July 24, 2025We’re excited to announce that Clays for Causes, hosted by NASCAR Cup Series Driver Erik Jones and the Erik Jones Foundation, is back for its third year! Mark your calendars for Friday, June 6, 2025, and join us at the stunning private hunting club, The Huntsman, in Dryden, Michigan.
This special event is more than just a day outdoors—it’s a chance to make a difference.
A Tradition Rooted in Michigan
Erik launched Clays for Causes as a fresh take on charity events—one that reflects his Michigan roots and passion for the outdoors. Rather than another golf tournament, Erik wanted something different… something personal. So he created a clay shoot that’s both fun and competitive. After hosting it in North Carolina for the first two years, the event will come to Jones’s home state for the first time.
Here’s what Erik had to say about it:
“I started Clays for Causes because I wanted to do something different—something that felt like me. It’s been really cool to see it grow into such a fun event that also supports the causes I care about. We get to spend a day outside, have some fun, and raise money for the foundation. With the Comcast Community Champion Award this year, it makes it all feel even more special. I’m really looking forward to getting everyone together again.”
— Erik Jones
