● $16 million remodel brings tantalizing improvements, opportunities for growth
By Christian Kallen
The skyline between Rec Park and Oak Mound Cemetery is taking on a bold new look as a complete remodel of the historic Boys & Girls Club continues, working toward a mid2027 opening.
The $16 million rebuild marks the most significant project of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Sonoma-Marin since the completion of the Roseland Flagship Clubhouse in 2023. The Healdsburg Club, a founding member of the regional system, was created in
1946 as the Barbieri Boxing Club. Currently some 20 clubs comprise the two-county system, Healdsburg being the oldest.
Modernizing a club that has served the community for nearly 80 years and its Piper Street clubhouse built in the 1960s is no easy task. The project aims to balance state-of-the-art educational spaces with historical preservation, specifically




retaining the original gymnasium structure.
Progressing rapidly and with the roof installation currently underway, construction should be completed in March of next year. The plan is to put it to use in April when the regional Boys

● Prop. 28 funds, local grants support new classes, programs
By Tiffany Dougherty
The arts have long been an important part of the Healdsburg Unified School District community. Over the past several years, we have worked intentionally to ensure that every student has meaningful opportunities to create, perform and experience the arts throughout their education.
California’s Prop. 28 provided new, ongoing funding for arts and music education, and a grant from Creative Sonoma allowed a committee of educators to be paid for the thoughtful work of developing a districtwide Arts Education Plan. The plan was intentionally aligned with the City of Healdsburg’s Arts and Culture Master Plan, reflecting a shared commitment to making the arts accessible and visible throughout our community. During the 2025-26 school year, two years of planning

In 2026-27, HUSD will welcome Autumn Phipps as its new certificated elementary arts teacher, expanding access to dedicated arts instruction for our youngest learners. Arts PLT members will also lead professional learning for fellow educators, sharing practical strategies for integrating the arts across subject areas.

moved into action as the committee became the Arts Professional Learning Team (PLT). Members mapped essential arts standards across grade levels and created new opportunities for students to learn, perform and share their work.
HHS visual arts teacher Linus Lancaster spearheaded the Arts Education Forum in collaboration with the Healdsburg Arts and Culture Commission. That partnership has also created opportunities for student voice in community arts leadership, with an HUSD student now serving on the commission. At Healdsburg Junior High, visual arts teacher Lauren Spencer brought the first HJH Arts Night to the community, showcasing student creativity across multiple art forms.
The performing arts also continue to connect our schools and community. HJH theater teacher Danette McCormick and HHS theater teacher Monica Chavez produce plays for audiences to enjoy each year. Band teacher John Natelli provided live musical accompaniment for the most recent HHS production and shares the work of HJH and HHS student musicians through concerts throughout the year.
Students have also become teachers themselves. Older students led arts lessons for elementary classrooms, including Maria Hadley’s second-grade stu-
dents, while HJH students shared their expertise in printmaking with HHS visual arts students.
Community partnerships have extended student creativity beyond school walls. Students created ceramic plates for an HHS Culinary Department Deep Roots Dinner, sourced from and served at Alexander Valley Vineyard. The Farm + Market: Healdsburg book by Liza Gershman offered another opportunity to connect young artists with the community around them.
Our next goal is to make student art even more visible throughout Healdsburg. What began as a plan is becoming a connected system of arts education shaped by dedicated educators, enthusiastic students and a community that values creativity. We are excited for Healdsburg to see what our students create next.
Local businesses interested in displaying student work in storefronts, offices, restaurants or other community spaces are invited to contact Tiffany Dougherty, Director of Curriculum and Instruction, at tdougherty@husd.com or 707.431.3483.



