    The Carlisle West Side Neighbors are a group of residents who are spreading the gospel about our great neighborhood and looking to improve it along the way. We started our group in the Spring of 2011 and have been connecting residents who share a love of our North West Corner of Carlisle. In these past few years, many new and exciting things are starting in our area with the demolition of the Tire and Wheel and Masland Factories. We make our presence known at the public meetings related to these projects to ensure the voices from our neighborhood are heard.

    We invest our time in new projects that will directly benefit our neighborhood. Our first major undertaking is a renovation of Heberlig Palmer Park. Are you interested in getting involved? Please let us know!!
