GREENCASTLE -- People who travel in Greencastle on bicycles no longer have to protect their bikes by chaining them to trees, benches or lamp posts when they stop to shop, eat or go to the post office.

The new green bike racks that are located throughout downtown Greencastle are there because of the generous contributions of the Putnam County Convention and Visitors Bureau, the Greencastle Civic League and the Greencastle Redevelopment Commission.

"We are most grateful for the continuing investment of the civic groups in our community," said Greencastle Mayor Sue Murray. "Once again I am reminded how very special this place we call home is."
