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

MORE VARSITY CHEERLEADING—THEN & NOW—1958--With thanks as always to THE CROTON HISTORICAL SOCIETY:

“LES GIRLS” TACKLE TESTS ON PHYSICAL CONDITION, CORTLANDT CROTON NEWS – By Keley Volner & Kerianne Ryan – 1958 - EXCERPTED: In the last few weeks, CHHS girls have been taking part in the New York State Physical Fitness Tests…These tests are to tell what sort of physical condition we are in these days…The first test was for accuracy. The next was agility. The third was balance. The fourth was posture. The fifth was strength. The sixth was speed. The last was the treadmill”.
