The contest runs annually starting with a promotion at the Shooting, Hunting, and Outdoor Trade Show (SHOT) in January.

The Houses receive all proceeds.
“The annual sweepstakes provides vital funds to Ronald McDonald Houses to help critically ill children and their families,” said Bill Keyser, president of the Kids & Clays Foundation. “It is only possible with the great support of national sponsors who are key to the sweeps success. I would encourage all who want to make a difference to participate in the sweepstakes.”
