Honest, dependable,reasonably priced and professional handyman services. Not talking about the single construction worker who is moonlighting but a professional company that will provide services for small to medium size jobs.

Yeah, wouldnt that be nice but lets face the real world here. For those of us who are old enough we remember such places as Freedomland in the Bronx and Palisades in NJ. Some of us old people even remember the Worlds Fair. The problem with these places is that they can be open only during the summer and spring. Why did Disney locate their parks in nice warm areas..because they can keep them open all year round.
It's not economically feasible to build anything here that cant be open all year round...it does amaze me though that Splish Splash can survive but they do a tremendous business during the summer...but wait for a few summers in a row when it rains every weekend..they will be hurting or out of business.

Something for teens. There's really not much for them to do here (except go to the mall, movies or bowl).

Definately a Chickafila!!!!
We have a nice aquarium and waterpark, but we don't have a cool amusement park (Adventureland is a joke).
It would also be nice to have some nice hotels out East on the beach that aren't gross.

Many good ideas here. I definitely appreciate the feedback. However, there are some ideas such as water parks, Disney World, etc. which would be multi year projects and are out of our economic feasibility. But we still love hearing your ideas and would like to continue to hear more.


Thanks again
