The Gwinnett Chamber has scheduled its annual sporting clays tournament for November 12, 2026, at Garland Mountain. The event runs from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and is designed to combine competitive shooting with business networking.
Participants will compete on a course featuring 13 stations. The layout includes rolling hills and wooded terrain with mountain views. Targets are set to mimic the flight paths of game birds, simulating a field shooting environment. The event is scheduled to take place rain or shine.
Registration and breakfast begin at 8:30 a.m., followed by a welcome and safety speech at 9:30 a.m. Shooting starts between 9:45 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. Lunch is served between 12:30 p.m. and 1:00 p.m. Awards and departure occur between 1:30 p.m. and 2:00 p.m.
The Chamber provides guns and the first round of 50 shells for each shooter. Participants may bring their own 12-gauge or 20-gauge shotgun. Shooters must supply their own eye protection. The format is open to individuals, teams, clients, and employees.
Sponsorship packages remain available for the 2026 event. A Presenting Sponsor slot is currently sold, granting one minute of promotional airtime and entry for eight shooters. One Leading Sponsor position is available for $4,000, which includes entry for six shooters. Supporting Sponsor slots cost $3,000 for a team of four and are available in multiple quantities.
Additional sponsorship tiers include a BBQ Reception Sponsor and a Breakfast Sponsor, both priced at $2,500 for two shooters. Corporate Sponsorships are available for $1,500 for two shooters. The Wild Bird Contest Sponsor slot is already sold. All sponsors receive logo placement on marketing materials and the opportunity to distribute promotional materials at shooting stations.
The tournament serves as a primary venue for Gwinnett business leaders to build relationships outside of the office. Past events in 2025, 2022, and 2021 have utilized the same format to foster collaboration among local companies.
