Event Information
About This Event
The Hewitt Run for a Cause is the evolution of the Hewitt Memorial Golf Tournament which supported The Jimmy Fund for over 20 years in memory of Howard Hewitt. Though Howard enjoyed golfing with his sons; many may not realize that he was an avid runner in high school – making this transition even more appropriate in his honor. The whole Hewitt Family, including Howard’s wife Patricia, 8 sons and daughters and 19 grandchildren will all be present on race day – Father’s Day – to raise money in his memory for charities benefiting those in the Meriden community.
