The Township of North Huron invites all those interested in operating the Blyth Arena and Community Centre Concession Booth to submit their proposal.  This invitation is open to service clubs, individuals, local sports groups, private businesses, and not for profit organizations who desire an opportunity to provide this service.

Working closely with the staff at the Township of North Huron you will provide all the services to operate the Concession Booth. This includes supplying food, supplying equipment, providing staffing, cleaning, inventory control, and reporting any maintenance issues to the staff.  The equipment owned by the Township of North Huron in the booth will be available for use. Future repairs or replacement of capital equipment in the booth will need to be addressed in the proposal.  Any inspection costs during the lease (i.e. hood fire suppression) is an expense to the person/group operating the booth.

The Township will provide a basic minimum schedule for hours of operation that is required for the booth to be open to provide service to the patrons.  You are required to provide service at these times; it is at your discretion to extend these hours of operation if you choose.  Note that service is not permitted during hours when the facility is closed.

Ice season begins on or around October 1^st each year and ends either mid or end of March each year.  Please indicate in your proposal if you plan to operate the booth for any special events that are not during the ice season in Blyth. 

This is an excellent opportunity for any community organization or individual to raise funds.  The Township stipulates that it requires one lead contact for the operations and management of the booth.  This person will be identified by the organization or business and will be the only point of contact for the Township.
