Run Camp Refreshment Options Likely To Change. Can You Say Jambalaya?

-->
Borgess Run Camp is eyeing an exclusive post-run refreshment deal with a nationally known chicken and biscuit franchise, starting in the 2015-16 season.  “I can’t wait!” says Refreshment Chief Peter Lenz, who has been part of the negotiations.  “I get so tired of hearing people say, ‘Is this all you’ve got?’” when he puts out oranges, bananas, juices, bagels and cream cheese.  Organizers refused to name the franchise until a contract is signed, probably in early March. The lucrative three-year agreement would provide spicy Louisiana-style cooking to campers -- primarily chicken, chicken tenders, wraps and sauces. When seasonally available, shrimp and catfish will be offered, as will jambalaya and red beans and rice.  “Just think,” added Lenz.  “People will come in to the Health & Fitness Center, smell that grease and say, ‘I can hardly wait to get back from my run!’”
