Every year the San Diego Turtle and Tortoise Society rescues and adopts-out hundreds of water turtles, land turtles, and tortoises. 
The society is an all volunteer organization made up of a diverse group of people interested in protecting, caring for, and learning more about these wonderful creatures.  Here is a current list of rescues.
MONTHLY MEETINGS   
Norris leads meeting
Our monthly Balboa Park meetings are free and open to the public.  Our guests include noted turtle care specialists, veterinarians, and conservationists.  Meetings are typically held at 7pm on the 2nd Friday of each month. With coffee and snacks, it is a great chance to meet other turtle and tortoise owners.
JULY BALBOA PARK SHOW  

Since its inception, the Society has annually exhibited turtles and tortoises to encourage public education and awareness.  Rare and exotic species are featured as well as a large number of turtles and tortoises ready for adoption.  The Annual Balboa Park Show is free and open to the public - July 2013.
