Mequon, WI \u2014 After more than a decade of dedicated leadership, Lakeshore Chinooks General Manager Eric Snodgrass has announced he will be stepping down from his role, with his final day set for June 8. Snodgrass has been with the Chinooks since the earliest days of the franchise, helping shape its identity and guiding it through 13 remarkable seasons in the Northwoods League.<\/p>\n
\u201cEric has been the heartbeat of the Chinooks organization from the very beginning,\u201d said Chinooks Owner David Casey. \u201cBefore the team ever played a game, Eric was laying the foundation\u2014building relationships, shaping our brand, and committing himself fully to the success of this franchise. His dedication, professionalism, and love for the game have left an incredible mark, and we\u2019re all better because of it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Snodgrass began his journey with the Chinooks in 2011, playing a central role in the team\u2019s launch in 2012.

\u201cI am truly grateful for the past 14 years with the Lakeshore Chinooks, \u201c added Snodgrass. \u201cThere have been so many wonderful relationships that have come from my time with the Chinooks. I can\u2019t thank everyone enough for their support over the years. The front office staff, interns, players and coaches, host families, partners, season ticket holders, the Northwoods League, Concordia University. They have all played an important role in my career and our day to day operation. I leave the organization with a lifetime of memories. And thank to you to the ownership group for this support.\u201d<\/p>\n
As the Chinooks prepare for the next chapter, current Assistant General Manager Arie Bankston has been named Interim GM. Bankston has worked closely with Snodgrass over the past several years, playing a key role in the day-to-day operations and development of the Chinooks\u2019 front office.<\/p>\n
\u201cArie has grown tremendously during her time with the Chinooks,\u201d said Casey. \u201cShe understands our mission, she cares deeply about our players, interns, and fans, and she\u2019s ready to lead. Eric has laid a tremendous foundation, and I\u2019m confident Arie will build on that momentum in the seasons to come.\u201d<\/p>\n
