Taste of Logan County Relay for Life Event

Who's excited about the upcoming Taste of Logan County Relay for Life event?

WE ARE!

The event, to be held at the Ohio Hi-Point Career Center, will be Tuesday, March 13th, beginning at 5:00. If you've never been, here's what to expect - loads of fun, lots of food and awesome auctions - all for a good cause.

The night will consist of several area restaurants and caterers set-up inside the Career Center Cafeteria for you to indulge your tastebuds, hence the title, "Taste of Logan County". After you've tried all that hospitality has to offer, you'll make your way to the raffle and auction center.

Local Relay for Life Teams have donated several gift baskets and packages to be auctioned off during the event. All the money raised goes back to the team that donated the items and the funds stay local within Logan County.

Team ILO has donated a Personal Defense Package valued at over $200! The package includes one Concealed Carry Weapons Training Course, a pistol ammo case, two boxes of critical defense ammo, a pepper spray key chain, cleaning patches, ear protection, eye protection and a holster. So, let your guard down for the night and join us for the Relay for Life Taste of Logan County!

Event tickets are $10 at the door or $8 pre-sale at Indian Lake Outfitters or FastTrack Signs. Your admission ticket includes 6 food vouchers to tempt your tummy.

Man Cans at Indian Lake Outfitters

Who's heard of Hart Main, one of the Huffington Post's Favorite Entrepreneurs of 2011? And rightfully so - he's a young entrepreneur with a mission.

We stumbled across Hart's product, Man-Cans, at another local retailer and we quickly fell in love with the concept. We fell so hard, we decided to carry them in our store. Who doesn't want a candle that smells of gun powder, Grandpa's pipe, sawdust or even a campfire? Several of Hart's scents are now available at Indian Lake Outfitters!

As you read above, Man-Cans are made inside an actual soup can purchased from a local grocer. The soup is donated to kitchens all across the area to help those in need. The label is removed from the can and then made into a candle scented with "manly" appeal, like dirt or fresh cut grass.

For each candle purchased from Indian Lake Outfitters that accompanies an unopened can of soup, you will receive a dollar off the price of your candle.

We're on a mission to help Hart continue his - One Candle, One Meal.

Losing Reality and Winning the Dream

Picture a day in the life of Indian Lake Outfitters, like most days, putting forth lots of effort, increasing product knowledge and networking with others in the industry. Today's life begins with a smile. Today's life begins with hopes of winning a $5000 cash give-a-way drawing.

Before you can enter the drawing, you have to decide to participate. You have to focus on the goal. You have to meet the deadline. More importantly, you have to funnel your hopes and dreams into wanting the reality. You have to believe you are a winner. 

Because you're a dreamer, you have the courage to get started. You devote your entire day to success. You're on a mission to complete the task at hand. You begin to own the dream and think about how the $5000 would effect your life. You're happy. You feel like a winner.

The moment comes to seperate your dreams from reality. The hype is filling your heart. There are fifty $100 bills starring you in the face and hundreds of people to your back. It's just you and the podium - you're numb to the outside world. You still believe you're winner. You think the money is yours...

Then that other guy comes from the middle of no-where, bursts your bubble, crushes your dream and takes your money! You begin to come down off your high, feel depressed, mope for a few minutes, complain about how things never go your way, maybe even shed a tear and tell yourself you're so much more deserving than the other guy? Pretty cruddy right?

When reality finally sets in, bring back your dreams. You were full of emtion that makes you human. You were full of excitement that gave you hope. You had ideas that made you look forward to tomorrow. You had an extra bounce in your step, high blood pressure, a new pitch to your squeal and lots of positivity.

There are brighter things to come.

You are always a winner in your own dreams, it's up to you to make them real. Take Your Shot!

Local Christmas in Lakeview, Ohio

For the last four years the Lakeview Business Group has partnered with the Indian Lake Area Chamber of Commerce to offer a local parade through Downtown Lakeview. This year's parade was themed "It's a Magical Christmas at Indian Lake". We at Indian Lake Outfitters wanted to support the local hometown event as much as possible so we submitted an entry in the 4th Annual Lakeview Christmas Parade where we were awarded a plaque for "Best of Theme".

After the parade, the Lakeview Business Group sponsored the Lakeview Christmas Event for area residents to stroll the shops of Downtown Lakeview, enjoy a horse and carriage ride through the city and enter to win numerous prizes. Residents could also participate in a scavenger hunt and take the kids to visit Santa at Osgood bank in exchange for a canned food items. Area businesses offered door prizes, drawings and refreshments as well.

It was a great evening in Downtown Lakeview of Indian Lake - thank you to all who came!

Outreach to Indian Lake for Christmas in the Park 2011

It’s that time of year again for the annual Logan County Neighborhood Outreach Christmas in the Park at the Indian Lake State Park. If you haven’t seen the light display, it’s a must see! Several area businesses and organizations donate their time to build a display of holiday cheer for local residents and visitors to enjoy. With over 40 businesses on display and two roads of campsites, the program continues to grow each year marking 2011 the 5th Annual Christmas in the Park.

All proceeds from the event benefit the children and families from the Western, Chippewa and Russells Point neighborhoods through the Outreach Centers. Outreach centers partner with neighbors and residents to facilitate and organize programs that promote stability, children safety and strong communities. Locally, the activities include monthly meetings, holiday events, birthday parties, family outings, mentor programs, nutrition programs, job training and homework help. For more information on the Outreach Center, contact Drew Shick or Aaron Pool at 937-843-9283.

Christmas in the Park is open to the public on December 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 16th, 17th, 18th and 23rd from 6-9 at the Indian Lake State Park Campground. The group is asking for a $5 donation per car load that tours the display. Bring the whole family, drive through a Winter Wonderland of twinkling light displays, enjoy the show and send us a picture of you and the family in front of the Indian Lake Outfitters scene. Santa doesn't like to duck hunt alone!
