CRESTVIEW — Lifetime TV's reality series “Designing Spaces" is coming to North Okaloosa County to refurbish a Crestview area Afghanistan veteran's home.
Between Oct. 26 and 29, the show will renovate the home of Purple Heart recipient Tech. Sgt. Kevin Parke, his wife and five children in the Lake Silver subdivision.
Retired Marine Corps Staff Sgt. R. Lee “The Gunny” Ermey, known for TV and movie roles, will host the three-part episode.
The home's completed renovations will be unveiled to the Parke family in a private ceremony on Oct. 29, a media release from Military Makeover stated.
Mayor David Cadle said Crestview appealed to the series' scouting team. “They just thought they liked this community when they were scoping it out,” he said.
“This is the fifth time doing the series,” publicist Pam Steele-Unger said. “The producers of the show scout different places. They get recommendations from military groups and other organizations.”
“Military Makeover, R. Lee Ermey, and valued sponsors are dedicated to giving back to our military and assisting veterans and their families in need of improved housing solutions,” the release stated.
