November 2025

The Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce and Brookville Area High School are again teaming up and excited to welcome the public to the annual Wheelers & Dealers event on Wednesday, December 18th. This much-loved project gives senior Economics students the opportunity to showcase their creativity, business skills, and hard work — and the public is invited to be part of the fun. Led by Economics teacher Nancee Miles, senior students design, fabricate, and market their own products using recycled or low-cost materials. They create commercials and presentations, learning hands-on lessons in entrepreneurship, marketing, and teamwork. Originally launched nearly two decades ago by former teacher Bill Kutz, Wheelers & Dealers continues to be a standout tradition that prepares students with skills that last a lifetime. Event Details:Wednesday, December 17th, 11:15am–12:00pmAuxiliary Gym, Brookville Area High SchoolFree to attend • Donations benefit the Class of 2026 How It Works:When you walk in, you’ll have the opportunity to purchase “play money” at the door. You’ll then use that play money to “buy” your favorite student-made items. Students do their best to create extra products for the public, but availability is not guaranteed — and that’s okay! You can still show your support by donating even if an item is sold out. At the end of the event, the student with the highest sales will earn bragging rights and a gift card sponsored by the Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce. All proceeds support the Class of 2026. This event is open to EVERYONE — parents, families, neighbors, businesses, and anyone who wants to cheer on our young entrepreneurs. Come celebrate creativity, innovation, and community spirit while supporting our local students. Questions?
