History of Race Discussion Group
Thursday, April 22 – 7 to 8:30 p.m.
Via Zoom
 
Join the Diversity & Inclusion Committee for their discussion group. As a prelude to future discussions on the complex topics of systemic racism, we will be going back in time to origins of our systems - the how and the why. After watching a video on History of Race together, we will discuss issues raised in the film and how our history and the founding principles of the United States ultimately created a platform for systemic racism which impacts us all today. RSVP for zoom information by April 20, 2021 to COH.DI.Committee@gmail.com. Visit https://www.crotononhudson-ny.gov/diversity-and-inclusion-committee/pages/discussion-group for the recommended readings and videos in advance of the discussion.
 
Arboretum Spring Walk

Croton Arboretum (end of Fox Lane)
 
Join the Jane E. Lytle Memorial Arboretum for a walk in the Spring woods! If you have ever thought "I wonder what kind of a tree that is?" or whether the tree in your yard is a native or an invasive species, this is the stroll for you. Craig Stevens, a certified arborist, will be your guide. Gather at the end of Fox Lane and walk in to the Arboretum. Your feet will be dry on the boardwalk as you admire the stream and wetland filled with ferns and skunkcabbage!
