buckley, hosts for the Turtle Run, place their BMW at the entrance to Kindle Ford with a turtle balloon to let riders know they've found the right place. |
Riders assemble into groups prior to departure. |
The first group of riders departs for the first leg of the Poker Run. |
Gloucester County's 4-H Skin and Scales Herpetology Club made it their mission to help turtles this year, and raised funds for the Turtle Run. |
Riders line up at Kindle Ford in Cape May Court House, New Jersey, to register for the Turtle Run from 11 a.m. to noon. We couldn't have done it without the help of Kate Liddle (pictured in foreground). |
Maryaurelia Newlin holds a diamondback terrapin, the kind of turtle riders saw most on the run, while John Paulsen looks on. This was one of the guest terrapins on hand from The Wetlands Institute in Stone Harbor. |
Riders arrive at Poker Stop #3 of 4 at the Seaville Tavern to pick up another turtle token to turn in for cards at Two Mile Landing, the final destination. |
A Skin and Scales Herpetology Club member presents the oversized check to Charlie Buckley, co-host of the Run for the Turtles, at an awards ceremony during the social at Two Mile Landing in Wildwood Crest. Again, join us next year for the 3rd Annual Cape May County Benefit Motorcycle Poker Run for the Turtles on Sunday, June 19, 2005! |
