Meet the people behind BoxDrop B/CS. 🤍
Behind every local business is a story, and the Keller family has one worth sharing.
Todd and Darla Keller have spent 40 years building a life together, with 38 of those years devoted to ministry and serving others. When their journey eventually brought them to BoxDrop B/CS Mattress & Furniture in 2020, they carried those same values with them: faith, family, hard work and a genuine desire to help people.
Today, BoxDrop is truly a family business. Their daughter Bristol has joined Todd and Darla, with hopes of one day carrying the business forward into the next generation.
But what stood out to us most about the Kellers isn’t simply what they sell. It’s how they treat people. They want every person who walks through their doors to feel heard, respected and valued, and they continue to give back to organizations throughout our community.
These are the stories I love sharing through Stroll. We may recognize the name on the sign, but getting to know the people, families and stories behind our local businesses is something entirely different.
We are grateful to have BoxDrop B/CS Mattress & Furniture as a Stroll Indian Lakes partner and even more grateful for the opportunity to introduce you to the family behind it. ❤️
Be sure to read the Keller family’s full story in our September issue of Stroll Indian Lakes.

A Year in Pictures 🤍
It’s amazing how a photograph can take you right back to a moment.
Looking through these images from our first year of Stroll Indian Lakes, I don’t just see photographs. I see the people behind them, the conversations we shared, the stories I was trusted to tell, and the connections that grew along the way.
Some stories made us laugh. Some inspired us. Some reminded us of what really matters. And some introduced us to neighbors we may have lived just a few streets away from but had never had the chance to know.
That is what has made this first year so meaningful to me.
To every family, neighbor, young person and local business who allowed us to share a little piece of your story, thank you. You are what filled these pages and made this first year of Stroll Indian Lakes so special.
These are more than pictures from our first year. They are little pieces of our community’s story. ❤️
And we have so many more stories yet to tell.

From our first issue to our first anniversary. ❤️
There is something pretty special about this one.
When Stroll Indian Lakes launched one year ago, the Schaefer family was featured in our inaugural issue. Michael and Schaefer Custom Homes also believed in Stroll from the very beginning, becoming one of the local businesses that helped make that first issue possible.
Now, one year later, we’re celebrating our anniversary by featuring Michael and Schaefer Custom Homes once again, this time sharing the story behind the business he has spent years building.
Their motto, “Building Better Relationships,” says so much about the way Michael and his team approach their work. Beautiful homes matter, but so do the relationships built along the way. In fact, one client has returned to Schaefer Custom Homes to build five different homes!
Thank you to Michael, Sandra and the entire Schaefer family for being part of the Stroll Indian Lakes story from the very beginning. Having you in our inaugural issue and again in our first anniversary issue makes this feel like such a wonderful full circle moment.
Pick up your September issue to read “Building Better Relationships, One Home at a Time” and learn more about Michael and Schaefer Custom Homes. 🏡

⚾ Stepping Up to the Plate!

Meet Samuel Richards, our Athlete of the Month, whose journey on and off the baseball field is a reminder that success is about more than wins and losses.

At just 14, Samuel is learning the value of teamwork, discipline, perseverance, and resilience—and understanding that setbacks are simply part of the process. With his sights set on continued improvement, he’s taking every practice, every game, and every at-bat as an opportunity to grow.

His advice to fellow young athletes? Keep perspective, stay determined, and always keep your head held high.

We’re cheering you on, Samuel! Keep rising! 👏⚾
