About Us

Brothers Brian and Adam Gagnon, along with their wives, Erin and Ashley, are proud to lead the next chapter of Summer USA. As lifelong locals of the Lake of the Ozarks, Brian and Adam have a deep connection to the community and its adventurous, laid-back spirit. Their journey with Summer USA began years ago when they worked at the store during high school and college, developing a passion for the brand and its mission. Now, as owners, they are honored to carry on its legacy.

Alongside their experienced General Manager, Brandie Amos, they have created a welcoming space where customers feel right at home.

Their goal is simple: to offer high-quality, lake-ready gear that reflects the genuine warmth of the community. They look forward to welcoming customers into the Summer USA family!

Our Mission

At Summer USA, our mission is to celebrate and share the lake lifestyle through quality apparel that reflects the spirit of adventure, relaxation, and connection. As a proud member of our lake community, we are dedicated to fostering a welcoming place for locals and visitors alike, where memories are made, stories are shared, and the beauty of lake life is embraced.  Whether you are exploring for the weekend or a lifelong resident, Summer USA is here to help you feel and look your best while embracing the “Lake Life”

Our History

SummerUSA has been a part of Lake of the Ozarks for over 40 years, but it all started in 1982 when Joe and Janelle Page opened Ozark Sun. In 1996, they rebranded as SummerUSA, turning it into the go to shop for surf, swim, and lake-ready style.

Now, as of 2025, Brian and Erin Gagnon and Adam and Ashley Gagnon are excited to carry on that legacy. With longtime retail expert Brandie Amos as General Manager, we’re bringing fresh energy while keeping the same SummerUSA vibe locals and visitors love.
