It’s one of the most beloved events of the year in Paris, the Johnny Stallings Memorial: Great Paris Turtle Float, featuring 5,000 green rubber turtles floating downstream to raise money for the Girls & Boys Club of Paris.
Set for June 7 at the Love Civic Center, adopted turtles are released into the canal filled with water and the first turtle across the finish lines wins $3,000, second place receives $2,00 and third place gets $1,000.
After the turtle race, there will be a bounce house, face painting, hot dogs and more, a great family-friendly event that supports the Boys & Girls Club of Paris.
Turtles are $10 per head or $100 a herd (11 turtles).
