UNDER THE CHRISTMAS TREE

By Andy Flynn andy@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — Freight trains should be rolling along the Saratoga & North Creek (SNC) Railway tracks within the next two months, according to railroad officials.

It would be the first active freight train here in 23 years, said 28-year-old Justin Gonyo, a North Creek native who was hired in August as the railway’s general superintendent. He’s a fourth generation railroad worker; his father and grandfather worked on these tracks when the Delaware & Hudson (D&H) Railway owned them. Now it’s his turn. He feels the sense of history, and he’s glad to be a part of it.

“It’s really indescribable,” Gonyo said. “I don’t want to get corny or anything, but just to be part of the process of setting up the first shipment of freight down this line since 1989 is a pretty big achievement for me in my career.”

Gonyo’s railroad career is entering its fifth year, and thanks to his experience on the D&H and its parent company, the Canadian Pacific (CP) Railway, he’s ready to help the SNC’s parent company, Iowa Pacific Holdings, get some return on its investment. The company has already spent millions of dollars along the rail line since the summer of 2011, fixing tracks, setting up The Exchange at North Creek CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

andy@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — Justin Gonyo is carrying on a family tradition. He’s a railroad man.

Hired in August as the Saratoga & North Creek (SNC) Railway’s general superintendent, Gonyo is following in the footsteps of his father, grandfather and great-grandfather, who all worked for the Delaware & Hudson (D&H) Railway. In fact, Gonyo left a job at the D&H to take this job in his hometown

of North Creek.

“Grandpa was the last station agent to work here,” said Gonyo, sitting on a bench in front of the North Creek Depot next to the Hudson River. “He’s the last one to lock the door for the D&H. He was a trainman and a conductor. He was on the ore trains that came out of Tahawus.”

Grandpa was Robert Gonyo (19302005), who retired in 1983 from the D&H. Born in the Clinton County town of Beekmantown, he began his railroad career as a telegrapher and ended it as a station agent, just like his father.

IN THE GYMNASIUM

Great-grandpa was George Gonyo (1895-1963), who retired in 1952 from the D&H after 39 years. Born in the Clinton County hamlet of West Chazy, he ended his career as a station agent in Chazy, where he’d been for 22 years.

Dad is Tim Gonyo, who lives with his wife, Debby, in Queensbury. He was a trainman and conductor for the D&H, sometimes working on the freight line between North Creek and the Tahawus mine in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

He mainly worked on the Third Subdivision for the D&H, Schenectady to CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

Johnsburg board hires temporary justice

By Mike Mender

newsenterprise@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — The recent retirement announcement by Johnsburg Town Justice James French put the Town Board in a predicament at its board meeting Tuesday, Nov. 20 as it tried to decide how to proceed in replacing French.

The board had a few options, Supervisor Ron Vanselow explained, adding that he had mixed feelings about all the options.

The board could select someone to replace French right away. That person would need to immediately enroll in a week-long, statemandated justice training course that begins on Monday, Nov. 26. Once trained, the appointed justice would serve until Dec. 31, 2013. If that individual desired to continue beyond that date, he/she would need to file petitions and run in the November 2013 election.

The board could leave the position vacant and the state would assign a temporary jus-

tice who would fill in until the next general election.

The board could attempt to arrange a sharing situation with a neighboring municipality. Vanselow said the town thought it had a sharing arrangement with the Town of Chester but found out that it only applied to situations where a judge had to recuse himself because of some sort of conflict of interest.

Or the town could take more time and decide on a replacement and the appointee would begin serving after the next weeklong, state-mandated justice training course scheduled for some time in the spring.

In the interim, the state would have to assign a fill-in and given that there are four court jurisdictions in Warren County that are in the same position as Johnsburg, all attempting to deal with the retirement of a justice, Vanselow explained that the state would prefer the town to appoint someone sooner rather than later.

Some on the board expressed concern

about having to make a decision so quickly.

“Quite frankly, I don’t think we’ve had adequate time to consider this,” Councilman Arnold Stevens said.

Vanselow reminded the board that anyone appointed would still have to stand for election in a year.

“But they would have the power of incumbency,” Vanselow said.

After some additional discussion, the board coalesced around the notion of appointing someone right away.

The town had a formal letter of interest from Vincent Schiavone, who wrote of his experience working with the court system and also his tenure as a law instructor at the college level.

Both Stevens and Councilman Eugene Arsenault remarked favorably about Schiavone’s legal experience and his service to the town, particularly with the Youth Commission. Vanselow said he was pleasantly surprised by the extent of Schiavone’s experience working with the court system.

A second individual, Drew Hayes, attended the meeting and read his own letter of interest to the board. After reading the letter, Hayes explained that he doesn’t have any formal legal experience but that he is an Eagle Scout, has served on the Youth Commission and is a graduate of the Junior Leadership Program.

“I’m very active in the town,” Hayes said.

“And I love the law.”

After some additional discussion, Stevens put forth a motion to appoint Vincent Schiavone to the position of town justice to serve until Dec. 31, 2013 and the board approved the motion unanimously.

