PARKS & RECREATION FACILITY DESIGN
One of DMK's favorite projects to take on are those that contribute to the health and wellness of our communities. We take great pride in being able to design Parks/Recreation and their related facilities. Please see our featured projects below to see our latest contribution.
COMMITTED TO EXCELLENCE
PROJECTS
DMK is involved with several Parks and Recreational Facility improvements. Currently, we are working on ADA improvements in Shamrock Park right here in Venice. These types of improvements will help bring more families together despite their physical differences. Community inclusion is a shared value of both the surrounding Counties and DMK Staff.
CLIENTS
Throughout our decades of local experience we have built relationships within Charlotte and Sarasota County, allowing us to truly understand their mission and expectations. We've been able to build working relationships with related staff and look forward to our communities future improvements.
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
DMK is proud to partake in the beautification of our local parks. We are a part of the "Adopt-a-Park" Program ran by the City of Venice. Each year our company will set aside four days, one for each quarter, to pick-up Ruscelletto Park. To extend our values to others, we invite the public as well as our interns to come out and help us.
PUBLIC INPUT
Knowing the root purpose of these improvements, it's important to solicit public input. DMK is well versed with holding public workshops and gaining the public's perceptions, recommendations, or informing communities about proposed changes. Communication is imperative for all successful projects and we try to keep all stakeholders involved whenever it's needed.

SNOOK HAVEN
Snook Haven was a project of DMK's that was finalized in 2018. It was recently featured in the Venice Style Magazine (July 2022) in an article named "Stay Cool! -So many Ways to Enjoy Hot Summer Days" by Carol Bruyere. Among ways to stay safe while heading outdoors in Florida's summer months, they talked about the Myakka riverfront boat access and kayak launch that was designed by DMK Associates. Snook Haven also has additional parking designed by DMK for those who need to leave their vehicles and trailers during their Myakka River trip. There is something rewarding when you see these projects bringing joy to peoples lives. The park has other amenities such as available camping spaces and waterfront dining under Spanish moss-covered oak trees that provides an unforgettable dining experience. Not to mention great food!
