I understand the projected reopening of Hunter’s Shop n’ Save will but sometime in June. This is wonderful news! Anyone have current pictures of its status? We are Wolfeboro area islanders and miss it terribly.

I don't have any pictures, but I can tell you that the level of activity on the site is crazy busy. There are pieces of equipment everywhere, construction workers everywhere, and all aimed at the some-time-in-June opening date.
The "new" store is larger than before, and will be equipped with the latest and greatest technology available. Yes, everybody is anxiously awaiting Opening Day. |

This is the only one I found but I know there are some after this. Try "Wolfeboro Community Group" for more and " You Know You're From Wolfeboro, NH if" also because I thought there were some there.

Daniel Craffey, who's the owner, has been posting consistently on the Wolfeboro Community Group Facebook that he expects the grand opening to be on June 20. The most recent post I noticed was April 1: “June 20, see you there.”
This is the link to the group but you have to be a member to read the posts: https://www.facebook.com/groups/830382647075496 |

We just went by. It looks great, doesn't it? Maybe even better than it does in your pictures.

I was by yesterday as well and it does look fantastic!
The only downside I see is that I believe available parking will be an issue during peak business times in July and August. I don't believe enough parking spaces will be available if the new Hunter's store does more business than the old Hunter's store did. Available parking spaces likely will also hurt Walgreens (as well as Hunters) during peak periods. |

Well I am not real good with math but I don't know how you can have the same amount of parking if the new building is longer and wider than the previous old A&P building (Hunter's). Unless the lot size has grown you most definitely won't have "more parking spaces than it did before"........ The month of July will be the real test! |

Yes. Because they moved it closer to the road. They had to get special exception for the building because in the downtown area buildings are supposed to be 5' from the sidewalk and it was set back a lot further with the parking lot in the front.

Sorry no pictures, but drove by yesterday and the parking lot is paved and striped. Some signage is up, but it's not quite 100% yet. I noticed they put up big "Wolfeboro, the oldest summer resort in America" lettering on the white panel on the side of the building between the loading dock (walgreens corner) and the front entrance. Looks like the sign at the town line on rt 28.

We saw the power truck there today hooking up electricity. That has to be a good sign, right?
