YOUTH GIRLS BASKETBALL CONCESSIONS MANAGER NEEDED!!! Kettle Moraine is looking for a reliable, organized individual to serve as Concessions Manager for LCGBA league days. This is a paid Kettle Moraine School District employee position, not a volunteer role. Applicants must be 16+ and pass a general employment background check. This could be a great opportunity for a high school student with a strong sense of responsibility, an interest in business or involvement in DECA, as well as an adult looking for a part-time opportunity. The position pays $16/hour and requires availability from 7 a.m.–5 p.m. on Nov. 8, Nov. 22, Dec. 6, Dec. 13, Dec. 20, Jan. 17, Jan. 24 and Feb. 7, along with some weekday time to prepare for league days and coordinate with the KM Booster Club.
The Concessions Manager will work directly with LCGBA League Director Amber Finger and will be responsible for ordering and maintaining food and beverage inventory, coordinating volunteer sign-ups and tracking volunteer hours, maintaining accurate cash and credit card records, preparing and serving food, and learning to operate equipment such as the slushie maker, pizza oven, popcorn machine, hot dog steamer and coffee makers. A key part of the role is managing volunteers on game days by communicating with new volunteers, assigning roles and helping ensure the concessions area runs smoothly throughout the day. This is a great opportunity for the right person to develop valuable communication, organization and leadership skills while gaining hands-on experience in a busy business operation.
