Carlisle Area Chamber Foundation (CACF) works hand in hand with the Chamber to provide educational opportunities for all members of our community, whether it is events, training opportunities for area businesses, or providing financial support for businesses that might be looking to expand their foot-print or add employees and helping to cover closing and business startup costs.
Business in Education partners the Chamber with two of our local public school districts to better connect its students to the business community.
Carlisle Area Chamber Foundation (CACF) is the Chamber’s 501 (c) 3 affiliate that provides educational and developmental experiences to enhance the effectiveness of businesses through workshops, seminars, and informational programs.
Government Affairs partners with local officials to support a common development vision for the Carlisle region.
Membership Committee works to increase membership through recruitment and retention programs and heighten public awareness of and appreciation for Chamber programs and objectives.
EPIC is the Emerging Professional group that meets regularly to learn more about advancing their careers by hearing from local business leaders and panelists.
Diversity, Equity, and Belonging (DEB) committee is dedicated to providing development programs that promote and value diversity, equity, and belonging to attract a resilient workforce so our member business community and its workforce thrives.
The Non-Profit Roundtable is to help our non-profits increase their knowledge, revenue, and support. Each session will include a nonprofit training, discussions about practices of non-profits, fundraising, marketing, and much more!
The collaboration between the Big Spring and Carlisle School Districts provides students with valuable opportunities to explore a range of career pathways. By integrating work-based learning into the school curriculum, the program enriches students’ educational experiences and offers insights that help inform their longterm career goals. The Chamber of Commerce Foundation (Foundation) partners with each school’s School to Career Coordinator to connect students with local businesses, placing them in exploration programs and internships.
In addition, the Foundation organizes an annual Career Expo Fair each spring for students, Chamber members, and the community. The event dedicates several hours to students before opening to the general public. During this time, participating employers are available to answer questions, discuss their business needs, explain how to enter specific career fields, and distribute informational materials. This one-on-one interaction provides students with an opportunity to showcase their skills and interests, creating a “match-making” experience between employers and potential interns.
This year, the Foundation also hosted Educator Bus Tours for approximately 175 local educators. The tours provided a firsthand look at career pathway options and the skills needed in various industries. These tours facilitated meaningful conversations between educators and businesses, fostering a better understanding of job opportunities and the skills required to succeed.
As its history speaks through the many colonial- and Civil War-era buildings in Carlisle, living in this more than 270-yearold small town is an experience. From its small-town charm as you walk through the square to its urban allure, with a diverse range of shops and businesses lining the streets. Carlisle has its own experience. Named on the list of Top 100 Best Small Towns in from Livability.com, Carlisle has strong public participation and strong sense of community, as well as involvement in civic affairs. As noted in their article, the historic environment is livable and vibrant: “As redevelopment in one part of town continues, Carlisle retains its enviable status as one of the country’s loveliest, most livable small towns, graced with a historic downtown full of 18-century buildings and the stories that go with them. Among its other amenities are great shopping and a vibrant cultural and social scene enriched by international residents who come to the Army War College, the Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet, Dickinson College, or
the Penn State Dickinson School of Law, all headquartered here.”
With such a rich military history and an involved community in the Carlisle area, we have also been voted one of the best towns for retiring veterans. MoneyInc.com ranked Carlisle as #12 of the Best Places for Retired Military to Live in the country. “Cumberland County has rich ties to the military community. Its military connections come by way of the Carlisle Barracks, the home of one of the oldest and most respected military educational institutions in the country. A VA medical center is an easy 30 minutes’ drive away. The cost of living is attractively low, and further bolstered by Pennsylvania’s tax exemption for federal pensions.” Not surprisingly, Harrisburg Magazine featured Carlisle in their hometown section as “Walkable, hospitable, and oh so livable…”
Carlisle boasts a rich history, a vibrant and growing business community, as well as a diverse an engaged residential area. We know once you live the Carlisle Experience you won’t want to leave.

Real Estate Taxes
Real Estate – All real estate property in Cumberland County is assessed at 100% of the 2010-year value. The real estate tax is levied by all School Districts, most Municipalities, and the County. The county real estate tax includes 0.166 mills (.000166) for the support of County libraries. A mill is a way to express tax rate. One mill equals one thousandth of a dollar. One mill is expressed as 1. The tax is computed by multiplying the millage rate set by the taxing body times the assessed value of the property.
This is a flat tax levied upon each person 18 years of age and over living in the townships of East Pennsboro, Hampden, North Middleton, Silver Spring, the Borough of Mechanicsburg and Big Spring, Camp Hill, Shippensburg, and West Shore School Districts.
