He said that he is proud to see how Powdr has evolved in the last five years, but said it is “clear that now is the right time for me to step down as CEO.” “I am confident that Wade, Jus- tin and Tim, and our teams and leaders across Powdr’s properties, will continue to protect and enhance the adventure lifestyle for generations to come,” he said.
