Sunday River trims staff
By The Mainebiz News Staff
Sunday River resort is laying off 32 workers, about 10% of its year-round staff, in response to lower-than-expected revenues.
The cost reductions affect five full-time, year-round workers and dozens of seasonal and part-time workers, according to the Sun Journal. A spokeswoman for Michigan-based Boyne Resorts, which operates Sunday River, said upper management at the Newry resort has accepted salary cuts and the resort is reducing the hours available for workers in some departments. It will also have a one-week shutdown in June.
Last year, Boyne installed a $7.2 million Chondola, as part of a $14 million upgrade intended to expand the four-season resort's amenities.
