The Lakeshore Chinooks have announced the name of their new mascot before beginning their first season as a member of the Northwoods League. Fans submitted over 330 name ideas for the mascot.

The voting was narrowed down between the top three submissions: King, Gill and Sammy. After more than 800 votes, “Gill” was the winner by just a seven vote margin!

Gill and the Chinooks open their inaugural season on Wednesday, May 30 in Green Bay against the Green Bay Bullfrogs. Their inaugural Opening Day at Kapco Park will take place on June 4, when they host the Eau Claire Express.
