A place where memories are made : the story of Dairy Castle

Abstract

The purpose of this thesis was to tell a story and reflect on a locally owned ice cream shop, Dairy Castle. Dairy Castle has been in business since 1963 and has been an integral part of the Greencastle Community. Besides employing county teens, Dairy Castle provides a hangout with delicious treats and sandwiches. I was employed with Dairy Castle for my high school career and the first two years of college. The first part is the history of Dairy Castle told through past owners and employees. The second part is a reflection of the management styles while I was there and the lessons I learned.
