Cravings is the new Mel Hegland concession operator
Cravings Late Night Food in Air Ronge is the new concession operator at the Mel Hegland Uniplex.
Business owners Jamie and Charmaine Charles have already operated the concession three times in the last month including two exhibition games, as well as the Ice Wolves home opener last weekend. The concession will also be open during hockey tournaments, events and when the curling league gets underway, but Jamie Charles said it’s been a slow start to the season.
“It’s my first time doing something like this,” he said. “We have the restaurant and it’s extremely busy all the time there. We’re also busy with catering. I’m not sure why I decided to take on this side challenge, but it seems to be doing alright so far.”
During the Ice Wolves home opener, the concession was offering the basics like burgers, fries and drinks, but Charles noted he wants to start offering healthier choices throughout the season. He also added he’s working with the Ice Wolves who operate the concession upstairs to ensure the two sides aren’t selling the same products.
