Origin Story:

I’ve been a turtle for about 15+ years. My husband’s friend (both deceased now) from CO procured a bunch of his friends from NY and PA during one of his trips home to NY. Another friend made up stickers for us. I put a pic of a couple of them where my profile pic goes. Their 4WD club was called the High Riders from Rochester, NY. He and myself have matching YBYSAIA state license plates on our 4Runners - his from NY, mine from PA. This was right up my alley because my Dad was a Bombardier on a B-24 in WWII. in the 15th Air Force and became a POW when they had to bail out over Hungary in 1945.. General George S. Patton liberated him. I asked him if he was a Turtle but surprisingly he had not heard of this club or remembered it. He sure had a lot of good stories to tell before he passed in 2017 at age 92. Thanks for organizing this website. People are always asking about my license plate and I tell them about the Turtles but won’t tell them what it means.. I need to buy some “official” swag and membership cards so I can start procuring my own Turtles and maybe create a pond for us to hang out in😀🐢🐢🐢. Happy Turtling! Jeanne
