Red Mountain Park currently exists as a 1,108-acre tract of land formerly owned by U.S. Steel Corp.

Selected candidate will enjoy backing by solid financial resources, widespread community support, and a governing commission fully committed to the Park’s success - and yours. Proven management skills, communications talent, ability to establish rapport quickly and utilize the talents of willing staff and volunteers, along with growth-oriented visionary leadership will distinguish the candidate awarded this prized role.
