Bill Swain Quotations

Seth wants this to be an interactive experience. He wants fans to see the intricacies of snowboard-cross because the more you understand the sport, the more you appreciate its appeal.

He really wants to make this event his first public appearance in Maine. We just love him here and he will get a real hero's welcome.

We get a huge crowd of people that come, but the slopes never get too terribly crowded because a lot of people just come to hang out and kind of celebrate the change of the seasons outdoors.

We'll have many trails that will get a double groom.

This whole event will offer fans the chance to hear from Seth, ask questions and then ride the course with him to learn more about the sport. We all couldn't be at the Games so Seth is bringing the games to us.

The timing of this weather is a little unfortunate.

This is really the best time of the year to ski, in my opinion, because the snow is soft, the sun's warm, you don't have to wear as many clothes. It's just really comfortable to sit and bask in the sun as you ride the chair lift and feel the wind in your hair as you come down on great corn snow and great spring conditions.

The weather has been unusual to say the least.

I'd say we're 10 percent ahead of where we'd normally be.
