---Lots of chatter about the online minutes revealing a not so inclusive village DEI/I.D,E.A. Committee, possible first amendment issues, the co-optation of Summerfest into 'PRIDE-fest", PERIOD EQUITY, etc. It's all very easy to find and for some more than others, not that surprising. Hate has no home here.....unless....
---Lots of chatter about that failed gonorrhea vaccine but many of us believe that Alex Berenson provides the most cogent---and reliable---information--- see more at A gonorrhea vaccine fails - and reveals a much bigger problem with the studies health bureaucrats use to push flu and Covid jabs but of course, do your own diligence.
---Bots, bots, bots....everywhere a facebook bot....TDS....Erika's court clothing critiques....ghoulish Graham commentary, lots of nonsense unworthy of repetition---nothing to be done......
---Lots of chatter across multiple village, town, pages about Matters Coffee here in Croton--"coffee without the nonsense"---EverythingCroton: MATTERS COFFEE IN CROTON---PEEKSKILL FOODIE--LOOK WHAT POPPED UP ON FACEBOOK

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.
Back in May of 2019, the local birding world was fairly excited about a young Eastern Meadowlark that was spotted at The Croton Duck Pond. (Meadowlarks aren't exactly a common occurrence.)
Fast forward to 2021---they were back
