Where the road crosses the river

● Regional Parks “re-envisions” the recreation center of Healdsburg

By Christian Kallen

Hot weather in the heart of summer is not uncommon, so like other communities that face periodic heat waves, Healdsburg has learned to adapt. Backyard swimming pools, a health club membership or dialing into regular use of the Healdsburg Pool at the high school can all help one endure the hottest part of the day.

Whether a tourist or a local (or that broad category of “visitors from nearby”), everyone knows the first stop is Healdsburg Veterans Memorial Beach, where the Redwood Highway crosses the Russian River. According to Sarah Campbell of Sonoma County Regional Parks, the most recent headcount showed about 68,000 visitors

By Cincinnatus Hibbard

Named Ashokawna—“the water to the east”—by the Southern Pomo; Slavyanka, “Slavic woman,” by the Russian Colony; and “Saint Ignatius” and “big river” by the Spanish colonists who came after, the river itself remains nameless and mighty, winding 115 miles to the sea.

River’s ‘keeper’

— Continued from page 1

Fed by 240 tributary streams and creeks, it drains 1,500 square miles of Mendocino and Sonoma counties. It fills Lake Mendocino and Lake Sonoma, local drinking reservoirs and the aquifers beneath them. It waters vineland and timberland. Each year, it pours an average of 1.5 million acre-feet into the ocean at Jenner.

An estimated 30-40% of Mendocino and Sonoma county jobs depend on it, directly or indirectly.

We should bow to the Russian River, the artery of the north. Instead, we treat it as a gutter.

In 2025 alone, Russian Riverkeeper— self-styled protector of the river—pulled roughly a half-million pounds of trash from its waters, a volume that has grown, year over year, for the past five years. To do so, the Healdsburg nonprofit organized 900 local volunteers across 75 separate cleanup events along its length.

McEnhill says the annual Salmon Creek coastal cleanup event now turns up noticeably less trash each year. The river’s health—it discharges trash, microplastics, motor oil, industrial chemicals, agricultural fertilizers, feces, pesticides, pharmaceuticals and acidifying minerals into the sea—is a major determinant to our coastal region’s health.

After a prominent career at several distinguished mountain bike and camping companies, McEnhill returned to his native Sonoma County to become leader of Russian Riverkeeper.

Yes, and the more room we give the river, the more it recharges our groundwater and protects us from drought.

What about overpumping from the river?

Songwriters find ‘paradise’ in Healdsburg, again

● Cozy seating, vineyard views and talented colleagues meet for 4th year

By Anne Ward Ernst

Small in numbers yet big in heart and soul, the intimate music, food and wine experience known as Songwriters in Paradise (SIP) returns to Healdsburg for its fifth iteration July 16-18.

To maintain a living-room atmosphere, seating is limited to between 100-150 people. Each night features at least six singer/songwriters who take turns in a round-robin style performing a song they have written and sharing the story behind the lyrics. Multiple wines are poured throughout the evening, and hors d’oeuvres are offered to pair with them.

SIP founder Patrick Davis and his wife, Lauren Jenkins, are big fans of Healdsburg, Davis said, noting that every time he visits, he is impressed by the friendliness of the locals. He was introduced to the city by Mike Brennan, board member of the Chamber of Commerce and director of sales at Mills District, Davis said.

“What I found when I got to this quaint little Wine Country town was beauty, kindness, community and a paradise that is definitely perfect for Songwriters in Paradise,” he said.

The Musicians

The artists are all accomplished musicians, some names more familiar than others. This year’s lineup includes Davis, Jenkins, Marc Broussard, Ashley Campbell (Glen Campbell’s daughter), Thor Jensen, Kristian Bush, James Otto, Radney Foster, Levi Lowrey, Django Walker, Chris Stills (son of Stephen Stills) and Jerry Flowers, who is a SIP newcomer. Search on those names and discover their gold-standard musical backgrounds. Bush, for example, is one-half of the acclaimed duo Sugarland, which has won multiple awards from the Grammys, Country Music Association, Academy of Country Music and Country Music and Television.

one couple separated, the woman went to the check-in desk while the man went to a large window overlooking the pool.

Bush said he gets song inspiration from everyday life, including eavesdropping, personal experiences or just observations. He said that while sitting in a resort lobby, he watched a tour group get off a bus and file through the lobby. As

Excitedly the man shouted to the woman, “There’s a bar with a pool in it!” And that was the beginning of Bush’s popular song titled just that, which is on his solo EP album, Summertime Six Pack. Lowrey, who plays multiple instruments, has shared the stage with the likes of Zac Brown Band and Mumford and Sons, and is frequently requested by fellow SIP artists to join them onstage and play his fiddle with them.

