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?

This holiday season, the Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce is encouraging you to Think Local First and support the small businesses that make our community strong by shopping local during Small Business Weekend, Saturday, November 29th and Sunday, November 30th throughout the Brookville area. In a world where it’s easy to click “add to cart” or standing in line at a big-box store, it’s more important than ever to remember what happens when we choose to support the businesses right here at home. Every dollar spent at a small business stays right here to strengthen our local economy and support the people who live and work among us.  When you shop small, you’re helping a little girl take dance lessons, a little boy get his team jersey, a mom put food on the table, a dad pay the mortgage, or a college student afford tuition. “We don’t have large chain restaurants or shopping malls in Brookville,” said Jamie Popson, Executive Director of the Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce, “but what we do have is a warm smile that greets you, genuine service from someone who knows your name, a personal touch to help you find just the right thing, and a shopping experience where you leave with more than your purchase, you leave with a new friend.” Small Business Weekend in Brookville will be filled with festive fun and community spirit. Shoppers can enjoy giveaways, discounts, specials, and a free tote bag sponsored by local businesses eager to thank you for choosing local. It’s the perfect time to explore the variety Brookville has to offer, discover unique holiday gifts, and enjoy the charm of small-town shopping at its best. From curated vintage treasures and elegant home décor, chic fashion, luxurious fragrances, intimate accessories, gourmet treats, and festive finds, the Brookville area is full of surprises. You’ll discover outdoor gear and quality workwear featuring trusted brands and so much more. Every corner of Brookville offers something special — a blend of creativity, tradition, and personality that makes shopping local a true destination of discovery. With rising costs and challenges touching everyone in some way, this season is a reminder that kindness costs nothing and that supporting your neighbors makes a real difference. Every purchase, no matter how small, helps keep our community strong and thriving. Small Business Weekend is more than a shopping event — it’s a celebration of community, connection, and the people who make Brookville feel like home.
