FROM THE MAILBOX, CROTON SHOE STORE AND SILVER LAKE

Click on the photos and links....

A reader has many fond memories of getting her "back-to-school" shoes and "summer PF Flyers" with her mom and brothers at "a village shoe store back in the early 60's".  She wondered if we had anything in the files....

Response: Well, there is this 1962 ad....the Croton Historical Society might have more; you should contact them directly.

A reader has fond memories of Silver Lake---and "a time when it was always hopping".... He wondered if there was anything in the files......about the swimming competitions.

Indeed there is: see the link below. The Historical Society no doubt has more:
