History of the Annual Petit Family Foundation Golf Tournament
The first tournament was held in October 2007. From the beginning, Bernie Lidestri has chaired the tournaments. The first eighteen tournaments raised $1.5 million, which has been used for grants to benefit the residents of Connecticut and around the country.
