| Post subject: | Mount Rainier Scenic RR seeking General Manager |
Dear RyPN Members,You may recall that I posted the information for the General Manager position at the MRSR (www.mrsr.com) a couple of months ago. Unfortunately, this has been a challenging search and we have had a couple of offers fall through. I continue to feel that our package is competitive and we will also cover relocation expenses for the selected candidate. Please let me know if you, or anyone that know, might be interested or would like additional information. You may reach me at asherwoodgroup@qwest.net and I have provided a summary of the position responsibilities below. Thank you for your support!Allison SherwoodA. Sherwood Associates801-298-4449A.