Vanselow urged Hayes to stay involved in service to the town and suggested he file petitions and run in the election for the town justice position. Vanselow offered to assist Hayes navigate the petition process if Hayes so desired.

The Johnsburg Town Board will meet next at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 4 at the Wevertown Community Center.

(about 200 years ago). However, recent research has indicated that atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) began to increase, albeit slowly at first, some 5,000 years ago, a phenomenon not seen in prior interglacial periods, and well before it’s more dramatic rise beginning around 1,800. Coincidently, new and more careful research on early farming practices has raised the strong possibility that early farmers cleared much more land per capita (often by burning) than did later farmers. Thus it may have been this widespread clearing in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East that accounts for this early rise in atmospheric CO2. Certainly forest clearing for wood, pasture and crops is among the larger alterations of Earth’s ecology that can be attributed to man.

If this new data holds up, it may mean that our Anthropocene Epoch will be said to have started some 5000 years ago. But given the evidence that the extinction of many large plant-eating mammals was likely at least a partial consequence of human predation beginning about 40,000 years ago perhaps it would be more logical to discard the Holocene Epoch altogether and place the start of the Anthropocene Epoch at least as far back as the end of the Pliocene Epoch.

In any event, we can be sure it will be some time before any renaming and dating of our current Epoch is generally agreed upon by geologists.

Viewpoint

The season of giving is upon us It’s a Charlie Brown Christmas I T

he stores are draped in color, the golden tunes of Bing Crosby ring through the air and houses are aglow with decorations. The holiday season is once again here.

With the season comes an increased concern for those around us who may need a hand. Most all of the holidays we celebrate in the final two months of the season are based on the tradition of helping those less fortunate.

One place that sees an increased need during this time are food pantries and emergency food shelves. There is a combination of factors that lead to this need, as families start to face colder temperatures and the decision of whether or not to use their paychecks to provide warmth or nourishment.

Not only are fuel prices higher than they used to be, but now food prices have also seen a rise with recent drought and market conditions.

We’re not talking about providing the extra’s here, but the basic food needed to maintain a proper diet from day to day. In a recent interview with the directors of the Willsboro and Essex food pantries, they said that they were making multiple trips up and down the Willsboro town hall stairs each day to get packages from the pantry to families in need. For them, a savior showed up in the form of two local businesses, as Champlain National Bank and NYCO combined to contribute $3,200 to the pantry. We commend these organizations for their service to the community.

We also commend those who contributed throughout the region during the recent Scouting For Food and U.S. Postal Service drives. Postal workers collected food to be sent to the New York City area, where the need is great after the devastation of Hurricane Sandy. Cub and Boy Scouts contributed to local food pantries, collecting on Saturday morning, Nov. 17, youth gave their precious Saturday morning time to help others. If you would like to help these pantries, contact your local town hall for hours and details.

Another way to help local food pantries is by stopping by and watching the annual CP Rail Holiday Train pull into town. The train will be coming through Friday Nov. 30, and making stops in Whitehall (2:30 p.m.), Ticonderoga (4 p.m.), Port Henry (5:45 p.m.),

Plattsburgh (8:15 p.m.) and Rouses Point (10 p.m.). Visitors are asked to bring nonperishable food items to the train station, then stay to enjoy music, events and a beautifully decorated train.

There are also those who are helping to make sure that families can provide gifts to their children in tough economic times.

Some may say that if you can’t afford gifts, then go without; or gifts are not what make the season. While gifts may not make the season, try to put yourself back in the shoes of a young child returning to school after the holiday break or seeing friends for the first time after Christmas morning. How would it feel to sit there and listen to all of your friends talking about their shiny new toy or show up dressed in new clothes while there was nothing under your tree? Not a pleasant thought.

The need continues to grow. In Elizabethtown, teachers at ELCS have found that their donations are no longer enough to fuel their Secret Santa Society, and so they are seeking the help of the community. They are accepting donations of toys, clothes and money through Dec. 14.

There are also those churches who are taking part in the Operation Christmas Child Program. Denton Publications and Families First of Essex County are partnering for the fifth annual Operation Boxed Smile Program. There is the Adopt-a-Family program at CVPH, Toys For Kids, the Marine Corps Toys for Tots program and many more.

Then, there are the familiar, “Red Kettles,” that accompany the annual American Red Cross donation drive. There are many who volunteer their time, standing in the cold, ringing a bell and giving a smile to everyone who passes by. We ask that you return the smile and some change any chance you get, whether one time or many.

Through these many chances to give, we can all find an appropriate way to help our neighbors and help provide everyone with a truly happy holidays.

This editorial is the collaborative opinion of a board comprised of Thom Randall, Fred Herbst, Shaun Kittle, Keith Lobdell, Stephen Bartlett, Andy Flynn, Katherine Clark and John Gereau. Comments should be directed to denpubs@denpubs.com.

n the most recent flare up an atheist group is accusing an Arkansas grade school of violating the constitutional rights of students by inviting them to a performance of “A Charlie Brown Christmas” at a local church. I fear we will continue to see more of these challenges to remove all types of community support for any activity with a religious overtone, going against the long held beliefs this country was founded upon.

