Default Weirs brings back the simpler day

I have to agree that many of the kids of today prefer the faster pace of six flags or hampton beach, etc. But I visit the lake many times during the year, all seasons included, during the summer, there is never a parking place to be had at the Weirs, the arcades are packed with people, the food stands are busy with people buying and eating, etc.

As far as it being run down, I am not so sure I see that side of it, the arcade area has been recently painted, or at least it looked that way a couple weeks ago. It has a way of making you feel like you have stepped back in time. Kind of like Coney Island in New York where everything has stayed the same for many, many years. It brings you back to the simpler day when walking along a boardwalk was what was done.

Look at the Boardwalks in California, they are backed with people and they are no more modern than the Weirs, just larger.
