Killington in April

Hi folks,

A bit of advice from the collective masses out there please if possible.
I'm currently serving in the armed forces in a hot and dusty place, not returning to Blighty until ealry April. I'm looking at getting away for my yearly ski fix, but its obviously gonna be a late one.
I've checked out a few place on the net, and the one that has caught my eye so far is Killington in New England.
Can someone please pass on any info they have on this area. I'll be new to skiing in the USA having been in the Alps for many years.
Is this a good place for snow at this time of year, is the skiing any good? any nightlife to be had??
Basically anything you've got would be great, or any alternatives for mid april will be looked into.

Many thanks

John
