Toccoa Turtle Race Saturday

The Boys and Girls Club of Toccoa-Stephens County is hosting the first Toccoa Turtle Race.

Adopt your rubber turtle and come see it race at Toccoa Falls College on July 9th.

The event runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. There will also be music, food, and festivities for children.

Each turtle costs $5 to adopt and if your turtle falls off of Toccoa Falls and crosses the finish line first, you win $2,000.

Money raised benefits the Toccoa-Stephens County Boys and Girls Club.
