Motocross Invades Swain Ski Slopes

Swain, New York -
Swain Resort is all set to host an inaugural motocross event on its
pristine ski slopes. The popular winter ski retreat has been
transformed into a motocross playground. Swain Mountain Motocross spans
the width of several ski slopes and offers some of the most unique
terrain, views, and scenery of any track found on the east coast. On
Track Creations' Jesse Milley was commissioned to carve the beautiful
ski resort into a full blown national caliber motocross track. Milley
added, "This was one of the most unique and beautiful landscapes to
work with and everything came together perfectly."


The track is an optimal one mile in length and can be seen from the
lodge and viewing area below. The ski lift will also be in operation,
taking spectators over the track and up the mountain to an upper
viewing area offering spectacular views of the track and surrounding
areas. The Shawmut Pub and Slopeside Bar & Grill will also open
their doors to welcome racers and their families offering up live music
and great food at each event.


The first event kicks off August 7th and features an appetizing $3,000
pro purse! Amateurs and pros alike will love this brand new
feature-packed facility and should offer up something for all skill
levels. Each event will feature 28 classes for riders ages 4 and up!

fees arejust $10 per person. Gates open on Friday and stay open from
2pm till 11pm before each event. Gates open at 7am on race days.
