Lake Norman has gone to the turtles

Lake Norman's First Turbo Turtle Race

Saturday, May 9, 2009 | 2:00pm-5:00pm Midtown Sundries, Harborside

The Coca-Cola 600 is only a few weeks away but 10,000 cute Turbo Turtles will be racing this Saturday on Lake Norman. The event is to benefit LifeSpan & Speedway Children's Charities. Just off the shore line at Midtown Sundries 10,000 fake turtles will be dumped from boats in a closed course. The race is expected to take about 15 min but these green guys may have a mind of their own. Midtown has arranged for bands all day long starting at 2:00 pm and the race starts at 3:30.

Bring the kids and bring your friends.......for $5 you can adopt a turtle and help a great cause.