Flowers spent more than two decades playing bass with Keith Urban and writing songs for hitmakers such as Sam Hunt, Maren Morris, Jason Aldean and Morgan Wallen.

Davis has written songs with and for artists such as Guy Clark and Jimmy Buffet, and a recent release of his song “Carolina When I Die” features Darius Rucker on vocals. The song became even more relevant to Davis’ South Carolina ties when the state appointed him poet laureate.

Though SIP’s format follows a general routine, every round of every night offers a surprise. During a SIP Napa evening in 2025, for example, Stills, Bush and Davis held an impromptu guitar jam which wowed their fellow musicians and audience alike. In the most recent SIP Napa, artists trying out never-before-released songs included a performance by Otto’s 15-year-old daughter, Ava, who took the stage with Jenkins, pairing two powerhouse voices.

The Venues

Hilltop venues with Wine Country views set the scene for SIP kicking off at The Ranch at Calegari Vineyards on Westside Road on Thursday, July 16. The estate, owned by Don and Patsy Calegari, provides grapes for celebrated wineries such as Williams Selyem, one of the wineries that will be pouring wine. Other wineries featured on night one include Mauritson, Lando, Chev, Cirq Estate and Thompson 31Fifty Wines.

Bricoleur Vineyards in Windsor hosts Friday night, July 17, as estate chefs put out a spread throughout the tasting room and grounds serving savory and sweet small dishes created to complement the wines.

Robert Young Estate Winery’s sweeping vineyard views provide the backdrop for the closing night concert on Saturday, July 18. Accompanying food will be provided by the Parish Café, and other Alexander Valley wineries will share their wines as well.

Additional events for VIP pass holders. Tickets and passes are limited and available at SongwritersInParadise.com.

OBITUARIES

Tom Peterson, born Lowell Thomas Peterson, loving husband, father, papa and friend to many, passed away peacefully in Santa Rosa on June 24, 2026 at the age of 79 due to kidney failure.

Tom was born in Plentywood, MT on May 12, 1947 to Glenn Alphonso Peterson and Josie Maxzean Hovland (Peterson). He was raised in Montana until age four when the family moved to Concord, CA. He graduated from Mt. Diablo High School in 1965. After a stint at Diablo Valley College, he was drafted by the U.S. Army in 1967 during the Vietnam War. Tom was stationed in Berlin for two years. He qualified as an expert rifleman and sharpshooter.

Outside of marching in parades and maneuvers, his unit had guard duty at Spandau Prison where the sole inmate was Rudolf Hess, Adolf Hitler’s Deputy Fuhrer.

After the military, he started a 32year career at AT&T/Pacific Bell in San Jose. In 1973 he moved to Healdsburg where he settled and spent the rest of his life. He continued his career as a maintenance splicer and construction splicer on rural roads and faraway places throughout Sonoma County, which he considered his dream job, working outside.

In 1985 he and his wife Jo started their lifetime hobby of volunteering. Over the years they volunteered as a team for many different causes and organizations. Tom was a Healdsburg Parks & Recreation Commissioner for 19

Tom had many hobbies, he was constantly reading newspapers (back to front daily since he learned to read) and books, especially military history and biographies. He was a lifetime collector of interesting toys, military models and Pepsi paraphernalia. Gardening with his green thumb, he created an oasis at his home’s asphalt jungle. Tom and Jo, along with other family members, worked hard to help maintain the family property in Albion, where his parents retired after careers as teachers. Many happy occasions were spent in Albion.

years. Other volunteer roles included St. John’s School, Healdsburg Little League, the annual Senior Appreciation Dinner (washing pots and pans), Healdsburg High School Boosters, Healdsburg Lion’s Club, Healdsburg American Legion, Healdsburg Chamber of Commerce, Healdsburg’s 150th Celebration and more. Tom also coached his son, Mickey, in soccer and T-ball.

Tom learned to take statistics for the Healdsburg Freshman Football team from Betty Lopeman. Tom and Jo took over varsity stats as well after Betty retired, and they enjoyed following the teams all over Northern California. Tom spearheaded renovations and updates of local monuments, including the Olympic Torch flame monument in the Plaza, repairs to the West Plaza fountain and the Plaza fountain. For many years he maintained the U.S. flag at the Mitchell Shopping Center.

