We both were born and raised in Carlisle. We graduated from neighboring school districts (Big Spring and Boiling Springs), but Carlisle was always our home. We believe it’s a great place to raise our 10-yr-old daughter and 7-yr-old son. There are so many great programs and events for children in Carlisle. Our children have enjoyed sports at the Y, Dickinson camps, Parks & Rec programs, classes at CPYB, and the many seasonal events organized by downtown businesses and organizations.⠀

 ⠀
There’s something about Carlisle that makes it stand apart from any other place. We’re within a few hours of several metropolitan areas and tourist attractions, but we have the perfect small town feel. With the War College, Dickinson College, Dickinson Law School, Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet, and the car shows, we get to meet people from all different backgrounds and walks of life.⠀ ⠀

Our community is very supportive of small businesses and Carlisle has so many amazing businesses to choose from. We’ve been able to exponentially grow our business over the last 6 years because of this support and willingness to “keep it local”. It will be exciting to see what will be coming in the near future with the redevelopment of the former Tire & Wheel and Lear properties.⠀ ⠀

We love Carlisle and are so proud to be a part of such a great community. Color Carlisle is doing an incredible job of bringing us all together with a shared love of this amazing place we call home. – Amy & Billy, South Side Deli
