CENTENNIAL GRILL Profile
The Centennial Grill operation is located inside Centennial Beach. Centennial Grill is supervised by the Aquatics Manager and employs approximately 25 part-time/seasonal staff. Current staffing includes a part-time Food and Beverage Manager, Shift Supervisors, Grill Cooks and Concession Attendants. In 2025 a restructure of staffing is proposed that will move the Food and Beverage Manager from a part-to full-time position. The plan anticipates the Food and Beverage Manager would be responsible for all concession operations throughout the District including the Paddleboat Quarry and golf operations. The Centennial Grill menu includes many food and beverage options ranging from full meals to snack
items. Soft serve ice cream continues to be the top selling item at the Grill, making up approximately 24% of the overall sales. ICEE frozen beverages comprised 10% of total sales, and chicken tenders remain a popular entree item. In August 2024, Centennial Grill replaced the soft serve ice cream machine with an updated model and transferred the current machine to the Paddleboat Quarry Rentals. Sales from online ordering represented 1.5% of the total sales. Concession sales exceeded budgeted revenue by 3.5% or $10,187. As we saw increases in sales, the Grill is projected to achieve a surplus of $75,700 which is a 15% increase or $9,700 over the 2024 budgeted surplus.
In 2025 the Centennial Grill menu will be adjusted based on past sales data, and pricing will be increased on menu items to offset operational costs associated with the impacts of minimum wage increases and food costs. The kitchen will be purchasing much needed equipment such as new deep fryers, a grill grate, heat lamps, and floor mats. Centennial Grill will continue to offer ICEE frozen beverages due to its popularity in the past two seasons. The District will discontinue online ordering in 2025 due to declining online order sales over multiple seasons. This will allow staff the ability to better serve customers at the service windows. Centennial Grill is budgeted to achieve a surplus of $42,780 in 2025.
