The Turtle Tots community has spoken, and the results are in! After a fun and engaging naming competition, the adorable new mascot has been officially named Shelley.

The Meaning Behind the Name
Shelley is more than just a cute face; she represents the values and principles that Turtle Tots stands for. These include joyful first experiences in the water, confidence and courage as little ones grow and learn, safety, trust, and reassurance, and fun, laughter, and family bonding every time you visit the pool.
