Sixty-three shooters showed up to shoot the five stages in very nice weather. The match ran very smoothly and I heard many positive comments of running a nice match. There was a surprise at the start in that we were able to have a shooters prize drawing thanks to Kevin Chu, Gary Ashcavai, and James Saburomaru. Kevin donated over 60 gifts to the prize table and Gary received 10 shirts and a TechWell Magazine/Grip System from TechWear USA. The TechWear website is: www.techwareusa.com. The 19th annual Toy’s for Tots match raised $1589.00. Thanks to all who helped stage the match and thanks to all who attended. Thanks to Tanja and her brother for the photos.

Over the last eighteen years, TASC has presented a USPSA approved charity match that has produced over $150,850.00 in cash and toys for the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots campaign. It has received both local and national media coverage.

For the history of the match, TASC has been one of the largest contributors to the Santa Clara County Toys for Tots program, in the company of organizations such as Lockheed Martin and the San Jose Sharks.

Recent matches were hosted by the Richmond Hot Shots and the Richmond Rod and Gun Club, with range fees donated to NRA hunter safety programs and other causes.

Stage designs and volunteer work have also been contributed by other clubs and individuals in the Northern California Section, as well as the USMC.

In the past, shooters who participated at the match received prizes awarded by raffle. In some years, the prize table exceeded $20,000, all of it garnished through the generous donations of sponsors and individuals, many of whom are not related to the shooting sports.

The 2011 match netted approximately $1,600 for the Toys for Tots Foundation.
