History

In 1991, Ray Pusedu, Sol Raso, Joe Marcovecchio, John Johnson and others had a dream to start a golf tournament in Pueblo, Colorado, to build goodwill and stronger friendships in the community. Over the course of the next 33 years, the Italian Invitational Golf Tournament expanded from a handful of participants to a two-day event —on two courses—featuring more than 400 golfers from 11 states.
