Our Toy Ride was a fantastic success due to all the wonderful people that opened their hearts for the kids! We wish

we could thank each and every one of you individually, but that of course is impossible. So, the next best thing is to do it here, THANK YOU ALL for your participation!! All of you that gave up your Sunday with your own family to make some other kids smile. We hope everyone had a good time.

We do wish to thank the sponsors that opened not only their hearts, but their wallets, and gave both money, so the

hospital can buy more fun things for the kids during the year to come, like batteries, games for the Play Station II and also the prizes for the raffle. There were so many cute stuffed animals this year, that the kids who have to be there in the future will get to pick one for themselves.

Please, if you need anything that any of them have for sale, patronize these great merchants. There will be a list of our sponsors at the end, with a link to their websites, if they have one.

Catch 21 Seafood Restaurant for the use of their parking lot where everybody met from all three locations,

and was open for us to get the much needed coffee!

The L.A.P.D. for escorting us thru downtown L.A. so we could all make the freeway as a group. The L.A. Harbor Police and Carson P.D. for meeting us at the off ramp with another escort to the hospital!

Last, but by no means, least, The Choir Boys, for their participation and all the help they gave the riders with

traffic around the ride making the ride a lot safer for all of us. They also have many rides during the year that are open to all, and all of the rides are for great causes, like kids, or families of fallen officers. There is a link on our links page to their website and calendar of rides.

Once again, thank you one and all for your support of this ride and we hope to see you next year, and bring

some of your friends, the more the merrier holiday the kids will have!

This was the meet point for all groups	We were blown away by the number of people that came!	We sold raffle tickets and Pat was calling the numbers	John hit the jackpot for the 50/50 drawing, $600, and donated half to the hospital and half to a special school in Colton	This was the grand prize, a Harley back bar. (it is upside down)
Part of the Choir Boys that came to show their love of kids	Santa Ray Reynoso helping with the raffle	The crowd was growing fast!	Everyone was bringing lots of toys	He wanted a cap gun, but they talked him into a nicer toy
Here is part of us, look in the next panel for the rest of us!	Here are some more of us, getting kind of boring?	Put the 3 pics in your head and splice them together	We didn't forget the older kids	The stack of toys grows!
Just another gratuitus shot	I should have had everyone stand in for one big picture	These Geezers came up from Oceanside	It took a while to get all the toys upstairs	Thank goodness she is healthy and came along
