BY SPECIAL REQUEST, UPDATED THROUGH MID-2020, A LOOK BACK AT--AND FORWARD WITH--THE ROTARY CLUB OF CROTON ON HUDSON...

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

BY SPECIAL REQUEST, UPDATED THROUGH MID-2020, A LOOK BACK AT--AND FORWARD WITH--THE ROTARY CLUB OF CROTON ON HUDSON...  

One of the nicest things about the village is the outstanding service organizations that exemplify the best in volunteerism, service above self, and more.  

And so once again---over the next few weeks, and by special request---Everything Croton will re-acquaint you with the men and women who serve------from the Lions to the Rotary to the Knights of Columbus....(LAST WEEK, THE CROTON LIONS WERE FEATURED HERE.)

This week, it's the Rotary Club of Croton on Hudson, "an association of local business and professional leaders that provides humanitarian service and encourages high ethical standards in all professions". It also provides scholarships, assistance to the local food bank, and engages in numerous other charitable fundraisers---perhaps the most well-known of which is the annual Croton Rotary Classic Car Show.

In 2020, the club has been very busy---check out this article from the River Journal here.
