1944 BY SPECIAL REQUEST----A CHRISTMAS GREETING TO THE NEIGHBORS IN CROTON
Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship---in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.
A little tidbit from The Croton-on-Hudson News, December 7, 1944 which literally crumbled on the way to the scanner. We did a lot to bring it back--and think the message was worth saving...

A reader growing up here in the 60's has very fond memories of her Christmas Club account and wondered if there was anything available about the practice in the archives.
Response---not from the 60's; but there is this ad from 1935. Christmas Clubs were once all the rage.
You might try the CHS for more. https://www.crotonhistoricalsociety.org/

Response---this is the only ad we have ever been able to locate for the company; from 1952--for coincidentally, a menorah.....from American Judaism magazine. No detailed address here in Croton is shown.
Again the CHS might have more. You may also enjoy EverythingCroton: THAT TIME OF YEAR--HANUKKAH-THON 2025 AT TEMPLE ISRAEL OF NORTHERN WESTCHESTER

1956 ASBURY CHURCH PROGRAM---TO SHOW JOHN WESLEY FILM
.jpg)
A reader has very happy memories of going with her grandmother to the "Methodist Church" events and services. She was trying to remember a film she saw on John Wesley at Asbury back in the late 50's, followed by the best "Chicken a'la King" and biscuits she ever ate---and wondered if we had anything in the files as it was a very big event locally at the time....
Response: The reader probably means this---from 1956. Click on the image. The Church may have more in their own files. For today's Asbury Methodist, click here.
