About Lewis A. Clark Insurance Agency LLC
Family Owned Since 1966
More than 50 years ago, Lewis Clark Insurance Agency was founded by the Clark Family in Newark, Ohio, with a mission to make a difference in Licking County and beyond. Today, we are proudly owned and operated with the same focus founder Lewis Clark intended: treating your family like our own.
Over the years, our family has become known for our:
- People-first service
- Fun-loving culture
- And commitment to the community
Putting People First
Lewis Clark was a man of his word. Yet, his actions spoke much louder. Lewis (Butters), was known for his caring heart and genuine love for people. He believed that if you lived by the golden rule and were there when people needed you the most, you would have a fulfilling life. That’s why his business ventures focused on being a part of people’s daily lives.
Growing up, Agency Owner Cyndi remembers watching her father (Lewis) and mother (Emilee) serving others in their little grocery store, Clarks Grocery. After seeing a need among customers for additional services, in 1966 he decided to become a licensed insurance agent, working out of the back office in the store between pumping gas and bagging groceries.
As Lewis Clark Insurance was established, so was the Lewis Clark Commitment, the philosophy of hard work and love. The agency has stood fast in its dedication to making sure every client feels both when they walk through our doors.
As our family has expanded, so has our offerings and footprint. In 2021 we opened a second physical location in Mount Vernon to expand access to affordable, reliable insurance options in rural Ohio. We are excited to make a large impact for Central Ohioans.
Atmosphere Unlike Other Businesses
At Lewis Clark Insurance, we care deeply about our clients, staff and their families. We bond over photos of grandkids, vacation planning and Ohio sports while remaining dedicated to the work at hand. We listen to our client’s needs, ask questions that get them thinking about protecting their life and future, and provide recommendations that we’d share with our own family.
After most calls, you will hear our agents end with “be careful out there” or “take care of yourself,” not because of their training but because of their people-first personalities. Living out the Lewis Clark Commitment is second nature for a team dedicated to hard work and serving others while having fun along the way.
Giving Back is in our DNA
At Lewis Clark Insurance, we care about the causes you are passionate about. That’s why we are deeply aware of and look for ways to address our community’s most pressing challenges, from hunger to pet rescues and anything in between.
Every year, we host events and initiatives to give back to the community that has given so much to us.
Our referral for a cause program has provided donations to local nonprofit organizations each year. For each valid referral received, we donate $10 to a cause that matters to you each quarter. To date, we’ve supported the Licking County Humane Society, Heartbeats, Licking County and Knox County Food Pantry, The LookUp Center, Esthers Place of Grace Maternity Home in Licking County, Licking County Coalition of Care and Place 4 Grace in Knox County.
And, don’t forget to join us for special community events throughout the year, including:
- Flag exchange in June (bring in your old American flag to exchange it for a new one for free)
- And our Santa’s workshop event in December, with donations going to the food pantry