Students at Terry Elementary School in Little Rock were invited to a performance of the show at Agape Church, a non-denominational Christian Church. Reportedly teachers informed parents in letters sent home that a school bus would shuttle children to and from the show, which would be performed on a school day.

“We're not saying anything bad about Charlie Brown,” said Anne Orsi, vice president of the Arkansas Society of Freethinkers, “The problem is that it’s got religious content and it’s being performed in a religious venue and that doesn’t just blur the line between church and state, it oversteps it entirely.”

According to the letter the teachers sent home, the students would need to pay $2 to cover the expense of the bus ride but students were not required to attend the production, according to the school district. A spokeswoman for the Little Rock School District said the district did not endorse any particular faith or encourage any specific religious activity.

One parent contacted the Arkansas Society of Freethinkers after receiving the letter.

The parent, who did not want to be named, said that although she could choose not to allow her child to attend, she was letting her daughter go to the performance for fear the girl could be singled out.

For a nation founded on religious freedom, a nation that has become more tolerant of many views and changes in society it seems odd to me to find religion under so much fire today. But it’s clear the nonbelievers and atheists have chosen to draw a line in the sand. Instead of celebrating the freedom to believe as each individual sees fit, we find a group putting up barriers to the outward beliefs of others. These

groups apparently want to change the One Nation under God to something very different.

Dan Alexander Recent studies Thoughts from have shown that Behind the Pressline while 46 million adults are unaffiliated to a specific religion they are religious or spiritual in some way. Two-thirds of them say they believe in God (68%). More than half say they often feel a deep connection with nature and the earth (58%), while more than a third classify themselves as “spiritual” but not “religious” (37%), and one-in-five (21%) say they pray every day. In addition, most religiously unaffiliated Americans think that churches and other religious institutions benefit society by strengthening community bonds and aiding the poor.

With few exceptions, the unaffiliated say they are not looking for a religion. Overwhelmingly, they think that religious organizations are too concerned with money and power, too focused on rules and too involved in politics.

It’s been said that when things look down, people look up and seek the help and comfort of their God. It will be interesting to see how these challenges to religion and the customs that will be playing out throughout the upcoming Christmas season will be further affected this year. A number of nativity events have been shuttered as a result of legal threats, but as we’ve seen throughout history, efforts to restrict certain practices or beliefs tends to have the reverse affect. It’s unfortunate that we go through these challenging periods of time, but like so many things we experience in life it all seems to be for a purpose in the end. Those of faith and those who chose a different path will hopefully look back on this time period as some type of turning point and however you chose to view these events, I hope we can all agree the discussions and outcomes will serve to strengthen our nation, our beliefs and our ability to be tolerant of each other.

December 1, 2012 Indian Lake Chamber News

The River Starts Here

By George DeChant

One of my favorite Thanksgiving traditions is when a family will be at the table and they go around and each will say something they are grateful for. So much so, I think I will take a moment here and list the many splendid things in my life.

First, I can’t mention it enough, I am very grateful for the News Enterprise for giving us space. Andy Flynn and the crew have been very accommodating and helpful. In fact this is a week late, but Andy said that would be OK and he would get it in.

There is very little media in the Indian Lake/Blue Mountain Lake/Sabael area and we can always count on the News Enterprise to put us in the best light.

Did I just mention light? Check out the lights in the Town of Indian Lake. All part of the Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce 7th Annual Indian Lake “Let There Be Lights” Holiday Lighting and Decorating Contest. Regardless how cold it may be out, holiday lights can always warm the cockles of your heart.

And, though there is no snow in Indian Lake as I write this, there is on Gore Mountain. They have been making snow for some time getting the mountain ready for the holidays. The Friday after

Time for the holidays in Indian Lake Thanksgiving is often White Friday at Gore.

The Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce has a packaging committee and one of the most receptive businesses to putting together packages to entice visitors is the Gore Mountain Ski Center.

Gore tries to work with the community in many ways. I have been in contact with Michael J. Pratt, General Manager at Gore, for Indian Lake Central School.

He has offered to come in and talk to students about career opportunities at the Olympic Regional Development Authority.

I would like to thank all the individuals in town who are working to keep the town solvent — from forming non-profits to writing grants to attending the various meetings. The writing is on the wall for Hamilton County and it isn’t good.

Fortunately we have lots of people with erasers and magic markers trying to rewrite the predicted future.

Many of these folks are Chamber Board Members. At a recent planning meeting a couple members got to talking about the various other boards they are part of and it seems at least one of them was involved with every organization in the area — from the Fish and Game Club to the Library Board.

While these folks are doing a lot of civic work and spend hours upon hours at meetings, a lot of it is probably very productive in that they are able to make various connections from one board to another. For example: if you are on the Library Board and the Theater Board and the Fish and Game Club wants to have a fish fry on a certain date, you know it might not work because the other two are

planning on Book and Theater Night. Or you know who should be contacted at different organizations to get an event on a calendar. And hopefully that person will send the event to the Chamber so we get it on our calendar.

