Kitras Art Glass

Kitras Art Glass Wish Ball
Kitras Art Glass Birthday Wish Ball Ornaments are a great way to celebrate life. These bright colorful hand blown glass ornamental balls make wonderful, unique birthday gifts for just about anyone on your gift list. The ball for each month is made of translucent splashes of color to convey the essence of traditional birthstone colors and they come in full-color gift boxes, ready to give as a very special gift.

Kitras Art Glass uses centuries old glass blowing techniques to create these one of a kind pieces of blown glass art. The interior glass strands add an extra touch of elegance to these orbs.  Attached to each ball is a tag that reads: "A birthday marks the celebration of an individual's spirit. Kitras Art Glass honors this celebration with our Birthday Wish Balls. Make a wish and the web-like strands of glass will capture it and make it come true!"

A birthday wish from me to you, in hope that all your wishes come true.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us at Indian Lake Outfitters.

The Insurance Goddess Meets the Outdoors

“My goal is to help people understand insurance and to provide solutions to their insurance problems. It doesn’t have to be complicated. Really.” A quote from http://www.insurancegoddess.com/.

After much consideration, we recently switched our services to Carrie Reynolds, The Insurance Goddess, of Alan Galvez Insurance. Carrie was more than informative on any topic that arose with our insurance hesitations, she was extremely patient while we awaited the addition of our archery range business and she’s been 100% supportive of our business from the start.


What we respect the most about Carrie is her commitment to the client in understanding their business products and services. The first time we met Carrie she remarked that she didn’t hunt, fish or camp but she’d love to learn more about Indian Lake Outfitters because so many people she speaks with enjoy the outdoors.



A huge thank you to Carrie for the great service and coverage and to the Insurance Goddess for stopping in and getting educated about our business!

Calvary Baptist Sportsmens Dinner

Every year, Calvary Baptist Church offers a Sportsman's Dinner to its memers as well as the general public. The event begins with fellowship and networking over a fantastic meal prepared of wild game. Once the meal is complete the guests are dismissed to break out in to sessions and choose two topics they'd like to learn more about. Lee Robers, the Youth Pastor of Calvary had approached us at Indian Lake Outfitters and asked us to do a geocaching demonstration as one of the break out sessions. We graciously accepted and awaited our first banquet on Friday, November 12.

The church was packed with sportsmen of all ages awaiting a great meal and hoping to pick up a few pointers from a break out session or two. There were speakers from the ODNR, lots of avid hunters, several trophies on display, a couple of fella's talked about their hunting travels, some were experts on muzzleloading, there was a guy that taught about fishing for bass and of course Indian Lake Outfitters introduced Geocaching 101.


Once the break out sessions were over, we all gathered back in the cafeteria for dessert and coffee while we listened to the guest speaker, a fellow pastor and outdoorsman himself.  After his message, Pastor Jeff Willetts spoke for a brief moment and drew a few lucky guests as door prize winners.

For us at Indian Lake Outfitters, the evening was more than enjoyable. It was wonderful being involved with a strong community of outdoorsmen. We had a fabulous meal, met lots of great folks and shared our story with many. Thanks for having us and we look forward to next year!
