VFW Post 1550 starting a new Winter Market tradition

VFW Post 1550 will be starting an annual Winter Market on the third Saturday in the months of February, March and April from 10 am to 3pm.

These events are open to the community and a way to shake off the winter blues. There will be local artisans and small businesses showing off their products in preparation for the summer. 

VFW Post 1550 is located at 819 S. Jackson St. in Greencastle near the Depauw University sports fields. The events are scheduled for Feb. 18, March 18, and April 15 in our large community hall. The goal is to promote our local small businesses and creative entrepreneurs in a family friendly environment. It is an opportunity for the community to gather and visit, shop and enjoy the warm atmosphere at our Post.

The Winter Market is the beginning of what will be a new tradition with the VFW Post 1550 going forward.  Vendors can reach out to our Post or the organizer, Kris Rogers, to get an application for their space.  Businesses that are interested in participating in sponsorship opportunities can also reach out to us.

Deadline for vendor applications and sponsorships are January 18, 2023.

VFW Post 1550 has been a part of Greencastle since 1950. Our mission is to provide services for our local combat veterans and support the IN National Guard Armory in Greencastle.

We are open to the public for live music, watching sports events, karaoke and our famous lawn mower race in the summer. Our community hall is available for special events like rehearsal dinners, wedding receptions and graduation parties.  We are here to serve our community in any way we are able.
