19th Annual Teddy Bear Drive

San Diego Harbor Police is the 2009 host agency for the 19th Annual Regional Law Enforcement Teddy Bear Drive.

This unique and compassion program was originally established by the Coronado Police Department in conjunction with the San Diego Chargers and Children's Hospital. Over the years, interest and support for this event has grown tremendously and is now a law enforcement tradition. The Teddy Bear Drive involves every police, sheriff, state, and federal law enforcement agency in San Diego County.

The Teddy Bear Drive's original focus was to provide bears to children spending time in the hospital during the holiday season with a police caravan of stuffed animals to the hospital in december. in order to spread the Joy of interacting with law enforcemant officers, once a month a diffrent law enforcement agency distributes the teddy bears to the children at the hospital. This allows for more officers to interact with the children and exposes more children to the experience of receiving a teddy bear from an officer. The teddy bears are also distributed all year long by hospital staff. One bear can make a difference in a child's eyes and can enhance the healing process. The goal is to keep Rady Children's Hospital stocked all year long with new unused teddy bear and stuffed animals.

Please note that due infection control among recipients, donated items must be new and unused with the purchase tag still attached.

Monetary donations are also accepted and enable organizers to purchase high volumes of teddy bears at a discounted price from participating vendors and businesses. If you are interested in providing a monetary donation, hosting a community collection event, or for more information, please contact:

San Diego Harbor Police Representative:
Officer Christine Sperry at Csperry@portofsandiego.org or voicemail (619)-686-6501 ext 3731:
or contact your local law enforcement agency or Rady Children's Hospital Representative":

Cal-Diego First Annual One Day Salt Water Fishing Trip

The trip was aboard the good ship Reel Fun operated by Dana Wharf Sport Fishing out of Dana Point Harbor. Sixteen PVA´ers (9 in wheelchairs) and a crew of four sailed forth at 10:00 AM to a great day of fun, food, camaraderie and fishing. It was a nice cool morning with a slight breeze plus overcast. The overcast remained with us for the entire trip, keeping the temperature to a nice 78 degrees. The galley was busy preparing breakfast burritos on the short trip out of the harbor and south to just off the coast of San Clemente. During the trip out those that were interested contributed $5.00 for a big fish jackpot and Ed Paz was kept busy recording this great event in pictorial form for posterity. Thanks Ed, we appreciate your good work.

18th Annual Sprint Trapshoot

Cal-Diego’s Eighteenth Annual Trapshoot was completely new when it took place on 6 through 8 April this year. We were at a new location, the San Diego Shotgun Sports Association’s trap range located on Marine Corps Air Station, Miramar, we were at a new hotel, Courtyard by Marriott, we used Cal-Diego’s transportation system, and we had a new twist in the course of competition. We replaced the 25 pair of handicap doubles with 50 handicap targets at the 24-yard line. That attracted 58 shooters on Friday and 63 on Saturday with 32 of them wheelers.

April 2006

"Miracles on a Mountainside" was the theme of this year´s National Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic, held April 2-9. DAV sponsored this wonderful event held every year in Snowmass, CO. The title which this event bears – Winter Sports Clinic (WSC) encompasses it all. Events offered include: downhill skiing, cross country skiing, trap shooting, archery, fencing, rock climbing, scuba diving, gondola rides, yoga, snowshoeing... the list just goes on and on. Everyone agreed, there was something for everyone. When not involved in the active sporting events there was always plenty of entertainment in the evenings with big-name stars appearing like Clay Walker. Nightly entertainment and dancing took place, provided one had enough energy left to take part.