The only down side is all the work those folks have to do adds up. I know one gentleman has to block certain days off, at his wife’s instance, so she can see him at dinner once in a while.

Indian Lake, like a lot of Adirondack Towns, has always had a lot of get up and go. The only problem is a lot of the get up and goers, have gone. So it turns out less and less people are doing more and more. This is where I make the plea for volunteers. If there is anything you have to offer, especially time, please call the chamber (648-5112) and give your name.

There is a need for all kinds of volunteers; from running the Winter Wonderland Craft Show to handing out brochures. We will make an effort to not overload you with duties, only what you would like to do.

I am grateful that not only have people been showing up at our bus tours, but also a couple of them have been interested in helping out. Like a lot of Chamber Events, the extra result is the networking. At the last one we had a member suggest that business could work together to order supplies, hopefully at a discount because the supplies would be bought in volume. Bright ideas like this can light the way for all of us.

A good example of this is the owners of Cedar River Golf Club & Motel. The Goldblatts have participated as hosts and as part of the touring fun. Now they are helping with packaging. This is great because how many communities the size of Indian Lake can boast about their golf course. The same can be said of Lenny Baglieri, owner of the Blue Mountain Rest; he has hosted, toured and now is leading our packaging committee, along with being the newest board member.

His ideas are so fresh that we haven’t even turned off the oven yet. I am not sure what that means, but he has some good ideas.

Everyone has to be thankful for new ideas. If you always do, what you always do, you always will get, what you always got. Unless we venture out and try new ideas, and accept they will fail from time to time, new adventures will not happen.

As the holidays approach we have lots to be thankful for in the Town of Indian Lake.

Question of the Month If you could choose any animal for a class pet, what would you choose and why?

Johnsburg Central Mrs. McKenna, Grade 2 “I would want a cat because we could play with it. They are good hiders so we could play hide and seek.” (Evan Wing) Johnsburg Central Mrs. Watson, Grade 3 Class “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a butterfly. It would be great for science. I would watch it eat and the class and I would feed it, observe it and then let it go.”

(Zachariah Morehouse) “If I could choose any animal, I would choose a dog. I want a dog to be our class pet because I grew up with dogs. Also, because I think they make great pets. I think that because I have a dog of my own.” (Aleesha Washburn) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a monkey, because it would be a good helper. It would help with math, science, projects, and even social studies. Even monkeys can help you on everything like homework. That’s why a monkey can be a great class pet. (Nicholas Millington) “I would choose a dog. I would bring my dog to school. Her name is Ilka, she is a good dog to bring in because she likes to play. Ilka likes to play ball with boys and girls. Ilka is my dog and she is a mother rottweiler. Everyone would like Ilka.”

(Harley Dick) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet I would choose an iguana because it would be a good science project to work on. We could study what it does and how its body parts might work. We could also learn how it can survive in the wild.”

(Madison Vaus) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a dog because it would be good and not bad at all. I love dogs very much. It would be a half boxer and half gray wolf, a tail that looks like a tail wolf and the whole other half of it is a boxer. I would play with him outside.” (Brianna Barrett) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a parrot because we could take turns feeding it. We could train it to get stuff for us like the eraser. It could be a job for us to take care of him. We could train it to do the pledge of allegiance with us and at recess it would do tricks for us.” (Drue Degroat) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a cub. They are cute. I like them because their eyes are cute.

They are so small. That’s what I like about a cub.” (Rodney Wolfe)

“If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a newt. I would want it because it is an amphibian. Amphibians can live on land and in water. Newts can be any color.”

(Madison Buck) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a tiger. It has stripes with my favorite colors, orange and black.

It also runs fast and has a long tail.” (Ian Heid) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a puma because they are strong, soft, and warm. They are beautiful and they have a cool roar. We could ride on him during recess.” (Samuel Porter) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose an elephant because if I had a water bottle and it had no water the elephant could hold the bottle in its trunk and bring it to the water fountain and fill it up.” (Gage LaMott) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a dog because dogs are smart and we could teach him to read to us. I want a dog so he can teach us magic tricks. We all could take him home everyday or the year. We could throw a dog bone up and see if he could catch it. We could teach him how to eat like a human. We could teach him how to write every word in cursive. He could be named Buford. He could be the best dog artist. He could be good a good math helper if we can.”

(Eli Burkhard) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a cat because it is a fluffy and it will not attack anyone. I would let people pet it. They could also hold it. They could even feed it. I could let my teacher dress it up.” (Nicole Brown) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a horse. Why? Because it is my favorite animal and a horse is very nice, kind, and beautiful. A horse has been one of the most handy animals for hundreds of years. It would go in battle and it would be used for lots of jobs. They would take jogs out of the woods. That is one of the jobs they can do! And that is why I would choose this animal for a class pet.” (Cassie Dunbar) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a giraffe. It could help us if there is a fire. He could help us get things in high places.” (Evin Morehouse) “If I could choose any animal for a class pet, I would choose a dog for a class pet. I like them because they are really cool and awesome. We would teach him new tricks at recess we would play with him. I love dogs.” (Ethan Dunbar)

Rafting guide pleads guilty

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK — Rafting guide Rory F. Fay pleaded guilty to criminally negligent homicide charges following the Sept. 27 drowning of a rafter.

