Bowling at the Weirs was long before there even was a Funspot. I was just saying tounge in cheek that the Weirs has changed (although not in the past 30 years)

Ok, This was the 1st summer in a long time I did not make it to the Weirs. I missed going alot and here is why. I live in Queens, NY, we have no lakes which makes Lake Winni pesaukee special, I also do not have any arcades around here like they have in NH, the people are nicer up there than in NYC as well. I will be honest the Weirs is old and yes it is falling apart. What the Weirs has is charm and the beauty of the Lake, what it does not have is a paint job. I swear I do not think the Mount area has been painted in years which makes it look old. I also feel a new fence could be put on the boardwalk, since that green fence is rotted away. I also feel thats all it needs, people will come to the Weirs beacause, its peaceful, the beauty, the arcades, and the old fashioned charm of the area.If some people do not like it then dont come, I will be back there hopefully next Summer and I cant wait to see good old Weirs and its charm.
