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.
Yes, it's the busiest time of the year for Holy Name of Mary's God Squad. There's the annual Appeal Letter ---and then of course, their annual food tent at the 2018 Harry Chapin Memorial Run Against Hunger on Sunday 10/21.
(Click on the photos to see the God Squad tents in 2017, 2016, and 2015.)
There's also the annual Fall Clean-Up for Parish Senior Citizens in the next few weeks. (Click here to see photos from the 2015 clean-up and click here for photos from the 2014 fall clean-up).
It's all hard work but it's also about real community service...in today's world, it's so refreshing to meet young people who do more than just talk.
And finally the capstone for the year--the God Squad 2018 Annual Sleep-out will be on Dec. 9th. This event raises money and more for CHOP in Peekskill.
(See photos from the 2017 sleep-out here and the Knights of Columbus 2017 follow-up post sleep-out breakfast here and from 2016 here.)

Great buncha kids. This program has been producing them for years. We need more of this sort of thing and not what passes for activism these days.
