Village of Croton-on-Hudson officials on January 10, 2024, held a public ceremony to unveil a new street sign at the intersection of Old Post Road North and Grand Street, proclaiming a portion of Grand Street as Dr. Greg Schmidt Way in honor of former Village Mayor Dr. Greg Schmidt. The ceremony was followed by a reception in the Georgianna Grant Room of the Stanley H. Kellerhouse Municipal Building. A proclamation honoring Dr. Schmidt’s achievements and service to the Village was presented at that same day’s Board of Trustees meeting. Schmidt served as Croton Mayor for three terms and as Village Trustee for three terms. He is the founding father of Summerfest, Croton’s popular annual street fair.
