Carson Valley Clays Gun Club officers and board members would like to thank its membership and the Carson Valley community for the generosity, tremendous support and participation during the Super Bowl benefit shoot for Jerad Lees on Jan. 31 at Carson Valley Clays Gun Club on China Spring Road.
Lees, who was diagnosed with leukemia several months ago, has undergone chemotherapy and is waiting for a bone marrow transplant. Lees was an employee of Sunshine Construction but has been unable to work during his treatments.
