The Yonkers Historical Society History Awards for 2025 was held at the historic Sherwood House Museum on Sunday, June 1, 2025. Nine high school students and their families were in attendance. Unfortunately, one arrived too late to join the above group photo, but she can be seen with presenters, Kathy Ennis and Loren Chaidez in the below photos. A special thanks to the YHS volunteers, who were on hand to help at the event. Photos taken by Jason Medina.
