State park restaurant is unnecessary

October 14, 2022

I believe that Cape Henlopen State Park should not add a full-time restaurant. We have summer concession at the bathhouse and snacks at the fishing pier. This will definitely change our state park forever; there are plenty of restaurants in the area. The ferry has a wonderful restaurant right before going into the park. We need better parking with painted lines. What will a restaurant do when the park closes before 11 a.m. during the summer months? I believe this will take away use of the state park for families that use its many resources.
