PART 2, THE ED RONDTHALER SCRAPBOOKS, COURTESY OF THE CROTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY

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

For village residents, the name Edward (Ed) Rondthaler will be forever synonymous with Croton-on-Hudson. You can read more about him here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Rondthaler 

Some years ago, Rondthaler donated his scrapbooks to The Croton Historical Society. Filled with newspaper clippings, some notes and photos, they are a time capsule of village life...and as promised, Everything Croton and the trusty elves will  be sharing some of these pages with you throughout 2015. Here's Part 2 in no particular order; click on the images below, mainly from the 1960's.

  1. Wish they still had the fireman's bazaar. It was a fantastic opportunity for the community to really come together. For a taste of what it used to be like, you can always check out the annual fireman's carnival over in Montrose.
