Sporting Clays Tournament Raises $318,000 for Families in Need

The 2026 Kids & Clays  Sporting Clays Tournament, held September 18–19 at Northbrook Sports Club in Hainesville, Illinois, raised $318,000 for the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland & Northwest Indiana (RMHC-CNI) , helping support children receiving critical medical care and the families by their side.

The two-day event brought together participants, sponsors, and community supporters for a weekend of friendly competition and fundraising. Activities included sporting clays competitions across two courses, a cookout lunch, silent auction, raffles, and a Super Final Shoot-Off. Guests also enjoyed hand-rolled cigars, gift bags, and opportunities to connect with others who share a commitment to supporting families in need.

Beyond the competition, the tournament helped raise funds for services that make a meaningful difference in the lives of families receiving critical medical care. RMHC-CNI provides warm meals, comfortable places to rest, and a welcoming community, helping families stay close to their children while navigating difficult and often uncertain times.

At Eastern, supporting organizations that strengthen our communities is an important part of our commitment to giving back. We are proud to support RMHC-CNI and recognize the participants, volunteers, sponsors, and donors whose generosity helped make this year's fundraising success possible. Their contributions help ensure families can focus on what matters most: being together when their children need them.
