REMEMBERING THE BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG JULY 1-3, 1863--FOR OUR HISTORY BUFFS

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

Many thanks to Croton's own TOM FARANDA's FOLLY for this fabulous post on the upcoming anniversary of The Battle of Gettysburg.  While Croton's dedicated Civil War buffs needed no reminders, Faranda's post is still required reading---now more than ever---Check it out here.
