Every good story has a great beginning...

In the summer of 2007, our family had just made a massive move from Florida to the beautiful Ozarks in Missouri. We were in a rental house waiting for the moving dust to settle and Mike (with no workshop available to him) sat down at the table with our 4 kids to teach them to sculpt. Everyone had a cute project they were working on, something no doubt dear to their hearts. A little birds nest with eggs, a fearsome snake, a ....?, ... and of course a Jaws shark.

As Mike neared the end of his project it became apparent that he would soon be out of clay before he was finished. Each kid decided that dad MUST complete his sculpt and therefore kindly, and selflessly, donated their clay.

An amazing thing happened with that clay. With each little donation from each member of the Schultz family, a wonderful form took shape. It was to be the beginning of our family business that not one of us saw coming. Every Schultz was involved from the very beginning.
13 years later, the kids are grown and chasing their own dreams and it's just Mike and I keeping our American dream going.
​
It's a lot to be thankful for. We are here all these years later - 7 films, 42 different shark products, sold out to the tune of over 7000 pieces cast and shipped world-wide - all from that humble start and those tiny hands sacrificing... that's sharkcityozark in a nutshell.

Thank you Stef Schultz, Michael Jacob Schultz, Samuel Schultz, and Rachael Borman !!