● Folia’s chef de cuisine
Reed Palmer keeps it in the family
By Amber Turpin
Reed Palmer is chef de cuisine at Folia Bar & Kitchen, the flagship restaurant inside Appellation Healdsburg. Born and bred here, he returned home after years abroad to apply an internationally shaped palate to Sonoma County.
Obviously, Palmer’s path into food began early, with him being son to Michelin-starred, celebrated chef Charlie Palmer. He also worked stages at ILIS in Brooklyn and Amass in Copenhagen before formalizing his training with a hospitality management degree from Cornell University and further culinary
study at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park.
A subsequent stint at One White Street and time spent under the mentorship of the team at Blue Hill at Stone Barns rounded out his grounding in farm-forward cooking, waste-conscious kitchens and narrative-driven menus.
Another mentor, besides his dad, looms large in Palmer’s cooking. Amass founder Matt Orlando instilled in him a respect for ingredient integrity and creative reinvention. At Folia, Palmer partners closely with area growers and producers to build menus centered on open-flame cooking, fermentation and pickling, letting Sonoma’s bounty take the lead.
Amber Turpin: How did you get into this work?
Reed Palmer: I am lucky enough to have been exposed to the kitchen at a young age and at a very high level. It was surreal to see the way restaurants ran and the people that made it happen. I think it was natural for me to be curious, but my dad taught me to love the work that we do.
What is your favorite thing to cook—or eat—and why?
For me, it’s that time at the end of spring and beginning of summer. All my favorite produce is coming into season, and the food reflects a more simplistic approach and is all about the quality of the product. What ingredients do you use or eat the most?
It is hard to say what one may lean on, but I would say, in general, different spices, specifically peppercorns—it’s a way to
really create nuance and individuality, especially when going down the rabbit hole of the endless varieties.
What are some of your go-to places to go out for a sit-down meal? What about take-out?
I will go out of my way to eat at Swan Oyster Depot; it’s the perfect spot. And it’s always exciting to eat at any of chef Stuart Brioza’s restaurants: State Bird, Anchovy Bar or The Progress in San Francisco. Last meal on Earth?
My dad’s “Fireman’s Chicken.” It’s his mother’s recipe from upstate New York. Or my mother’s famous meat loaf.

● The 115th anniversary of a distraction from revelry
By Pierre Ratte
Little Monte Rio offers much variety this time of year. The 115th Annual Variety Show arrived last week. Tickets for it sold out in April. On the day of the show, folks began lining up at 7am for optimal chair placement in a grassy amphitheater backdropped by towering redwoods. Over 2,000 people attended. Comedians, singers, musicians and magicians performed till almost midnight. Livingston Taylor, James Taylor’s brother, served as master of ceremonies and squired the show along, as the Bohemians like to say.
And speaking of the Bohemians, they’re celebrating their 148th midsummer encampment. While the hoi polloi gathered for the Variety Show, the elite arrived in private jets for revelry and connections under the redwoods in a slightly larger venue in Monte Rio—the Bohemian Grove. Over the years presidents, generals and captains of industry have mingled with artists, actors,
musicians and media people, previously called journalists. The collection of—air quote—“campers” includes about 2,000 members and invited guests. Membership in the club, highly coveted, is strictly by invitation. The waiting list can be years or decades long. Following the two-week encampment’s opening ceremony, called the Cremation of Care, life’s daily worries are left behind.
FUN FACTS: No one attending the Variety Show knows who will perform when they purchase a ticket in April or show up in July—the talent line-up is drawn from Bohemian Grove attendees. Proceeds benefit the Monte Rio community through St. Catherine’s Church, the fire department and the local school foundation. Hoi polloi is Greek, meaning “the masses.”
The Bohemian Grove Club first met in San Francisco in 1872. Its founding was intended to help creatives flourish. Summer camping started in 1878. In 1899 the club purchased 160 acres from M.C. Meeker, but the grounds have now expanded to about 2,700 acres. The artists gathering in the 1870s quickly realized that talent alone would not propel their creative interests. Accordingly,


journalists invited newspaper owners and artists invited patrons, and so began the unique mixing of talent, money, conversation and creativity that became the Bohemian Grove.
Despite the club’s motto, “Weaving Spiders Come Not Here” (meant to keep politics and business out of
Healdsburg Police Department, joined him for the past two years.
Their goal: Distributing free Narcan nasal spray to almost every business, shop, restaurant, bank and hotel around Healdsburg. At least in part due to their efforts, almost every place around the Plaza has Narcan in its first aid kit. They have also taken up the mission at businesses in the Vineyard Shopping Center, in Geyserville and even River Rock Casino in Alexander Valley.
Healdsburg District Hospital is in the process of installing a Narcan for free distribution outside the Emergency Room on University Street.

these overdose deaths can be lessened.”
These men are working on that now, distributing window stickers to all the stores in town that carry Narcan in-house so that people can get Narcan easily and quickly. The stickers, placed on doors so as to be easily seen by people outside, declare, “Narcan Available Here In Case of Overdose Emergency.” They also read, “Ask Inside: No Judgement No Cost.”
North Bay organization Micah’s Hugs, founded in the wake of the death of Micah William Hamlow-Sawyer Jr. of a fentanyl drug overdose in June 2019, provides the window stickers. He was 22 years old.