The Local Tax Enabling Act authorizes Local Earned Income Taxes (EIT) for municipalities and school districts. This tax is 0.5% of your earned income for the municipality and between .9% and 1.5% for the school district in which you reside. Act 7 of 2007 amended the Local Tax Enabling Act, Act 511 of 1965, to permit municipalities and school district to impose, on persons employed within the jurisdiction, a combined Local Services Tax (LST) of up to a maximum of $52 a year.

Nestled in the Cumberland Valley of South Central Pennsylvania, the historic Borough of Carlisle is the county seat of Cumberland County. Settled in 1751 by Scots-Irish immigrants, Carlisle has quite the historical story that has often times been nationally significant. The town was named after Carlisle in Cumbria, England. Throughout the years, Carlisle has seen its share of war. After Benjamin Franklin’s secured treaty of 1753 with the Iroquois Confederacy failed in 1754 with the start of the French and Indian War, Carlisle or at that time Fort Carlisle was the site of the organization of the Forbes Expedition of 1758.
With the passage of time, Carlisle played an important role in America’s fight for independence. The Carlisle Barracks, now the second-oldest Army post in the US, became the munitions supply headquarters for the continental army. It was at the oldest building in Carlisle, the First Presbyterian Church, that two important documents were signed: a document signed on July 12, 1774 to protest the Boston Port Act (of the Intolerable Acts); and the 2nd and most
famous was the Declaration of Independence by the three Cumberland county attorneys – George Ross, James Smith, and James Wilson. The founder of Dickinson Grammar School (now Dickinson College – the first new college founded in the newly recognized United States), Benjamin Rush, also was a signer of the Declaration of
Carlisle was incorporated as a borough on April 13, 1782.
Independence. One of the legends of this time period is that of Carlisle’s famous Molly Pitcher. Don’t know about Molly Pitcher? Molly Ludwig Hay McCauley joined the war effort alongside her husband, William Hays. She earned her nickname by taking pitchers of water to soldiers in the Continental Army during the Battle of Monmouth.
Carlisle’s historic legacy continued into the Civil War Era as well. During this turbulent time, Carlisle served as a stop on the Underground Railroad to help slaves escape from slavery in the south. And as part of the assault on Gettysburg in July of 1863, General Fitzhugh Lee launched an attack on the Cumberland County region, attacking and shelling the borough during the Battle of Carlisle. Even today the remnants of a cannonball can be seen in one of the columns of the Old Carlisle Courthouse. During the battle, Free African American soldiers quickly erect Fort couch in Lemoyne to assist in the defense of Carlisle from a confederate raid.
Fast forward to the late 1870s and Carlisle is now home to the Carlisle Indian Industrial School. It was the only federally supported school for American Indians off a reservation. Jim Thorpe, athletic hero, entered the school in
1907 and led the football team to surprising victories over both Harvard University and University of Pennsylvania. And as history progressed, Carlisle was the eastern most terminus of the Pennsylvania Turnpike in 1940, one of the first limited-access highways in the US.
Carlisle is still making history to secure its legacy as one of America’s integral areas throughout the story of the United States of America.
Educating the future of America is no easy task; however, we have great school districts and higher education campuses in the Carlisle area that succeed at that. The goal of preparing students to be leaders in our county is seen every day with local universities, colleges, and public and private schools. All area schools have excellent tools in place to help children and adult learners excel. The Carlisle Area Chamber is working with our member school districts to create a bridge between the business community and the students to create a more robust future workforce. The Chamber’s Business in Education program matches students with business community industries, as well as business community leaders.
In the Business in Education program, the Carlisle Area Chamber of Commerce acts as a bridge between our educational institutions including higher education, local school districts and our Chamber members. There is a shared focus to
prepare students with meaningful job experiences and opportunities, job exploration and internships with local businesses as well as a seamless transition into certification programs. Through the Chamber’s partnerships, there is a shared vision through these collaborations. Our goal is to provide support and guidance to students, educators and businesses, while enhancing the experience for all involved.
The far reach of the area’s colleges and universities affords students liberal arts degrees as well as more focused degrees such
as science degrees in robotics. As you read in the Business, Industry and Transportation section in this community profile, you learn that Cumberland County is the fastest growing county in Pennsylvania. And what better way to highlight how fast our county is growing with highlighting our member schools and institutions of higher education. The following is a list of member districts, schools, college and universities.
At the very end of the section is a school district matrix illustrating what each district has as far as schools and what grades they instruct.

