Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.
With the news that the village has cancelled another Summerfest, we've been getting a lot of requests for happier days and SUMMERFESTS PAST....here's another one....
FROM THE EVERYTHING CROTON MAILBOX: A reader was trying to locate an old "hand-drawn" map of the Upper Village from one of the first Summerfests "back in the early 80's". It has to be this one from 1981. We've sliced and diced it so you can see all the details. One of the elves is adapting a version for a new generation. Stay tuned. CLICK ON THE IMAGES BELOW. And here are some links about a few of the businesses shown:
--Robbins Pharmacy! Still here today! https://www.facebook.com/robbins.pharm.3
--Croton Deli & Pastry, a.k.a. THE GERMAN DELI; the owners retired in 2017 (the location is now JUNCTION JT'S Food Market).
And here's a post on Mike and Analee's retirement
--ELLIOTT'S; more here
--GALLAGHER'S; more here
