State park system earned more this summer than last

The Union Leader's Paula Tracy takes a look at revenues for the state park system.
Sunny weather from July 1 through Labor Day helped the state park system make more money this summer than last.

The division took in almost 5 percent more in operations income and almost 12 percent in retail sales, while its campgrounds saw an income hike of almost 3 percent, said Ted Austin, director of parks and recreation.

While occupancy at the state parks was down 1 percent from last summer's number, the income generated was slightly higher, about $60,000 more than the past summer's $2,078,048.