The real estate market in Carlisle offers a diverse range of opportunities for buyers, sellers, and investors. Known for its charming small-town atmosphere, Carlisle is home to historic properties, suburban neighborhoods, and nearby rural areas. With a relatively low cost of living compared to larger metropolitan areas, the market attracts both first-time homebuyers and those looking for a more peaceful lifestyle. The demand for properties in the area has remained steady, driven by the town’s strong community, proximity to major highways, and its reputation as a hub for education and local business.
Commercial growth within the Carlisle sub-market continues to grow as development pushes westward within Cumberland County. A balanced supply of commercial retail and business space can be found both downtown and in outlying retail centers. Professional office space absorption is consistent with Central Pennsylvania rates with prices being somewhat lower in the sub-market.
R K E T S N A P S H O
Historically, Central Pennsylvania, to include the Greater Carlisle Area, has enjoyed a very stable real estate market. A sound economy and a growing population benefit from the “conservative” nature of the region – with supply and demand generally being in balance and not typically subject to great “swings” seen in some of the country’s more metropolitan areas.
Real Estate sales has grown in Cumberland County exponentially in the last year.
The Carlisle area is fortunate to have UPMC Carlisle and WellSpan Health, major health care systems, providing top quality health care for the needs of our community. Specialty practices, lab services, and urgent care are all right here in our local area.
In downtown Carlisle, health care options do exist as well. One may go to the more than 100-year-old Sadler Health Center on North Hanover Street. Sadler Health treats those that may not necessarily have health insurance. They can assist people not only with medical, dental, and mental health needs, but also with obtaining health care coverage through various programs associated with the center. This is an excellent resource for many residents in the local area that need medical attention. They recently also opened a new facility in the Mechanicsburg area.
The Carlisle area is equipped with some of the best orthopedic doctors in the region, as well as physical therapy options. The Orthopedic Institute of Pennsylvania’s new 40,000 sq ft state-of-the-art facility now offers a “WalkIn” clinic. Other physical therapy options include Phoenix Rehabilitation and Health Services on the Harrisburg Pike, Harmony in Motion on Ritner Highway, Drayer Physical Therapy on Westminster Drive and Jennifer Court, as well as AccessPT on East Pomfret Street.
So, what can you do in Carlisle to help propagate a healthy, fitness lifestyle? There are several choices within the area that include dentists, chiropractors, spas, specialty fitness programs, gym memberships, health coaches, and yoga studios. Because as studies have shown, incorporating healthy lifestyle habits helps to prevent major hospital stays and will improve the quality of your life and increase healthspan.
You can find a listing of our members under the Health and Fitness categories in the back of the Directory.

TheCumberland Valley’s unique regional position makes it an ideal and valuable location to connect businesses, suppliers, and customers with access to some of the most crucial highway systems in the eastern United States. Cumberland Valley boasts the only setting that brings together Interstates 81, 83, 76 and US 11/15, all major routes of transportation of goods.
Major employers in government, healthcare, retail, transportation, and warehousing industries appreciate the value of this location, bringing business and jobs to the region. The top five industries in the Carlisle area include: Education Services and Health Care; Retail; Arts & Entertainment and Recreation; Professional, Scientific Management, Waste Management; and Transportation and Warehousing and Utilities.
Thanks to this, the county’s unemployment rate is consistently one of the lowest in the state. In 4th quarter 2024, the county’s unemployment rate was 3.1%, while the statewide unemployment rate as 3.5%.
The Carlisle Area Chamber of Commerce works diligently with our partners, the Cumberland Area Economic Development Corporation (CAEDC) and the Shippensburg Small Business Development Center (SBDC) to aid entrepreneurs in making their dreams a
reality. CAEDC is an economic development agency tasked with promoting Cumberland Valley’s economic development and accelerating business relocation, growth, and innovation. They work with Enterprise zones, foreign trade zones, Keystone Innovation Zones, and SBA Historically Underutilized Business Zones. The Shippensburg SBDC works with entrepreneurs to flush out business plans and works with them one-on-one to help them put down on paper what is essentially in their head and what was once a dream. The Shippensburg SBDC works with aspiring business owners free of charge and in many cases provides different seminars that will help business owners get their footing.
This is often where the Chamber and the SBDC work well together. The Carlisle Area Chamber offers several educational opportunities for business owners, as well as people in all levels of business to help enhance growth in our members’ businesses. This is just another example of how the Chamber and its community partners work together to be catalysts for growth in Cumberland County and the Carlisle area.
It is often said that Carlisle is the Northeast Corridor hub for transportation and supply chain. As mentioned above, the strategic location of Carlisle makes it ideal for
transportation, logistic companies, and warehouses. This explains the exponential growth in this industry within the past 5 years in Carlisle. To point, FedEx recently constructed a brand-new distribution facility on Allen Road in Carlisle.
