Activities
The North Salem Improvement Society is a not-for -profit organization founded in 1931 whose main purpose is to make our town " a more beautiful place in which to live…" The Improvement Society was responsible for opening the first library in town, purchasing our town's first fire truck, establishing the town's historical society, refurbishing Delancey Hall as the town hall, building bridle paths and organizing the first recycling programs.
Our largest event is Christmas Eve where Santa arrives, not atop a reindeer-pulled sleigh, but atop one of the Croton Falls Fire Department's finest red engines. It is truly a sight that delights children of all ages. At the tree, located on Titicus Road where Baxter Road meets it, we serve hot cider, cocoa, chocolate chip cookies, and special gingerbread cookies handed out by Santa to every child. There is a fire which keeps everyone warm while singing carols.
Other activities include planting a number of triangles around town with shrubs and flowers, creating and maintaining attractive road signage, publishing newsletters and special events. However, the society is only as strong and successful as its membership. We hope you will join us.
