This team event requires shooting pistols and shotguns at various targets while running through obstacles. The team did not win a medal in the overall standings, but did score quite high in one of the stages, beating out several teams from large agencies. In the P.P.C. revolver competition, Kesecker won a Silver Medal for 2nd place in the Marksman Classification. He teamed with an officer from LAPD to win a Gold Medal in the Marksman Class team event. A great by-product of the Police Summer Games is meeting and networking with other law enforcement officers throughout the state.
Some agencies pay their officers to train and compete.
Many officers compete at their own expense, and on their own time. Officer Kesecker would like to thank Officer Stinson, Officer Joseph and Chief Wight for working extra shifts to allow Kesecker to compete this year. Also thanks to the Marin Community College Police Officers' Association for donating money to Kesecker to help cover some of the costs of competing.
