A REQUEST FOR A RE-POST---ABOUT THAT "POLITICAL PROTEST" AT THE CVS LOT A FEW WEEKS BACK

Many of us are not on social media, local or otherwise, but we often get to hear about it and are sometimes sent screenshots. A few weeks back, there were considerable complaints about a "political protest" in the CVS lot from both store owners and customers whose occupants, "largely composed of Peekskill residents, were disruptive to the day's business". Quick video clips were also allegedly posted online but we did not see these and preferred to wait until there was official confirmation. This is what the most recently posted police blotter has to say; click on the image. If you want to know more, you will have to do your own research. For the entire blotter. go to Police Blotter: April 5, 2026 to April 11, 2026 | Croton-on-Hudson NY

The blog gets so many requests for info--and we do our best but.....highly recommend checking in with the Croton Historical Society---the keepers of the Croton flame! Croton Historical Society

And moving along:

-----CONFIDENTIAL TO "HOW COME"?:

Response: Sorry but we cannot recommend the site in question. Of course, you must do your own due diligence.

-----A reader remembers when the county used to run "best tasting water contests"? And Croton used to win regularly. When was the last one?

The last documented Westchester County “Best Tasting Water” contest appears to have been held in 2014, when White Plains won the title. What the records show:

Westchester County’s Department of Health ran annual tap‑water taste tests through at least 2014. After that year, there are no publicly available announcements from the county, local news outlets, or municipal participants indicating that the contest continued.

Croton‑on‑Hudson’s performance--Croton‑on‑Hudson indeed had a strong run in the mid‑2000s:

2006 – Winner
2008 – Winner

These wins are consistently listed in the county’s historical results.

For further info and/or why the county stopped holding the contests, please contact them directly. Westchester County