Fay appeared at Hamilton County Court Nov. 26 and pleaded guilty to criminally negligent homicide, driving while intoxicated and third-degree aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle.

Hamilton County District Attorney Marsha Purdue said Fay agreed to a plea bargain and will face one year in jail and five years probation.

During his probation, Fay will not be allowed to drink alcohol or professionally guide, and must complete any recommended drug or alcohol rehabilitation Purdue said. Fay will also have to attend a victim impact panel and pay any surcharges relating to the case.

Fay will be sentenced on Jan. 10. He has remained at Hamilton County Jail in lieu of $50,000 cash bail or $100,000 bond.

Fay was charged after police determined he was intoxicated while leading a rafting trip where a patron, Tamara Blake of Columbus, Ohio, drowned.

Fay was guiding Blake and another passenger, Richard Clar of Columbus, Ohio, down the Indian River when Blake and Fay fell out of the raft. Fay was able to make it to shore. Authorities discovered Blake’s body 5 miles down stream in the Hudson River. Autopsy reports showed Blake’s cause of death to be drowning.

The company Fay guided with, the Hudson River Rafting Company in North Creek, also faces charges for reckless endangerment.

A state Supreme Court judge Friday, Oct. 19 officially prohibited the Hudson River Rafting Company and its owner, Patrick Cunningham of North Creek, from operating a rafting business until charges from the state attorney general have been addressed.

Purdue said Cunningham will go to trial the week of Jan. 14.

Cunningham could not be reached by press time. In the past, he has refused to comment on the charges brought against him or the Rory Fay case.

I

hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving spending with family and friends. We are so blessed.

Winter has arrived. Saturday was a windy blustery day. On Monday morning, I saw the sand truck go by.

That sure is another sign to get our shovels out and ready.

Sorry to hear about the death of Tina Hayes. She will be greatly missed.

Gordie Persons fell and broke his hip. He is in Glens Falls Hospital.

I took another ambulance ride on Monday with Afib. After being monitored and so much medicine my heart went back where it belonged and was able to come home. Thanks to everyone for their prayers and calls. ’Tis the season to mark your calendars for different events.

Freight trains from page 1 retail shop, and establishing passenger service and specialty trains between here and Saratoga Springs.

“I’m very happy to see their commitment to the overall well-being of the businesses in North Creek and the surrounding areas,” Gonyo said.

There’s a reason SNC General Manager Steve Torrico says “Freight is great.” That’s how the railway will make its money.

The Sanford Branch purchase alone cost $1.5 million. The SNC bought the 30-mile line between North Creek and the Tahawus mine from National Lead. This is the railway’s road to riches, so to speak. It leads to North River, home of the Barton Mines garnet processing plant, and to the old titanium mine at Tahawus, where tailings and granite are ready to be shipped out of the Adirondacks and put to industrial use.

To show Barton executives a good-faith effort, the SNC ran an “inspection” train from North Creek to North River on Aug. 8. In late October, the railway ran the first train all the way to Tahawus since the last freight train rolled along these tracks on Nov. 17, 1989, according to Gonyo.

“The tracks do need some work, but overall they’re in pretty decent shape for sitting for 23 years,” Gonyo said. “We owe a lot of that credit to National Lead for keeping the line somewhat clear, keeping it from being totally consumed by nature.”

While it doesn’t own the rail line anymore, National Lead still owns the Tahawus mine, and most of the

freight shipped out of there will be aggregates for construction.

“In the Adirondacks, we have almost unlimited access to high-friction granite, and because of the mining processes over the years, most of this stuff is broken down into a manageable size and laying on the ground and ready to be shipped,” Gonyo said.

High-friction granite is a hard rock used for road construction and rail bed construction. Due to its density, it has a lot of different industrial uses. The granite at Tahawus was “overburden” from the mining process.

“It’s the rock they had to remove to get to the orebeds,” Gonyo said.

“It’s all sitting there ready to go.

All it has to do is be scooped up and put in a rail car.”

There is currently a market for high-friction granite in the hurricane-ravaged sections of the Northeast.

“We’re working with some firms down in New York City to start hauling that high-friction granite down to the city to help with the rebuild efforts from Hurricane

Justin Gonyo from page 1 Whitehall. When he first got hired, it was in Fort Edward, but North Creek was in the territory that the Third Subdivision covered.

Tim moved to North Creek with his family when his father, Robert, was transferred here in the late 1960s. They both introduced Justin to the railroading life. Justin remembers the last time his father brought him to work when he was 9 years old.

“That’s what Dad did; that’s what I wanted to do,” Justin said.

By the time Justin graduated from the Johnsburg Central School in 2003, he wasn’t thinking about a railroad career.