Closest to his heart was volunteering with the City of Healdsburg Parks & Recreation Department for 16 years, often 40 hours a week until the grandchildren came along, then only on the days he wasn’t caring for them. In 1997, Tom and Jo were the second recipients of the Marie Sparks Volunteer of the Year award for their continued service to Healdsburg. When he retired from that role in 2019, the Healdsburg City Council issued a proclamation thanking him and recognizing that he had accumulated about 25,000 hours of volunteer service to Healdsburg for many causes.

Tom’s favorite activity was being Papa to his grandchildren. He was present at almost every practice, recital, game and play, and loved being a grandpa taxi. He was very proud of them and was always at their activities early to make sure he didn’t miss anything. When the first grandchild Katianne arrived, Jo was still working. Tom happily watched her many weekdays and walked all over town with her in a stroller. At this time he was baking scrumptious cookies he would share with various friends and businesses they encountered on their walks. Two months later in San Diego, granddaughter Madeleine arrived. Over the years Tom and Jo would visit four to five times a year, trying to be there for first days of school, birthdays and holidays, and see the showcase of her many interests and talents.

Tom was preceded in death by his parents, son Joaquin Melendez Peterson and brother Glenn Henry Peterson. Tom was happily married to Jo Peterson since 1984. He leaves behind his sister, Patti Hanson (Bob); son, Mickey Walker Peterson (Katie); daughtersin-law, Donna Peterson and Stephanie Wickwire; and grandchildren Katianne Wickwire, Madeleine Peterson, Juliana Van Bakel and Andrew and Bodhi Ambrosi.

An informal gathering will be held Saturday, August 1, 11am to 2pm at the Abel De Luna Community Center, 1547 Healdsburg Avenue in Healdsburg. Tom’s favorites will be served. All who knew him are welcome to drop by to enjoy food and share memories.

Memorial Beach

— Continued from page 1

for the previous year.

The ranger at the gate or electronic “iron rangers” calculate every car that enters to pay the daily parking fee. The expansive parking lot beneath the eucalyptus seems huge, but it fills up quickly on a summer’s day.

The park has a large grassy area for picnicking or games, and a steep beach leading to the river. From their red-andwhite-flagged towers, a pair of lifeguards keeps watch on several buoy-defined swimming areas along the beach, and the more dangerous deeper current.

Life vests are available daily throughout the summer from well-marked stands. Just pick out a vest, use it all day and drop it at the stand upon departure. (Like the parking spaces, the life jackets disappear fast.) Outdoor showers and basic restrooms are available.

Backward glimpses

Some sort of seasonal dam designed to create a lake at this location has existed since at least 1908 when a summer water carnival drew “many thousands” to the bank of the river. According to Campbell, of the Regional Parks marketing department, “There has been a dam of some sort impounding water at this location from the very early 1900s,” managed by various organizations. “The current structure was installed in the mid-50s by the County, and Regional Parks has been installing it since the late ’60s.”

According to Regional Parks, the current seasonal summer dam was built in 1955 using post-World War II funds and serves as the only public Russian River

beach with seasonal lifeguard service.

With the regular seasonal dam in place, summers have been reliable for local river sports. In the 1950s and ’60s, speedboat racing and waterskiing became possible, and the reservoir behind the dam filled up almost a mile upstream.

It’s worth noting that the historical dam used to go up around Memorial Day, hence Healdsburg Veterans Memorial Beach. “That changed following construction of the fish ladder in 2001-2002, when the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (then the California Department of Fish and Game) updated the operating permits,” Campbell pointed out. The concrete fish ladder built into the dam’s foundation proved ineffective. “Now permits specify that June 26 is the earliest date the dam can be installed to impound water, as most upstream fish migration has concluded by then.”

That current structure, a temporary dam made of what looks like plastic sheeting, plywood and two-by-fours (though it is certainly more complex and durable than that), goes up every July. The public beach that results, accessible with a Regional Parks ticket or annual pass, is the first place many people think of when they think of Healdsburg.

“Cost varies from year to year based on the annual condition assessment of the beach and flashboard panels,” Campbell said, specifying that it typically costs $120,000-$150,000 to install and remove the dam each year. That number “includes materials/supplies (like sand, rock, gravel, wood and hardware), permits, equipment rentals, crane and staff time,” Campell said.

