This is my second time around living in the community of Christmas Lake Village. I choose to move back to the Christmas Lake Village about five years ago to raise my family.

I have been doing real estate for the past two years full time and I am a sales associate at Century 21 Towne and Country Realty in Santa Claus, Indiana. I am enjoying real estate very much.

Christmas Lake Village - Keeping Up With Technology

Jennifer Martin: Real Estate Agent in Santa Claus, IN

Here in Santa Claus Indiana ...
CHRISTMAS LAKE VILLAGE

Our Local Service provider (PSC - a.k.a. Perry Spencer Communications) has been working diligently on bringing fiber optic cables into the homes within Christmas Lake Village. In 2007, PSC vehicles were spotted throughout the village and this let the residents know that these crews were in fact - hard at work! I for one was keeping an eye on this and I look forward to seeing it all unfold.

2007 was the pre-installation work and 2008 is slated for the actual, engineering work to begin. Why do I post this? Well, Since I am an avid Internet user and would be LOST if I had to go back on Dial-Up, (no punn intended if you are on dial-up) I feel this is very important for folks to know if they are considering a move to Christmas Lake Village. They need to know that they aren't giving up these kinds of things because well --- we are Rural but we aren't "That" rural.

Our Village does not give up ANY amenities that are necessary for still doing business (even if you are only using your home as a weekend retreat).

So if Internet is important to you ---- put that concern aside! I live in the village and have DSL through PSC and will upgrade when the time comes. PSC also provides: Phone Service & Cable TV! Visit Them online at: http://www.psci.net.
