THE QUESTION:

“What do you think of Killington’s plans to build a village?”

Brian Wolfe

“I guess I’ve got mixed feelings about it. A big village would be great, but I do wonder about it changing the character of the area. But this place is so big you could get away from it if you wanted to by going to Bear Mountain.”
– Brian Wolfe

Chad Allen

“I don’t ski for the resort scene, I like simplicity. Mad River Glen is more my scene, but I wonder about how a big village would fit into this area.”
– Chad Allen

John Swingler

“The thing about villages, whether they’re at Whistler or Stratton, is they make you feel like you’re corked up. Like you can’t walk through without needing to stop in some shop, bar or restaurant. At least with the way Killington is now, you can scoot down to Rutland.”
– John Swingler
