Does Roger Penske own Deer Valley?
In 1987 Roger Penske became a partner in Deer Valley Resort. Roger and his wife, Kathy, and their son, Roger Jr., had been the owners of Stein Eriksen Lodge since its inception. Roger Jr.’s involvement in the business was limited, but he was involved in a number of other ventures. He was the president of a company that owned and operated a ski resort in Colorado, as well as an investor in several other ski resorts.
In the early 1990s, he became involved with a group of investors who wanted to build a resort on the banks of Lake Tahoe in California. The group was led by a man by the name of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who was also the chairman and chief executive officer of Standard Oil of New Jersey at the time. It was at this time that Roger Sr. became interested in buying out his father’s interest in Stein.
At the same time, the Rockefeller family was looking for a way to diversify their holdings in oil and gas. One of their options was to buy out the remaining shares of Stein in order to create a new company, which would then be able to take over the Stein holdings.