Utilizing the major highway systems, it is only a 2–3-hour drive to most cities on the Northeast corridor, including New York City, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Washington, DC, and Pittsburgh. The region is also within a 10-hour drive of over 50% of the US population.
With ongoing investments into the community and infrastructure, Carlisle stands out as a Pennsylvania town that’s both honoring its past and actively building a robust economic future.
Cumberland County holds the AAA Bond rating from Standard of Poor’s rating services.
Leadership Cumberland began as Leadership Carlisle in the fall of 1989 after a year of research and planning by the Carlisle Area Chamber of Commerce. The name change in 2004 and physical move of the office to the west shore in 2009 reflects a commitment to a more inclusive county-wide program, yet the mission has not wavered–to develop a program that would serve the county by developing individuals to become effective leaders in the workplace and community.
Since that time over 550 individuals have graduated from Leadership Cumberland’s Fellow program. Our Fellows, as participants are called, represent a diverse group of emerging leaders from banking, the law, healthcare, government, production, education, and nonprofits. While differing in age, background, and profession they share one common trait—the motivation and desire to take on greater responsibilities in the community and at work. We support that desire by providing them with the skill sets, information, and networking needed to make that happen.
The Junior Leadership Cumberland (JLC) Program was added in the Spring of 2020. The program is designed to familiarize high school students in their Junior year with the various elements that form a strong and dynamic community and to help students develop leadership skills. The curriculum acquaints participants with community needs, opportunities, challenges, and resources. It gives them the opportunity to develop leadership, communication, and team-building skills. It also provides them with the opportunity to interact with students from other schools, community leaders, and decision-makers.
As of the Summer of 2022, Leadership Cumberland is now facilitated in partnership with the Carlisle Area and the West Shore Chambers of Commerce. For more information, visit www.leadershipcumberland.org.
SUPPORTING PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR CLIENTS THROUGHOUT CENTRAL PA. THE NEWEST PROJECT SHOWN, HARBOUR VILLAGE, NEARS COMPLETION IN 2025.
Business Women’s Forum began in 1994 in the Carlisle area. As the event began to grow and pick up steam, the organizers of the event branched out and partnered with the West Shore Chamber to give the event more of a regional presence. Today, it is recognized as the largest one-day professional development and tradeshow event in the Central Pennsylvania region.
In order to understand the magnitude of this event, you must first realize that it encompasses more than nine Central Pennsylvania Chambers of Commerce, including the primary organizers of the event, the Carlisle Area Chamber, and the West Shore Chamber, plus the Gettysburg Adams Area, Mechanicsburg, Shippensburg Area, and York County Chambers of Commerce. With all these Chambers involved, Business Women’s Forum draws attendees from throughout the mid-state.
Since Business Women Forum attendees are business professionals, our goal is to ensure that our speakers address issues of relevance to women
in the workplace. Some of our prior keynote speakers include Kimberly K. Schaller, Executive Vice President of Hershey Entertainment & Resorts Co., Diann Roffe, Olympic gold and silver medalist; Anne Beiler, founder of Auntie Anne’s Pretzels; and Courtney Lynch, author of “Leading from the Front.” Speakers are chosen not only for their professionalism, but also for their abilities to lead and inspire.
In addition, attendees can choose among several workshops for the day. The topics vary in content, but always hone in on ways to be a more effective professional. Past featured workshops have touched upon:
• Effective Communication Skills
• Mentoring
• Marketing
• Retirement & Succession Planning
• Hiring & Firing Pitfalls
• Time Management
• Leadership Skills
• Growing Your Business
All of the workshops tie in with the theme of leadership in varying degrees, so as to provide informative sessions for professionals at all levels.
Every year, Business Women’s Forum awards a local professional woman for her achievements not only in her professional career, but also in her leadership in her community, as well as personally. Throughout our 30+ years, we have awarded numerous deserving nominees the prestigious Business Woman of the Year.
With more than 300 attendees, we encourage local businesses to purchase booths to market their products and services. This is a great opportunity for many organizations to get in front of a large group of women.

It can be hard to find a financial institution you can trust. Fortunately for Carlisle residents, there are many financial institutions in our area. From large national banks to smaller locally owned banks, as well as credit unions, Carlisle has a variety of financial organizations. So, what are the differences?
Nationally and regionally identified banks are just that, nationally or regionally known and rooted in our community. The benefits of these financial institutions are that they have multiple locations and can be transferred from state to state should the need arise. Other benefits of these organizations are some of the programs that they offer to area residents that they may not always qualify for at other banks. The locally owned banks are based in our community and offer many different programs. By being based in our community, these institutions have close ties to ensure that our business community and residents are able to get the financing they need so that our area continues to grow.
