But I can’t find that post anymore (deleted? also possible that my memory is off). If that were true, I would have thought it would have closed already. It is also odd that it was publicly disclosed that the buyer’s contingency was to have expired months ago (the allegation was that Camp Belknap’s challenges at the planning board were to just delay the transaction past the expiration of the contingency so the Camp could swoop in and purchase the property).

Based on suggestions from one of you (thanks!), I made a donation to Belknap, and just got a thank-you note saying that they were still fighting. Separately, I did not find the Forum posts from the prospective buyer to be credible, so I would take his comments with a grain or two of salt
