In the early morning hours of January 28, 2009 Lt. Curt Massey of the Culver City (California) Police Department was killed in a fiery crash by a wrong way driver on the I-10 freeway. Curt gave much of his personal time to the department and the community, working with disadvantaged kids and for years, nearly single-handedly, ran the Santa Claus Sleigh that visited the streets in town in the weeks before Christmas giving children the opportunity to give their wish list to Santa. Curt is survived by his wife and three children.

(http://www.masseyshoot.org/raffle.html) Blaster Raffle tickets are $10 each and one is included with each registration to shoot the event. THERE WILL BE ONLY 1,000 Blaster Raffle tickets printed!

Two major prizes have been added. One is an H & K handgun and the other is a check for $500. That makes for 11 prizes and a maximum of only 1.000 tickets will be sold.

The shoot is less than a week off and tickets for the Blaster Raffle, the major prizes, can be purchased on line at the website.

We had an excellent turnout, about 260 shooters. The event was taken on by two members of the Department, Officer Chris Horii and Reserve Officer Ted Yant. Over $18,000 was raised for the family.

Right now only the top three shooters in each category are listed on the site, www.masseyshoot.org but as soon as Chris and Ted catch up with their neglected families all the shooters will be listed.

There were at least three photogs covering the event. Photos will be posted on the site soon.
