"I HAVE ALL POSITIVE THINGS TO SAY ABOUT SWAT.  Our two daughters attended swat last year 2009.  The trip was very well organized and memorable.  Our oldest daughter was a rep and was given thorough information to represent the organization.  Both girls had a great ski vacation and made many friends.    Highly recommend SWAT to families considering a great high school memory."

"SWAT was an amazing experience. The slopes were awesome and the clubs were always playing great music. Andre Nickatina was definitely a highlight of the trip. All the counselors helped make the trip even better by having great attitudes. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone in high school."

"I have been going on the Swat El Nino trip to Salt Lake City, Utah for the past four years. This is a trip that was something that my friends and I looked forward to every year during our high school career. I believe that this is an amazing way to get away and have the time of your life with all your closest friends as well as the opportunity to ski/snowboard the some of the most prestigious and world renown mountains that the U.S. has to offer. Aside from the skiing the themed night events at Salt Lake's largest venue, Club Sound, provide outstanding light shows that back some of today's most popular artists and MCs, which have included Three Six Mafia, E-40, and Andre Nickatina."

It wasn't even just a snowboarding trip, it was a mini vacation with concerts, parties, and snowboarding all three of my favorite things. If I had the chance I would go on swat every single year.
