Page 42 • PAX CENTURION • September/October 2013 617-989-BPPA (2772) Shooting for a Cure Fundraiser: Right on target By P.O. Jay Moccia Photos by P.O. Debra Fisher T he BPD Range once again hosted the annual “Shooting for a Cure” pistol competition at its Moon Island facility. Shooters from all over Massachusetts and Rhode Island, representing various Federal, State and Local Law Enforcement agencies gathered for bragging rights and a great cause: Cops for Kids with Cancer (CFKWC). To date the shoot has generated about $50,000 for the charity, through entry fees, raffles, T-shirt sales, and donations. Although theAugust sun was hot, the competitors remained calm and cool as they worked their way through various courses of fire. From a three gun obstacle course, to Jedburgh Targets’ state of the art pop-ups, the LawMen were challenged to the limits of their abili- ties. When the (gun)smoke cleared, this year’s Top Shot Cop was Joe Niemczyk of the Blackstone, MA Police Dept. He was challenged by 2 nd & 3 rd place finishers Joe Racine of the Mass. State Police, and John Hay of the Federal Bureau of Prisons. But, as always, the big winner was CFKWC. Range Staff & Superintendent William Gross C arole l und r.e.