“I hadn’t really thought about the railroad since I was about 14 years old,” Justin said. “Up until I was 14, I knew I wanted to work for the railroad. That’s all I wanted to do, but then I kind of grew up and went off and did my own thing.”

After graduation, he eventually moved to Queensbury to work for Six Flags at The Great Escape. His tour of duty there lasted from 2005 to 2008. Then his father told him that the

D&H Railway in North Creek The Delaware & Hudson (D&H) Railway has a long history in North Creek. The company bought the Adirondack Railway between here and Saratoga Springs in 1889, and it later became the D&Hʼs Adirondack Division. Regular passenger service ended along the 57-mile stretch in 1956, as the Public Service Commission accepted the D&Hʼs petition to discontinue passenger service in May 1957 (source: May 29, 1957 issue of the North Creek News Enterprise). In 1956, the railway was only running trains between late June and early September. Freight service ended on Nov. 17, 1989, when the last shipment of ore was transported out of the Tahawus mine. In 1991, the D&H sold its Adirondack Division to the Canadian Pacific Railway.

Sandy,” Gonyo said. “It’s an emergent need and we have just the type of rock that they need to rebuild down there.”

There are also about 100 million tons of Tahawus tailings, rock leftover from the ore-extraction process. And one of the SNC’s clients wishes to get the iron out of those tailings.

Iron mines were first established at Tahawus and the nearby village of Adirondac in the early 19th century, but there was an impurity in the orebed: ilmenite, which when processed becomes titanium dioxide. When the mine at Tahawus was re-established in 1942, the mining company was extracting ilmenite for titanium dioxide for use in industrial applications such as paint for World War II. While National Lead processed ilmenite at the Tahawus mine, it also extracted magnetite (iron ore).

Twenty percent of the tailings are magnetite.

“There’s a need for that and there’s a process in place to extract the other 20 percent of the iron,” Gonyo said.

News Enterprise - 7 There would be no processing at the National Lead mine; instead, the tailings will be shipped out to an ore-extraction processing facility elsewhere.

Barton Mines is also a customer and will soon be shipping garnet from its North River processing plant, making a 3,000-mile crosscountry trip to a distribution facility in Kent, Wash., south of Seattle.

Since setting up shop in North Creek and Saratoga Springs in July 2011, the SNC has created between 30 and 75 jobs, including Gonyo’s.

He wouldn’t have been able to return to his hometown and work for the railroad without Iowa Pacific’s investment.

“And with the growth of the freight, it will only create more,” Gonyo said. “We’ll need more engineers and conductors. And we may also need more maintenance of way personnel. Those are the guys that work on the tracks.”

To start, Gonyo expects that there will be one crew taking freight between Tahawus and North Creek and another crew taking the freight from North Creek south to Saratoga Springs, where it will connect with the D&H. Freight trains going north of North Creek are only allowed to go a maximum of 10 mph. Between North Creek and Saratoga Springs, freight cars can run a maximum of 25 mph and passenger trains can travel a maximum of 30 mph.

Passenger service The SNC is currently working on marketing efforts for its 2013 summer season. They will be re-creating the D&H’s Summer Paradise marketing campaign, creating packages for travelers that will include rail service, hospitality at places such as the Copperfield Inn,

D&H was hiring. Those railroading tales from his family soon flooded back.

“I remember hearing stories from Grandpa when I was growing up, so it was kind of always around me,” said Justin, who recalled stories about stations in the D&H North End, places like Chazy, West Chazy, Plattsburgh, Lyon Mountain and Rouses Point.

Justin applied and got the position with the D&H, which is now a subsidiary of the Canadian Pacific (CP) Railway.

During the time with CP, he traveled west to Waseca, Minn. and worked on the Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern Railroad, another subsidiary of CP. He spent almost nine months there.

Then he moved back to New York to work on the D&H again. A month later, he was promoted to the supervisor of operations for the D&H North End, covering the rail lines between Oneonta and Rouses Point. His office was in Albany at Kenwood Yard, a freight yard next to the Port of Albany on the Hudson River. He was 25 years old when he took the promotion, living in North Creek and commuting to Albany for work.

“I drove all over the place,” Justin said. “One year I put on 66,000 miles just driving between here, Binghamton and Rouses Point.”

One of the stations along the D&H North End is Saratoga Springs. As the supervisor of operations, he was in communication with the railroad’s clients and partners.

“That’s how I met these guys (Saratoga & North Creek Railway) because they operated in my territory,” Justin said.

“I was their representative for CP.” SNC General Manager Steve Torrico approached Justin about the general superintendent’s position, a job that would take him back to his hometown.

“And here I am now,” Justin said.

At age 28, Justin is hoping his future will keep him in North Creek, where he lives with his fiancee, Allison Braunius. And he would love to work here until he retires.

Justin’s duties for the railroad right now include managing the train engine service, onboard service, ticket clerks,

and family entertainment at attractions such as the Lake George Steamboat Company.

