Good Neighbor Day On this day local citizens have an opportunity to get to know one another, renew friendships, and strengthen community ties.  The Chamber, along with the City of Greencastle, Eitel's Flowers & Gifts, and the Greencastle Civic league, distributes dozens of roses to anyone who asks for them.  The only rule is "eleven of the dozen must be given away to eleven different people to spread neighborly cheer throughout the community".  This event is such a big hit that al of the roses are gone by 9:00 a.m.!
BPW Reality Store The Chamber helps the Business & Professional Women organization put on a program for area 6th graders.  This program is like the game of "Life".  The students roll dice to find out how many children they have; they choose a career; buy/rent a house; and balance a budget.

Spirit of Christmas Award The Chamber awards a traveling plaque to the business in Greencastle whose holiday decorations most represent the "Spirit of Christmas".
