COMMEMORATING AMERICA'S ENTRY INTO WORLD WAR ONE

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.

Noting the 100th anniversary of the U.S.A. entering World War One a.k.a. THE GREAT WAR (APRIL 6, 1917)--French Alpha Jets will fly in the area TODAY 3/25 to commemorate this event--they will be conducting a flyover from the north down the Hudson River to just south of the Statue of Liberty with trailing red, white, and blue smoke. They will make a second pass from south to north back up the river in Manhattan--approximately noon and weather permitting of course.
