Connecting Our Community
Hello! Have you ever wondered who hosts the Memorial Day service each year? Who makes sure the street lights are turned on each night? What organization sponsors the local Boy Scout Troop that has been active here since World War II? The Christmas Tree lighting… Garage Sale Days… the Spring Cleanup?
We invite you to learn more about the New Paris Chamber of Commerce! The New Paris Chamber is more than just a networking organization, it supports many of the core institutions and organizations that make up the Jackson Township community.
Many of the small communities in Indiana have been folded into larger municipalities. Some have ceased to exist. New Paris is not on that trajectory! Housing developments and continued growth have seen our small unincorporated community grow in size and population. The Chamber serves as the cornerstone of our local community organization and thanks to our active members, we are pleased to have several great events and expansion plans upcoming! The nation’s 250th birthday this year motivates us to redouble our efforts to keep our community strong. We hope that you consider joining the Chamber as an Individual, Business, or Non-Profit member. After joining, we want to see you involved in any way you can to help support not just the Chamber as an organization, but the local community as a whole. Together, we can make sure that we build community and bring back the hometown spirit that bubbles under the surface here in our little census-designated place. Will you join with us in 2026?
