VERY SPECIAL VISITORS AT THE CROTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY'S EXHIBIT: PETE SEEGER & HIS WIFE TOSHI

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

The Croton Historical Society had very special guests last week: Pete Seeger and his wife, Toshi, came by to view the current society exhibit "The Masses". (Click on the photos. Mr. Seeger also signed the guest book and included a quick sketch of a banjo in the comment section! )

It goes without saying that the society was thrilled to have such honored visitors.

  2. NOT his biggest fan in later years but have to admit that he did do sterling enviro and other good work in the 50's and 60's and is an icon of his time. Also, that exhibit sure is bringing in a lot of people. Kudos to our historical society.

  3. Nice touch with the little drawing of the banjo. I'm a fan and how flattering that he and his wife came to see the exhibit.
