SHRUB OAK, NY — Christmas spirit was on display early in Yorktown when two members of the world-renowned Radio City Rockettes came to the John C. Hart Memorial Library Sept. 26.

The Rockettes took time off from rehearsing for the 2019 Christmas Spectacular by visiting libraries during the month for festive arts and crafts sessions with fans and families.

Children and their families were able to take photos with the Rockettes which were instantly printed and framed inside a snow globe.
