An email from a buddy who's a patroller there:

Sad news.

Dear Swain Patrollers,
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closing of Swain Resort.
The business will be listed for sale with the intent of finding an owner
who will re-open for the 2009-2010 snowsports season. Should no buyer be
found by August 15th the assets will be sold and the business will wind
down in an orderly fashion. As of close of business April 3rd Ski and
Snowboard Area Management, LLC will have no employees and the office will
remain closed. All summer activities and events are canceled.
Any remaining personal equipment can be picked up Saturday April 4th from
9 am to Noon or Monday April 6th from Noon to 7pm. If you cannot make
either time please make arrangements by sending an email to
info@swain.com.
If you are asked, season pass holders who purchased for the 2009-2010
snowsports season will be contractually protected for their purchase in a
sale agreement with any new ownership. Should the business not sell, full
refunds will be issued after August 15th.
I personally ask each of you, if you do care about the future of Swain
Resort, please let me know if you are willing to assist voluntarily in any
way over the summer should an opportunity to re-open present itself.
We will be sure to pass on further information and updates and visit
swian.com for public announcements.
Sincerely,
Eric Stearns
