About this file

This file contains a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources for a four-year concession contract to operate the Camp Store and Beach Snack Bar at Chain O'Lakes State Park in Marshall County, Indiana. The concessionaire will operate a camp store (May through October, minimum Thursday-Sunday 10 a.m.-8 p.m.) stocking firewood, ice, groceries, sundries, camping supplies, gifts, apparel, and recreational items, and a beach snack bar (Saturday of Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day, minimum Friday-Sunday 12-6 p.m.) serving food, beverages, and snacks. The State provides designated buildings and equipment including coolers, refrigerators, freezers, prep tables, shelving, sinks, and restrooms. Bids are due November 2, 2026, with contract execution expected April 1, 2027. The contract term runs through December 31, 2030, with potential renewal under the same terms and conditions. Bidders are encouraged to contact Property Manager Sam Boggs at (260) 636-2654 or sboggs@dnr.in.gov to arrange property visits. All questions must be submitted at least seven days prior to the response due date and should be directed to Angela Settles at ASettles1@dnr.in.gov. Completed bids must be emailed to Angela Settles or faxed to 317-972-3275.

The fee structure consists of 10% of camp store and beach snack bar gross income and 20% of vending machine income, due by the eighth day of each month. Historical annual gross receipts range from approximately $243,000 to $456,000 over the past seven years. All proposals must include detailed pro forma financial projections covering calendar years 2027-2030, management and operational plans, staffing plans, pricing strategies, evidence of prior concession operation experience with professional references, and financing commitment letters from financial institutions. Bidders claiming Indiana Business, Indiana Small Business, Indiana Veteran Owned Small Business (IVOSB), or U.S. Manufactured Product preferences must provide supporting documentation. The operator is responsible for supplying all necessary equipment, employees, and materials and must manage utilities (electric, water, sewage, internet, telephone), snow removal, trash removal, building maintenance, sanitation, and janitorial services. All quoted prices must remain valid for 30 calendar days after the response due date. The DNR will evaluate proposals based on level of service to the public, adequacy of resources, consideration paid to the State, and commitment to developing the operation and facility.
