1997 Lake Ann Park Concession/Boat Rental
The Lake Ann concession stand has concluded its operation lbr the summer. The
concession stand opened May 24 and closed August 24. Overall the summer operations
ran relatively smoothly. For the first time, the concession stand was not broken into this
summer. The vandalism around the shelter area was also minimal. The security system
installed last summer has curtailed a lot of this mischievous behavior. The security
system will continue to be armed throughout the year.
The City of Chanhassen has operated the Lake Ann concession stand/boat rental the past
5 years. During this time, the City has been lucky to clear a profit fi'om food sales and
boat rentals. You and 1 have talked about pursuing a group on a contractual basis to
operate the concession stand. The group may be a youth or civic organization. I would
like to discuss the pros and cons at our next Park and Recreation meeting.
GENERAL COMMENTS:
· hnprove accuracy of cash register tape receipts and daily inventory sheets.
· hnprove completing boat rental forms.
· Better regulate staffing levels, i.e. send people home.
· Look for new ways to attract better candidates for employment.
· Improve staff manual and outline goals and objectives.
· Simplify menu items, prepackaged items as much as possible.
· Investigate the possibility of buying supplies at Sam's Club.
· Add a slushie machine
· 20 oz bottled Coke products very popular.
· Sold 119 cases of pop - Coke Classic #1 seller, Sprite #2 seller, Evian water #3 seller,
Surge #4 seller, Diet Coke #5 seller, Power Aid #6 seller.
· Nacho's top selling item again.
