Engineering – Recreation
Laberge Group plans, designs, and oversees construction of park and recreational facilities.

Recreation
Their recreation services cover everything from conceptual site selection and master-planning through to construction oversight and long-term maintenance planning. They design outdoor and indoor sports facilities, walking and bike trails, picnic areas, pavilions, waterfront amenities, swimming pools, skating rinks, interpretive/nature centers, and more.
Uniquely, their in-house grant and funding specialists join the process from the start, helping communities identify funding sources, prepare applications, and manage funds — which can make large recreation projects financially feasible.
