2005back2back.gifThe Canadians made the usual early off-season hirings to their front office last week, and one of the hirings was predicted for a while.  

Allan Bailey, Spiro Khouri and JC Fraser are now permanent members of the Canadians front office, Bailey coming in as Assistant Ticket Manager, Khouri as Group Sales Manager (taking over for Ben Ekren) and Fraser as Ballpark Operations Manager.

Bailey joined the Canadians in the ‘07 season, and was seen in the Ticket Office, as well as the Will Call table outside Nat Bailey’s gates.  He is a former McGill Red Bird, where he played baseball for five seasons.  He played 3B and pitcher in his time in as a Red Bird, and was a reliever from the mound.

Fraser was an intern in 2007, helping with the Stadium Operations.  A former advisor to the Nepal Tourism Board, he is certainly a great addition to the club.

Khouri was a Game Day intern this season, putting on the contests you all saw from the stands, which is a key part of your Nat Bailey experience.  He is now the Group Sales Manager, hoping to attract groups of over 20 to our beautiful ballpark.  His hiring has been expected for a few weeks, and the Canadians have to be happy that he will be staying on with the team.
