Steak & Clay

An afternoon of sporting clays. An evening at the table.

October 21, 2026 2:00 – 7:30 PM The Preserve · Rhode Island

A day outdoors with New England's founders and investors, set against peak autumn color. Clays in the afternoon, a great steak dinner after, and the kind of easy conversation that makes people glad they came.

The Invitation

A crisp fall day in good company

Two moments, one golden afternoon. First, the clays: coaching for the first-timers, a little friendly competition for everyone else, the fields lit up in October color. Then, the table: a proper steak dinner where the conversation runs long and the connections stick. A day made for good company, out of the office and into the season.

The Day

Two moments, made to connect

2:00 – 5:00 PM · The Field

The Clays

An afternoon of sporting clays at The Preserve. Expert instructors get newcomers comfortable in minutes, then it moves to stations, squads, and a little honest rivalry. All equipment and coaching are provided, so every skill level belongs here.

5:30 – 7:30 PM · The Table

The Table

Boots off, fire lit, drinks poured. A chef-led steak dinner closes the day: hearty, seasonal, and unhurried, with the ease that only comes after a few hours in the field together. The room is small by design, so no one is a stranger by the last course.
