Greetings,Welcome to the 2nd annual addition of the Gore

Mountain Region Directory. As you take a look through the publication I’m sure you will be surprised at the large number of businesses in the region as well as the wide array of things to do throughout the area.

We appreciate the support for the directory given by both our advertisers and the Town of Johnsburg Occupancy Tax funds in preparation of our directory.

You will note the members of the Gore Mountain Region Chamber are listed by category in the first section of the directory. In the back of the directory is a listing of all businesses and service groups in the Town of Johnsburg. Chamber members are listed in bold type in this section. We plan to update this directory annually. Any suggestions you may have for ways to improve future issues are welcome.

The Gore Mountain Region Chamber of Commerce is a vibrant growing organization. As we continue to expand our member services we hope you will take the opportunity to participate in chamber events. If you are not yet a member, consider joining us as we help promote the Gore Mountain Region‘s business-es and services to our visitors and residents through-out the year.

Sincerely,

Dave Bulmer, President

A Note from the Town SupervisorOver the last several years the Greater Gore Mountain

region has experienced significant economic growth even as the nation has struggled amid the greatest financial crisis since the Great Depression. Our main streets are dotted with more than a dozen new businesses. Our market is transitioning from seasonal to year round, from commuter to destination.

Our community is a diverse and growing one. While the world is fast learning about our marquis mountain and heart thumping white water, a glance around town shows a com-munity that is vibrant and self-motivated. A highly successful riverfront concert series, a new farmer’s market, art walks and cultural experiences associated with our tourist railroad await families taking a few days off in the mountains or maybe considering relocation.

Government too has been proactive here, adopting zoning ordinances that protect our small town identity while permit-ting needed growth. Infrastructure associated with resources such as water, recreation and emergency services has been enhanced for the future while taxes have been reduced.

The upcoming year will likely be the most exciting one in our community’s history. In a few months the full inter-connection between Gore Mountain and the historic North Creek Ski Bowl will be completed. In addition to rendering our ski area one of the largest east of the Mississippi, the long dreamed of connection will bring the mountain to Main Street. Our economy will grow by drawing from our heritage and our environment.

The stage is set for our region to move from its often described status as best kept secret to premiere destination.

Won’t you join us?

Sterling T. Goodspeed, Town of Johnsburg Supervisor
