Re: Stabbed in the back by the GBPA
I sent a email to GBPA almost a month ago questioning reasoning to backing a resort/casino next to the battlefield and here was the response
Mr. Cupp:
We do appreciate you taking the time to let us know your thoughts. Like you, we initially had reservations about the proposed Mason-Dixon Resort, but after taking months to independently review the facts, we found the project does not represent a preservation issue. Our taking a positive supportive position is not something we take lightly. We are the oldest Civil War battlefield preservation association in the nation. Land we have secured represents one-third of the present day Gettysburg Battlefield. If this project would impinge upon the Battlefield, we would never support it---but it does not have such a potential effect. We looked at every aspect of this project before coming to the conclusion we did. We DO respect the opinions of others who feel otherwise.
With Kindest Regards,