A look ahead

Although Memorial Beach has changed little over time, it has changed too much for some—and not nearly enough for others. Since 2016, the City of Healdsburg and Regional Parks have cooperated on

a Memorial Beach Renovation Plan. The plan will rectify the oversight that the 11.5-acre park lacked any documentation to guide “the property’s development, public access, recreational and educational uses, and habitat enhancements.”

But the more they looked at it the more the study committee liked the idea of re-envisioning the property altogether. “However, the latest proposal envisions an entirely new type of river park at Healdsburg Veteran’s Memorial Beach, one without the dam,” reported the Regional Parks study group in 2023.

“We propose replacing the existing steeply sloped beach with a more gently sloped beach, creating level terraced areas for picnics and sunbathing, all connected by accessible pathways. Instead of installing the dam each summer season, the beach area will provide a series of permanent terraced pools designed for swimming and water recreation, with sandy areas for access. This will allow people to enjoy the river and park for several more months of the year, without having to rely on the dam being installed.”

In other words no dam at all, but a series of four or five “drop structures” designed to slow and shape the spillway they create. The opportunities could include hydraulic features such as pools and eddies, waves and swimming holes. Recreation could range from tubing to kayaking or even river surfing during high-water months. Comparable urban rivers, in places like Buena Vista and Salida in Colorado, could make the river part of Healdsburg’s in-town, year-round recreation choices.

The Healdsburg Veterans Memorial Beach project lost some momentum when it stalled out during Covid—the last public meeting took place in 2018. A schedule on the county website about the project lists a city-county meeting—which did not occur—to be held last

spring, and a final proposal to the Board of Supervisors that was to follow in the fall seems unlikely.

“The project team is now developing more detailed engineering plans and designs to better define the project before the next phase of community engagement and public input,” Campbell said. “We expect that outreach could begin within the next six months.”

How can home prices be stable?

● Here’s why a stable median did not reflect the big sellers

By David Hargreaves

If one noticed that Healdsburg’s median home price barely moved last spring, one would be forgiven for thinking the market went quiet. It settled at right around $1.16 million between April and June, almost exactly where it was a year earlier. Case closed, nothing to see.

Except that is not what happened. A closer look at the spring market reveals three very different Healdsburgs hiding inside one flat number.

Break the town’s sales into price ranges and every single one got more expensive over the past year. Homes under $1 million, homes between $1 million and $3 million, and estates above $3 million all rose. The flat headline is not the story. It is barely a footnote to it.

So how can every range go up while the overall median stays put? The trick is in what a median actually is. It is not the average of all the sale prices added together. It is the price of the single home sitting in the exact middle when one lines up every sale from cheapest to most expensive.

This spring a bigger share of the homes that sold were at the affordable end. Entry-level sales under $1 million grew from about 39% of the town’s closings a year ago to 46%. When more lower-priced homes join the line, the home standing in the middle of it is a cheaper one than the year before, even though homes of every type are selling for more.

The middle number held flat because the mix shifted, not because prices stalled.

When looking segment by segment, the three Healdsburgs look nothing alike.

Segment by Segment

The affordable end is the fastest-moving corner of town. Genuinely affordable homes are rare here, and when one appears it goes quickly. Sales under $1 million jumped about 41% over the year and sold faster than anything else.

The middle, from $1 million to $3 million, is the heart of the market and the most interesting range this spring. Prices here rose the most of any tier, up roughly 14% to about $1.5 million, yet homes are taking the longest to sell, around 91 days against 62 a year ago. For local buyers that is the real headline: prices are up, but so is patience, and a well-prepared buyer has more room to negotiate here than almost anywhere in the county.

A good example of what this range offers just came to market on one of the valley’s best addresses, 3229 West Dry Creek Rd. It is listed by BruingtonHargreaves at $2,195,000, squarely in the $1-$3 million range.

At the top, the estate tier is thin but setting records. Very few homes above $3 million trade in any given month, so the numbers swing, but the direction is clear. Healdsburg’s estate sales reached a June median near $7.85 million, up from about $6.5 million a year earlier. That mirrors the county, where luxury sales jumped more than 50%. Our read is that this is Bay Area money moving north, as San Francisco slips back into a bidding frenzy and prices buyers out toward Wine Country.

Step back and Healdsburg still looks like the calmest town in Sonoma County, with homes averaging about 80 days on market against 50 countywide. On the surface, patient and quiet. Underneath, three separate markets moving in three different directions.
