The name has changed. The tradition continues.

The tradition started on September 26, 1978. On that date 138 golfers, 24 tennis players, and 8 bocce players gathered at The Farms Country Club in Wallingford, Connecticut, for the first ever Bozzuto's Sports Charity Classic. The event was the result of the commitment of one man, Adam J. Bozzuto, the founder, chairman and CEO of Bozzuto's Inc. It was his dream to create an annual event of recreation and camaraderie that would also help raise money for those in need.

The dream came true. Today the event, renamed the Adam J. Bozzuto Memorial Charity Classic in honor of Adam, is regarded by many as the gold standard for industry fundraising events.

Come experience the tradition. Enjoy a day of golf and good company on some of central Connecticut's finest golf courses, followed by an exquisite dinner at the Aqua Turf Country Club featuring numerous raffles, door prizes and giveaways. You'll discover there's no better way to spend a day.

This year's event takes place on Monday, September 17, 2007, and includes golf at Southington Country Club, The Farms Country Club and The Country Club of Waterbury. As with our past events, every dollar raised by the event is donated to charity