At one point, the D&H had owned the rail line between North Creek and Saratoga Springs, as well as the Lake George Steamboat Company. Visitors who want to take the train and a scenic boat ride on Lake George will be able to ride the train from Saratoga to Thurman, where they will be shuttled 12 miles to the Steamboat Company in downtown Lake George.

“Basically your vacation can start once you get on one of our trains,” Gonyo said.

The SNC is also establishing weekend passenger service in the off-season months of March, April and May. “While we rely on tourist-based passenger trains, we want to show that we’re a year-round operation,” Gonyo said. “The SNC doesn’t close its doors between the end of the ski season and the summer.

It doesn’t close its doors at the end of the summer and the beginning of the winter ... We want to see more trains.”

The SNC created daily runs from Saratoga Springs to North Creek this past summer, including several days of the week that tourists could take trains from New York City to North Creek in the same day. They could leave Penn Station on Amtrak in the morning and have dinner at the Copperfield in the evening.

“Iowa Pacific is eagerly looking to establish more of a foothold in the Northeast,” Gonyo said. “And with the SNC not even being two years old yet, we’ve already achieved some pretty significant points here on the Adirondack Branch. Every day, it’s pushing it forward, growing it more.”

mechanical, maintenance of way and overall operations.

Asked what memories stick out from growing up in a railroad family, Justin said, “Just all the times that I went to work with Dad, being in the locomotives, learning about them, how to run them. That more than anything I remember from the railroad. That and hearing the stories from Grandpa.”

And it was his years working for the D&H on the North End that really made the connection between the past and present.

“One of the really cool parts is when I finally became a conductor on the railroad, going to all these places that I used to hear all these stories about, seeing the stations that my grandfather and great-grandfather grew up in,” Justin said. “And certainly one of the biggest achievements is being on the first train up to Tahawus in 23 years just a few weeks ago.”

Gore opens for season

By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com

NORTH CREEK — The Gore Mountain ski center opened for the season on Friday, Nov. 23 with one lift and five groomed trails.

The on-time opening was only possible thanks to the facility’s snowmaking capabilities, as North Creek has not received measurable snow all season, except on the highest elevations of Gore.

About 8 percent of the ski center ’s terrain was open on Nov. 23, according to the snow report, with 6-16 inches of base and conditions of wet granular snow. There were more than 2 miles of terrain open, serviced by the Northwoods Gondola for intermediate and expert skiers.

The North Creek Ski Bowl was not open for ski season’s first weekend.

Ruby Run and Foxlair were available off Bear Mountain, joining up with Sunway, Quicksilver, 3B and Jamboree for a run back to the bottom of the mountain.

There were also a few terrain park features open, including a down culvert and double barrel down rail at the top of Pine Knot. The new fixed fan gun located there made the opening of the terrain park possible.

Snowmakers were also working on Otter Slide, Showcase, Sleighride, Stokes and The Arena. By Saturday, 10 percent of the terrain was open. For more information, visit online at www.goremountain.com.

Johnsburg boys basketball NORTH CREEK — The Johnsburg boys basketball team will try to improve on their last season’s record of 6-12.

Coach Gene Maiorana and Assistant Coach Randy LaFountain say “enthusiasm abounds” at the Johnsburg Central School as

the hard-working Jaguars concentrate on fundamentals and prepare for the season.

Six members of the squad are returnees — including seniors Chester Prouty, Jonathan Sears and Zach Watson — and the five new See JAGUARS, page 12

Johnsburg girls basketball NORTH CREEK — The Johnsburg girls basketball team is preparing for the season with a roster that includes six veterans.

“We have nice experience, but so do many of the other teams in the league, so we will need to work hard to be competitive,” said

Coach Phil Goodman.

The returning players are Brooke Denno, Mikayla Glode, Kayla Williford, Lydia Knickerbocker, Kora Millington and Emma Lee Ellsworth.

See LADY JAGUARS, page 12

Austin Williams, center, plays hard against Crown Point in a game last season. He is expected to be a team leader. “He’s probably going to be our heart and soul this year,” said Coach Glenn Lang. The Mountaineers begin their season with a Dec. 4 game in Crown Point against the Panthers.

Minerva-Newcomb boys basketball Minerva-Newcomb girls basketball M I N E R VA — S e c o n d year Coach Glenn Lang drilled his squad hard on fundamentals and the Minerva-Newcomb boys varsity basketball team has already played two scrimmages to

get ready for the season.

They played Bolton on Nov. 26 and North Warren on Nov. 27, and as of press time, Lang said he was still finalizing his roster. A team photo was scheduled to be

taken on Nov. 28, after press time, and will appear in the Dec. 8 issue of the News Enterprise.

Asked about his hopes and dreams for the season, Lang said, “Our goal should be to play in Plattsburgh.”

With about half a dozen returning players, the Mountaineers will be getting some help from foreign exchange students. The team begins its season on Dec. 4 at Crown Point.

NEWCOMB — The Minerva-Newcomb girls basketball team will try to improve on their last season’s record of 12-6.

