GDG- Water Park proposed for Gettysburg

[The Mills]

With 2 million visitors a year, I don't think it ever is going to stop until people stop coming to visit the battlefield.  People see 2 million visitors and instantly see $$$$$.  

Thanks
Andy

Dear Tom, 

Ok a deep breath here.. I realize I am "preaching to the choir" but man
when, where or if ever is this going to stop? 

I don't understand this!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

I am trying, TRYING to understand the thought process about this.. 

Look I know the area needs jobs. Ok that's a given... But where does the
encroachment on this historic place, this hallowed ground stop? 

This is getting really scary. Especially after being down there three weeks
ago and walking the Herr Ridge road and Longstreets Countermarch. 

McMansions popping up like d*mn mushrooms!! 

Sighhhhhhhhh 

Ok deep breath again.  Would some one PLEASE help me out understanding this
???

The front page of today's Harrrisburg newspaper has an article on proposed
200-acre indoor water park that would be larger than Hersheypark.
