MORE CROTON MEMORIES 2012: GIRL SCOUTS THEN AND NOW

Welcome to EverythingCroton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON. 

MORE CROTON MEMORIES 2012: GIRL SCOUTS THEN AND NOW

The latest edition of The Gazette (March 8 – 14, 2012) features a page 4 article entitled “Girl Scouts to mark centennial” on March 15^th at the Doubletree Hotel in Tarrytown. Famous former girl scouts will make an appearance, including Vanessa Williams among others. It goes without saying that we think a lot of the Girl Scouts. The organization maintains great core values that are as important and relevant today as they were yesterday. 

All this reminded us of a newspaper clipping we spotted in the archives of The Croton-on-Hudson Historical Society; it’s dated February 20, 1958 and comes from the Croton Cortlandt News. Click on the photo.
