The Bonita Springs, Fla. location will be the Baltimore, Md.-based private club planning and design firm’s fifth office. Executive Vice President Skip Avery will lead the new office’s activity.
Chambers, the Baltimore, Md.-based private club planning and design firm, has continued its expansion with the addition of its fifth office, located in Bonita Springs, Fla. in the Naples area of southwest Florida. The office, which opened on August 1, 2018, will be led by the firm’s Executive Vice President, Skip Avery, a well-known industry veteran with over 30 years of experience as a private-club general manager. Avery is also a Past President of the Club Management Association of America (CMAA) and an active member of CMAA’s Florida Chapter.
The decision is the result of strategic initiatives enacted by Chambers’ leadership team. “We have an incredible opportunity to aid the Florida private club market in its growth and development,” said Chambers’ President and CEO, Rick Snellinger. “Many Florida clubs are ahead of the curve with regard to private-club trends and we feel our thought leadership and expertise in helping clubs plan for the future are a perfect fit for this area.”
Chambers has deep experience in the various segments of the Florida market and is currently working with clients including Royal Poinciana Golf Club, Wilderness Country Club, Atlantic Beach Country Club, Suntree Country Club, and San Jose Country Club. “Florida clubs are unique, and our first priority is always to understand the individual culture of each and every one of our clients,” Snellinger added. “Having local roots in Florida will aid in this endeavor.”
Headquartered in Baltimore since 1899, Chambers began expanding its geographic reach specific to the private-club industry in 2013, with the acquisition of industry competitor CCI Club Design in Dallas, Texas. Since that time, the firm has opened additional offices in Minneapolis, Minn. and Washington, D.C.
Chambers’s new Florida office is located at 3301 Bonita Beach Road SW, Suite 110, Bonita Springs, Fla. 34134. The office phone number is 239.673.1790.
