Cheetahs Staff Moves On

CRESTWOOD, IL - The Cook County Cheetahs announced today that their entire
remaining staff - General Manager Chuck Heeman, Director of Administration Pat
Rusthoven and Director of Stadium Operations Michael Conrad - will not be
returning for the 2004 season.

"With the impending changes in ownership and a new direction with the club,
Pat and I have been told that our services won't be needed with the new
organization," Heeman said. "The new owners had given us the opportunity to
re-interview at some point in the future, but we've declined that opportunity. Michael
(Conrad) had already informed us that he'll be moving out of the area by the
end of the month."

Heeman joined the Cheetahs in December 2001, and Rusthoven has spent five
years with the team. Conrad took over Hawkinson Ford stadium operations last
spring.

"It's been an interesting two years for me, and I do thank David Arch
(Cheetahs owner) for giving me the opportunity to work in baseball," Heeman said.
"It's certainly any new ownership group's perogative to bring in new people, and
we all wish them luck in accomplishing great things with the team. Working
with the staff we were able to put together this season has been a pleasure, and
I'll take good memories from that part of my Cheetahs experience."

The three staff members' last day of work will be September 30.
