The Litchfield University Club

I spoke to this 114 year old club at their Annual meeting in Torrington CT. It was started and run by Mr. Delmonico as an eating club, and in 1914 it started giving out scholarships to area students. Today it gives out over $65,000 per year to leading area students for college. It was interesting to hear how many people had moved to Northwest and Northern Connecticut to reinvent themselves or make a major transition in their lives. Everyone enjoys the people and the beauty of the area, which has changed very little over the years. A hidden gem of an organization!
