Officials at Odawa Casino in Petoskey, Michigan recently announced David Wolf, general manager since 2014, has resigned and will join a gaming operation in Illinois. Roger Borton, director of finance, has been named interim general manager at the property, operated by the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians.

David Wolf recently resigned as general manager at Odawa Casino in Petoskey, Michigan, operated by the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians. A spokesperson for the casino said Wolf will join Jumers, an Illinois gaming operation across the river from Davenport, Iowa. Meanwhile, Roger Borton, Odawa’s director of finance since 2010, has been named interim general manager until a new GM is hired.

Wolf joined Odawa as general manager in 2010. In the past four years, he managed numerous upgrades at the hotel, including a two-year renovation and switching to solar energy. In addition, he directed improvements at the property’s restaurants and parking facilities, plus the website redesign. In addition, during Wolf’s tenure the casino refinanced its long-term debt and the Odawa tribal government was able to expand programs and services as a result of casino revenues.

In a press release, Wolf said, “This is an exciting time for the casino. With summer right around the corner and two great concert series lined-up, Odawa Casino should be on everyone’s list to visit. The season kicks off with the sold-out Beach Boys performance. I leave the property in good hands.”

Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians Chairman Fred Kiogima expressed “chi miigwech” or “many thanks” in the Odawa language to Wolf. “On behalf of the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians and our tribal citizens, we extend our appreciation to David Wolf for his dedicated service, and wish him nothing but continued success in his future endeavors,” Kiogima said.
