The NH Veterans' Assoc Campground and Cabins has been there for over a hundred years. It occupies prime waterfront-commercial land, pays no property taxes, and is a seasonal May to October use. It would be a big help to Weirs Beach and the local economy to remove all the Veterans' historic seasonal buildings to a new location somewhere in the area, and replace it with a mega-multi million dollar, destination casino that attracts casino tourists all year round. Just picture Donald Trump walking up and down Lakeside Drive welcoming casino visitors to the new Trump Weirs Beach.......i.e. creating jobs, and paying local and state taxes....and hopefully for the Donald....it won't be a windy day!

So what gives you or anyone else the right to come in and kick out the NH Vets Assoc from a piece of "prime" waterfront they own so YOU can get more tax revenue? As I vet myself I take serious offense to the fact you apparently have no respect for an organization that represents those that have personally sacrificed for the very freedom you enjoy. As a disclaimer I am not a member, but now I think I will become one.
I'm glad they don't have to pay taxes because allows them to offer vets the chance to enjoy the lake where maybe that is the only option they can afford to take advantage of. If we can give handouts to people on welfare and illegals surely we can cut our ex-military members a little bit of a break.
