Three turtles move into city

Published



Three turtles made downtown Baltimore their home Tuesday afternoon, settling in on Washington Boulevard and around the Harbor for a six-month visit.

The turtles ? cast resin sculptures of the University of Maryland?s terrapin mascot ? are part of the school?s 150th anniversary celebration, and are being sold and auctioned to raise money for scholarships. Baltimore became one of the first off-campus sites to host the public art exhibit, officials said.
