MORE CROTON MEMORIES: A PINEWOOD DERBY 1973

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

We couldn’t resist when we came across this newspaper clipping from 1973 on the Croton Cub Scout Pack 213 Pinewood Derby—and just had to post it. (Courtesy of the Croton on Hudson Historical Society of course.) Click on the photo—recognize any names there :) 

You can read more about the event, held at Holy Name of Mary, by clicking on the link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/22283683@N07/7161143416/in/photostream/

  2. I missed this one. I personally prefer the soapbox racers we used to build when we were kids!
