It seems to be that there are two separate groups involved in promoting the Community Center. The first is Friends Of The Moultonborough Community Center; this is a nonprofit corporation formed in NH.

The second is The HUB Moultonborough Community, Activity and Aquatic Center. The HUB recently changed the pretentious “Centre” to “Center”. As best I can tell, the HUB is not registered with the NH Secretary of State. It appears from the HUB webpage that donations go to the Friends of the Moultonborough Community Center. See

The HUB webpage describes the HUB as “The HUB Community Center Working Group is comprised of six private citizens brought together by Mark Borrin and Kim Johnson to establish a focus on a needs-based approach to design, construct and equip a town owned Community center in Moultonborough.” The HUB webpage also states that “The group was formed privately as an off-shoot of the 2021 town meeting Article #16 – an article to create plans and cost estimation for building a Community Center in Moultonborough. The group has worked privately and has been presenting its findings to the Moultonborough Select Board periodically.”
So what entity got the approximately $23,000 to fund the estimate? Did the Town pay for it directly or did the money go to The Friends Of The Moultonborough Community Center or the HUB? Seems to me it should be easy enough to track the expenditures from whatever account it was disbursed.
