Bob McDonald Contributes To Recreation Management’s “Creating Action-Packed Places” Article

Bob McDonald is proud to be featured in the latest issue of Recreation Management magazine. Bob discusses the crucial role of early engagement and expert collaboration in successful community recreation projects leading with innovation and community-first approaches.

“Bob McDonald, CEO of OLC, said clients can benefit from getting a firm involved as early as possible for either new construction or remodeling. “Parks directors can rely on a third-party unbiased opinion that is going to be supported by the market and not fall prey to very loud but very small user groups that want specific things but won’t necessarily appeal to the masses and be difficult to cash-flow,” said McDonald. “Fact finding, feasibility and needs assessment help a community determine what’s needed and what they’ll use when the center opens. Then we develop the architectural program to respond to those needs.”
