A RECORD YEAR!

11th ANNUAL DIXIE ROOFING CLAYS FOR CHILDREN SPORTING CLAYS TOURNAMENT
NETS $137,000 FOR LOCAL CHILDREN’S CENTERS

On Thursday, October 1 and Friday, October 2, 2026, District Attorney General Jared Effler and staff, in partnership with the Children’s Centers of the 8th Judicial District, hosted the Eleventh Annual Dixie Roofing Clays for Children Sporting Clays Tournament at Iron Mountain Sporting Clays in Kodak, Tennessee. The purpose of the event was to raise money to support the Children’s Centers of the 8th Judicial District, comprised of Campbell, Claiborne, Fentress, Scott, and Union counties. With 159 teams and 592 individual shooters participating, this year’s tournament was one of the largest such events in the nation!

The Children’s Centers of the 8th Judicial District serve hundreds of children each year and work closely with local law enforcement and the District Attorney General’s Office. They assist with medical examinations, forensic interviews, counseling, and court proceedings. The services the centers provide help to ensure that justice is served as well as help victims navigate the court system and receive the resources they need.

District Attorney General Jared Effler stated: “It takes an army of people to engineer an event of this magnitude. From the bottom of my heart, I want to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who made the 11th Annual Dixie Roofing Clays for Children Sporting Clays Tournament a tremendous success!”

The District Attorney General’s Office is pleased to announce that this year’s Dixie Roofing Clays for Children Sporting Clays Tournament netted $137,000! This money will ensure that our Children’s Centers can continue their worthy mission of serving abused and neglected children. We are already making plans for next year’s event and hope everyone can join us.
