Conneaut may be denied loan, miss opening day

Maybe Crawford County doesn't want my tax dollars for eating, Park addmissions, Camping?

Chuck, who thinks $150,000 loan is a no brainer verses revenue generated.

But is it a no-brainer? I thought the park was a non-profit trust, and as such wouldn't pay any taxes.

Yeah Jeff, I see that point, However while in Crawford County I am likely to purchase a meal or two, Fill up the tank ect. As well as a hundred thousand other people doing the same.

I guess my uncle was right, even though I told him it was going to open he did say the most likley won't. Hopefully it turns around, cause I need money ;) But who knows, they want to buy the park. The park asked my uncle to pay 150,000 to open it (loan or something) and whatnot, but he refused. So hopefully they will open one way or another.

Chuck is right. While they, you not only visit the park, but you feed your family, fill up the tank, maybe stay a night or two, visit other attractions. All of this brings money to local businesses, and in doing so, generates revenue for the locality.

I plan to email the county and explain that I hope taht they would reconsider and allow the park to get the funds needed to open, because I and a friend plan to go there in late June. We plan to stay the night there as well, so that would be two days that we would be spending money in their county.

Conneaut Lake Park Is the Anchor to the Sucess of Conneaut lake PA. The Local economy get's the Majority of it's Money thru it's 4 month Vacation Season. The Area will not survive with out the Park Being opened. Sure they have a great Natural lake with alot of Cottages but the Draw to the Vacation Rentals is the Park. If the park lost money due to repairs then those same repairs won't need done this year. The park is a small jem for North Western Pennslyvania and should be opened.

I try not to post across forums (out of consideration for the respective webmasters), but this little tidbit was too hot to hold on to....so here goes:
