Vail Resorts said shareholders nominated five candidates for its Board of Directors after the nomination window closed Sept. 10, 2026. Oasis Management put forward former Disney CEO Robert A. Chapek, M. Ashton Hudson, Bryce Roberts and Olympic ski champion Picabo Street, while shareholder Gregory Syvert Meyer submitted a self-nomination. The nominations come as Vail conducts a search for an additional independent director, which it expects to complete in early 2027. The Board will evaluate the candidates and present its recommended slate in the company’s proxy statement, with shareholders not required to take action at this time.

Chapek's Disney track record might help with marketing but I worry it won't address rising lift ticket prices or local community concerns.
