The Boys & Girls Club Golf Classic, which has run 45 consecutive years since 1972, is dedicated to John “Red” Larsen. 
Red participated in almost every tournament and was Chairman for more than half. It was common to see Red stuffing “tee-favor bags” on Sunday night or putting out sponsor signs in the morning mist. 
His love for children and his dedication to the Boys & Girls Club were rivaled only by his love for his family and the game of golf.

The Boys & Girls Club of the Lower Naugatuck Valley has been changing the lives of young people in our area for 60 years. 
With programs ranging from homework assistance to nutrition, to sports, all young people are helped to reach their full potential, but especially those from disadvantaged circumstances. 
Proceeds will help provide services regardless of a family’s ability to pay.
