You've got to like what Parrish resident Carmine DeMilio does for a living.
"My responsibility to all park patrons is to provide safe playgrounds and facilities as well as aesthetically pleasing parks and beaches," he said.
As property management grounds operations manager for Manatee County, those responsibilities include three beaches -- Anna Maria Bayfront Park, Coquina, and Manatee -- as well as 52 parks and playgrounds.
The New Jersey native had similar responsibilities in North Brunswick, N. J., during a 22.5 year career before moving to Manatee County about five years ago. Except that what he was doing in New Jersey was not quite as broad. There, he had responsibility for 23 parks and 17 playgrounds.
"This is a great state and there are great people here," he said.
The DeMilios rented when they first moved to Parrish, and ended up liking the community so much that they bought a home there.
Even though DeMilo has 27 years in the business, he says there is more to learn.
He recently earned national certification as a Park and Recreational Professional. All the better to help keep parks and beaches users safe and having a good time, he said.
DeMilio plans to next seek certification as a Park and Recreation Executive.
"The bar has been raised in the recreation and parks profession," he said.
He is particularly proud of the changing stations that are going up at Manatee beaches.