Coach Matt Winslow said he lost Rebecca Bolan, Renna Yandon and Brianna Hammond to graduation, but he has seven returning players and 10 new ones, including some foreign exchange students.

“This year ’s team has an interesting mixture of expe-

rience,” Winslow said. “I have six or seven girls with at least two years of varsity experience. A few more with some modified experience and a few girls with very limited basketball experience.”

With a large squad of 17 players, the Lady Mountaineers have youth on their side.

“We have one lone senior on this year ’s team so we are hoping to build for the future,” Winslow said. “I believe we can make some noise in the division and surprise some teams this year. That will depend on how well our players respond to playing at the var-

sity level.”

Ashley Miller will score with short jumpers and provide solid defensive.

Gabrielle McNally will be expected to score and control the lane on defense.

Dakota Bennett is a rock solid defender and will score in transition.

Makenzie Winslow will be the primary ball handler who will score from distance as well as in transition. Nicole Rubertone will clean up the garbage inside as well as defend and rebound. Rachel Bush, Rebecca Marra, Angela McCall, Emily Marra and Danielle McNally will make positive contributions. The rest of the team should come around with more practice.

“We should end up somewhere in the middle of the pack in the division this year,” Winslow said.

The team begins its regular season on Wednesday, Dec. 5 with a home game against Crown Point.

“We have four starters that can handle the ball well and can shoot well from the perimeter,” Olbert said.

“Colin Farrell and Matt Moore are both capable of playing inside and out making them very versatile and hard to guard. Colin is our go-to guy as he was last year and should be a dominant force in out conference.”

The team’s main weakness is its speed.

“Overall we could be faster,” Olbert said. “The players are athletic enough but quickness can only be developed to a certain extent.”

The team begins its regular season on Tuesday, Dec. 4 with a game at Wells.

LONG LAKE — The Indian Lake-Long Lake boys basketball team will try to improve on their last season’s record of 3-12 in the conference and 5-13 overall.

Coach David Olbert said he lost Damon Gagnier and Zack Ruland to graduation this year, but he has 10 returning players.

“I think we will have a very good chance of competing for the division title,” Olbert said. “Damon Gagnier started most games for us down the stretch but Rudy Giesson who started a number of games especially early in the season should fill that void nicely.”

With 26 years of coaching experience under his belt, Olbert is entering his third year coaching the Orange boys varsity basketball team.

His win-loss record is 16-21, and he hopes that record will improve with the 2012-13

INDIAN LAKE — Returning for his seventh year coaching girls varsity basketball, John Reynolds helped his squad earn a 15-2 regular season record last year and 3-1 in post-season play.

In March, the Orange took the Section VII/Class D championship for the second year in a row with a 38-30 win over Elizabethtown-Lewis and lost 4721 against Section II champs Argyle in the regional finals.

“I think the league will be tough again this year, and the team is looking forward to getting started with our games,” Reynolds said.

This year ’s team is a nice mix of veterans and first year players, according to Reynolds, and the players would like to continue the program’s recent success.

“The girls are trying to win their division for the sixth straight year,” Reynolds said. “The team has also won back-to-back section 7 titles and want to be in the big games at the end of the year.”

The team begins its regular season on Wednesday, Dec. 5 with a home game against Wells.

“Myler, Denno and Glode should be able to put the ball in the basket, but we need other girls to step up offensively to be successful,” Coach Goodman said. “In the recent past, we have been too soft defensively, so we need more effort in that area and we need to be more energetic and aggressive.”

One of the team’s strengths is its experience with returning players, both the starters and reserves.

Missing from the roster this year are graduates Chris Scott, John Gahan and offensive powerhouse Taylor Ordway.

“To make up for that loss, we are utilizing a more balanced offensive strategy,” Coach Maiorana said. “Defensively this year ’s players are showing promise with their upgraded skill levels, leading to a competitive season.”

Johnsburg Alpine Ski Team NORTH CREEK — Johnsburg Alpine Ski Team Coach Pete Burns and Assistant Coach Steve Ovitt are looking forward to a good season for their team with lots of snow.

The 11-skier squad includes seniors Shannon Ovitt, John Ordway and Ryan Olson. The rest of the skiers are Courtney Allard, Megan Miller, Jamie Bruce, John Stark, Justin Schmale, Brandon Tyrel, Patrick Harrison and Adrian Achat.

“We have a fairly young team this season with three skiers new to racing, but we also have a few kids that should do well,” Coach Burns said. “Our goal for Courtney, Shannon and Ryan is to have them solidly place in the top 15 consistently, which will earn them points towards the state meet.”

The goal for the rest of the team is to build on what they have been working on the past seasons. They got a good start on the slopes this past week with practice runs on Gore Mountain, which opened its season on Nov. 23.

“Brandon, Megan, Justin, John Ordway and Patrick have all improved their technique substantially and are skiing well so the goal with them is to improve on last season’s results,” Coach Burns said.

“Jamie, John Stark and Adrian are all new to racing so the goal there is to work on their technique and get them comfortable in a race course.”

“These guys will be in the top group of skiers all year,” Coach Wilson said.
