Fundraiser Established for Frank Davis
Several weeks ago while working at the Virginia State Sporting Clays Championship at Brushy Mountain Club, club president Frank Davis was severely injured when he fell from a 30-foot tower on the 5-stand. The severity of his injuries means he will be rehabilitating for quite a while, and medical and family expenses continue to mount. A gofundme account has been established to benefit Frank and his family. You can learn more about what happened, read updates on his progress since the accident, and contribute if you wish at gofundme.com. www.gofundme.com/f/medical-family-school-expenses-for-frank-davis
