Twelve years ago, CTD expanded this charity program to include a car show, "Cops for Tots," which is presented in October this year. The show has resulted in a very successful day of family fun for a good cause. This year, the twelfth annual CTD "Cops for Tots" Car show will be held on Sunday, October 28, 2007, between the hours of 8 AM and 4 PM at the Los Angeles Police Academy (show opens at 7 AM). The first 500 pre-registered cars will have guaranteed spots. We ask that participants that would like to park together please arrive together.

All cars must be in place by 9:00 am to be judged by a panel of pre-selected experienced judges, over 75 trophies will be awarded!!

We will have displays from Special Weapons and Tactics Unit, Recruitment Section, Los Angeles Police Historical Society and other entities within the Department. Last year over 500 cars and trucks were in attendance, and $50,000 was raised. We have raised over $200,000 during the past thirteen years. All proceeds go to benefit children's charities, including the Los Angeles Children's Hospital BMT Unit.

Central Traffic Division would appreciate your participation in this charitable event in any way possible. If you need additional information, please contact CTD Car Show Committee members, Officers Abe Rangel and Brenan Booth at (213) 236-9254 or (213) 972-1867.
