Players are invited to join an adult softball game which has been played for decades.

We finish no later than noon, which is when our field permit expires. Games are friendly but competitive. Season runs from Sunday, April 20 through October. Interested players should contact Jeff Rejan at jrejan@optonline.net or show up at the field.

McCarthyism and the Scarsdale Schools - A Deep Dive into the Battle of the Books (Mon. 21 Apr, 2025 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm)

SCARSDALES BATTLE OF THE BOOKS digital signJoin local history librarian Dan Glauber for this lecture on Monday April 21at 7:30 pm on the Battle of the Books. From 1949 to 1954, a group of residents calling themselves the Committee of 10, and later the Citizens Committee, waged a battle against what they saw as the infiltration of Scarsdale schools by Communists and fellow travelers. They objected to books, speakers, presenters, and even Scarsdale residents who they accused of having Communist connections. Scarsdale's "Battle of the Books," as it became known in the national news, was one of many examples of school districts that came under fire during the McCarthy era. Scarsdale's experience was notable as the only example where the McCarthyites were defeated. Dive deep on the issues and the people involved.
