Craig Cimmons To Serve As Next Eaglecrest General Manager

The Eaglecrest Board of Directors is pleased to announce the selection of Craig Cimmons as the next General Manager of Eaglecrest Ski Area. Cimmons will formally be appointed to the role at a special Eaglecrest Board meeting on Thursday, August 15 at 5:30 pm.

“The Eaglecrest Board is very excited to welcome Craig to the position of General Manager,” said Mike Satre, Eaglecrest Board President. “We had two well qualified finalists for the position and the board feels that Craig will be a welcome addition to the ski area. We all look forward to the contributions Craig will bring to Eaglecrest and the community.”

Cimmons will take up his new role on September 30 to ensure a smooth and successful transition into his first winter season at Eaglecrest.

The General Manager is selected and supervised by the Eaglecrest Board. Following an initial applicant screening by the CBJ Human Resources Department, the Board Human Resources Committee interviewed candidates remotely before selecting two finalists for in-person interviews and assessments. As a finalist, Cimmons took part in a public interview with the full Eaglecrest Board—including a presentation on his view of Eaglecrest’s financial history—and a community meet and greet at the Eaglecrest Lodge. Cimmons will be paid an annual salary of $121,222.

Cimmons is currently employed as the Director of the Ski & Ride School and Community Engagement at Jay Peak Resort in Jay, VT, and he has served in that role since 2012. Additionally, Cimmons’ prior experience includes a variety of roles with ski and snowboarding education and other environmental education and adventure recreation. Cimmons holds a bachelor’s degree in Adventure Recreation from Green Mountain College.