Our area also has a number of federal credit unions, as well as community credit unions. What’s the difference you ask? The federal credit union is insured by the National Credit Union Shared Insurance Fund. Community credit unions are
insured by private insurers. Eligibility requirements are different for each credit union; however, here are a few ways you may be eligible for entry into the credit union:
• Through your employer or industry
• Based on where you live
• Through a family member
• Through a group like school, church, or association.
How do credit unions differ from banks? Credit Unions are managed by a volunteer board of directors elected by the members. Credit unions are also non-profit organizations, so they are structured differently from banks. Money is reinvested into the credit union, while a bank usually has shareholders that make investments in the bank.
There exist benefits for each organization, and it is important to look into each institution to see what you’re looking for in a financial institution and what programs you feel will fit you best. You can view the Largest 10 Financial Institutions in the Carlisle area in the graphic to the right.
Protect those things you buy
Financial institutions ensure their holdings, it only makes sense that we insure the other assets we hold
dear as well. Looking for insurance to protect your precious assets: your health, home, automobiles, recreation vehicles, pets, and more, Carlisle has quite a few places from which to choose. Not only do we have agents from larger, more well-known agencies, but we also have great locally owned insurance companies that can help out area residents insure the things that are most precious to them.
Forging through the tax code, as well as regulations on various industries can be hard for anyone to wade through. Fortunately, Carlisle has a plethora of certified public accountants and bookkeepers. These professionals work diligently to stay up on the newest standards and rules that are issued by both local, state, and federal officials.
Protecting your monetary assets and essentially finding ways of making them grow is the tireless efforts of many financial advisors. Residents can find many advisers from both nationally recognized businesses to privately-owned firms that zero-in on what their customers are looking for and help set them up for future financial success.

What is one area that impacts our food supply, our environmental and the economy? If you said agriculture, give yourself ten points. It’s important to take a deeper look at how agriculture, especially locally owned farms, impact the local community and economy.
The Cumberland Valley, of which Carlisle is the heart, is very rich with local family farms. First it starts with the farmer and the farm. In Cumberland County, we have more than 162 farms that covers more than 19,984 acres of land. The county ranks number seven in the state when it comes to farmland preservation. Through several state programs, Pennsylvania has made farm preservation a top priority because of the great impact on the community and the local economy. A few of those programs include the Agricultural Security Areas program, the Pennsylvania Agricultural Conservation Easement Purchase Program (PACE), and the Clean and Green program. Each of these programs assists Pennsylvania communities to preserve and protect the farming landscape.
Farming provides not only local sustenance through the growth of different crops, which are harvested and sold to local retailers that are then sold to the consumers; but it also provides land management and cultivation, transportation jobs, distribution jobs, as well as retail employment. All of this stems from one farm. You can see how every of
the 162 farms in the county creates growth within the county.
Cumberland County is the fastest growing county in Pennsylvania for good reason: innovation and transportation. Transportation plays an important role in farming because every farm needs reliable equipment that enables its product to be harvested and then equipment to transport these goods to market and sale.
In 2022, we welcomed Destiny Dairy Bar to the Carlisle business community. A dream sprung from the local Stover Farms, the Destiny Dairy Bar products include A2 dairy items such as a variety of flavored creamlined milk, ice cream, as well as Wagyu beef meat available in various cuts. Located right outside of Carlisle on 60 Horners Road, you can visit the bar and pick up fresh milk, meat, and ice cream. You can also check out the livestock through the tour of their facility and learn more about the whole process.
Newville is growing in the agriculture commodity field. Just northwest of the red light in Newville you will find Reykjavik Creamery where they specialize in co-packing Greek, Icelandic Skyr and other dairy products. Not only do they ship this regionally, but their products are found in our own grocery stores just a few miles from their creamery.
From the small town of Newville, we now move to Gardners, PA that is located just off route 94 a few miles south of Carlisle. You’ll find
as you’re traveling south a mass expense of fruit trees and beehives. As you find yourself in the midst of these beautiful rolling hills of trees, you are in the middle of Peters Orchard. This family-owned farm has operated since 1870. Here you’ll find numerous locally grown fruits, vegetables, honey, dairy, and eggs. Should you not want to travel outside of Carlisle, on Wednesdays you can go to the town square and shop local vendors at the “Farmers on the Square” farmers’ market. These farmers and vendors come together once a week and bring their specialty to sell at the market. If you’re new to the area, this is a great opportunity to get connected to local vendors and see what Carlisle has to offer.
