| ANNOUNCING THE TWELFTH CAPE MAY COUNTY BENEFIT MOTORCYCLE POKER RUN FOR THE TURTLES All Proceeds Benefit Turtle Conservation |
| Sunday, June 28, 2015, motorcycle riders, people riding in cars, and turtle lovers anywhere can come together in the pursuit of peace for earth's most ancient living reptile: the turtle. |
Karen and Charlie Buckley (who ride a BMW and are known as
the Turtlesinger and Turtletoter) are sponsoring this ninth
benefit motorcycle "stop and go" event during diamondback
terrapin nesting season so that motorcyclists can help the
turtles cross the roads in order to save them and raise
awareness of these and other Cape May County turtles. Other
turtles the riders have seen during the drive (maps will be
provided) are snapping turtles, box turtles, mud turtles,
red-bellied turtles, and more. The event will feature a poker run,
with turtle tokens to pick up at each stop!
