We're celebrating turtles and tortoises ...

so, don't poke along, please hurry to join us.

We're having a special Second Saturday Sidewalk Storytelling this coming Saturday, September 10.

Elder Barbara Drake (Tongva) will share traditional stories about turtles and tortoises, which are important to Native American cultures throughout Southern California.

A representative from the California Turtle & Tortoise Club and a desert tortoise also will be on hand to meet and greet you.

Come learn all about California's state reptile and other turtles and tortoises.

The club is looking for homes interested in adopting rescued desert tortoises and other turtle and tortoise rescues.

Could that be you?

Come for an afternoon of free family fun.

Enjoy crafts for kids!
