• Concession Stand Guidelines

    All Class I, II & III groups must submit an Application for Use of Concession Stand by Class I, II& III Groups in order to use the Concession Stand.

    Applications should be submitted to Nora Rosenbaum (nrosenbaum@umtsd.org) in the Facilities Department. Approval of requested dates will be provided by the Facilities Manager. If required, the Food Services Director will arrange for a certified food service staff member to be on site, and determine any fees for use. A confirmation letter, and if payment is required an invoice will be sent to the identified responsible party listed on the Application form.

    Staffing and Fees would be as follows:

    Full Use Option: The cost of a certified food service staff member, billed at the current hourly rate ($42.00
    per hour) and a minimum of one-hour fee for custodial support will be billed to the group.
    Examples of full use include: use of the fryer, grill, coffee-maker, refrigerator, freezer and any electrical outlets, etc. A food service staff member must be present for the entire time the concession stand is in operation to supervise those operating the equipment. See clean up requirements below; failure to properly clean the equipment and remove all food items may result in additional penalty fees.

    Partial Use Option: A clean up charge of one-hour (minimum) custodial support fee will be assessed.
    This option expands on the items in the No Use/No charge category (below) but does not allow for
    use of any electric or kitchen equipment. For example: expanded use at this rate permits the sale
    of soft pretzels, boxed pizza and pre-made coffee purchases from an outside vendor. See clean up
    requirements below; failure to properly clean the concession stand and remove all food items may
    result in additional penalty fees.

    there be no use of equipment or electrical outlets. Items for sale must be pre-packaged in their
    entirety. An example of food and beverages permitted would be as follows: Individual bottled
    water, Gatorade, canned soda, wrapped candy bars, sealed bags of chips, and sealed bags of nuts,
    gum, pre-packaged food items such as individually-wrapped commercial packages of pastries or other
