Jim Snowden has resigned from his position of Stipendiary Steward following 10 years’ service (7½ with the GBGB and 2½ with the NGRC). His last day will be Friday 30th September 2016.
GBGB Senior Stipendiary Steward Paul Illingworth said: “It’s disappointing to lose someone with Jim’s experience and knowledge from the industry. Jim has been an invaluable member of the team as is widely respected across the board by trainers and stadium staff alike. Jim spent many of his formative years working at several tracks round the country before joining NGRC 10 years ago. Everyone at GBGB wishes Jim a long and happy retirement, although he’s still got plenty of work to do before he goes in September!”
The position of Stipendiary Steward for the south west and South Wales is currently being advertised on the GBGB website, the Greyhound Star website and will appear in the next edition of the Calendar.