● New window stickers announce life-saving medication
Three Healdsburg men are trying to save lives by distributing Narcan nasal spray throughout Healdsburg and the area, as first reported two years ago in the Tribune
“Narcan (naloxone) is an amazing lifesaving drug that is simply and quickly administered by nasal spray to anyone suffering an overdose of narcotics such as the very powerful fentanyl,” said retired physician David Anderson, one of the three men who have taken up the mission of making Narcan widely available in the Healdsburg business community. Another retired physician, Walt Maack, and Jeff McGee, licensed family therapist for the
“It has been amazing how easily this process has been accepted in the communities,” Anderson said. “Several years ago, many would not have known what Narcan is, but now almost everyone knows of it and is aware of the many thousands of deaths in the U.S.A. that are caused by the narcotic crisis.”
More people die of opioid overdoses than die of breast cancer or motor vehicle deaths. The numbers are staggering: 70,000 overdose deaths in 2025; 42,000 breast cancer deaths. And, “An estimated 36,640 people died in motor vehicle crashes in the United States in 2025,” Maack said. “The helpful news is that Narcan can save lives and should be more widely known and easily available so
“Obviously the whole idea is that if someone is found unconscious in the Plaza (or elsewhere), someone can run to these stores and see the stickers on the store windows and hence get Narcan very quickly,” Anderson said. He pointed out the instructions for use on the Narcan boxes, adding that people are advised to call 911 immediately.
“We will save lives with this Narcan availability,” Anderson said. “Saving even one life is worth the time and effort, and will make a difference to the individual, family and to you if you are the one who administers this lifesaving drug.”

& Girls Clubs hold their annual gala there, with a view westward toward the sunset.
By next June it should be open for business, not only to provide a place for school-age children to go after (or before) school, but as a clubhouse to encourage learning, physical skills and teamwork, and eventually more important “life skills” as the young members grow up.
We toured the new clubhouse on a Friday afternoon, when the work crews from Holly Construction had gone home for the weekend. Jennifer Weiss, the chief executive officer of the clubs, pointed out new features being installed as well as the construction techniques in the 60-year-old gym’s ceiling, the oldest part of the building being retained.
History, perhaps oddly, provides a large part of the Boys & Girls Clubs appeal. The architectural elements of the gymnasium will be continued throughout the building, with open ceiling supports and other “Craftsman” features.
“I’ve been in youth development for 33 years now,” Weiss said. “I started with Boys & Girls Clubs straight out of college [at UC Berkeley in business], and I was lucky enough my first job was at Boys & Girls Clubs in San Francisco.”
She’s been with the local clubs for 18 years, but that contact is modest compared to that of some of the local supporters. “We’ve been here a long time, and so many of our business owners actually grew up at the Boys Club, or the Boys & Girls Club,” Weiss continued. “So we’ve been talking to them about how each one of them wants to support it.” It’s an easier ask of someone who has good memories of their club experience, as many in Healdsburg do.
The new design prioritizes “view corridors” and the safety they bring, eliminating hallways to ensure constant supervision. The new clubhouse will feature an instructional kitchen with three teaching bays where local chefs will teach culinary skills to students ranging from transitional kindergarten through high school. In addition it will contain a dance studio; STEM and arts labs designed as “messy rooms” with washable walls for mixed-media projects; and a Teen Center, where the older kids can explore workplace skills and find a bit more independence than the younger club members might.
“Maybe we’ll start a little entrepreneurial business where the kids can learn to make the coffee,” Weiss said, “and maybe have a little cart where they sell drinks so they can learn basic business and buy their own coffee affordably.” (Decaf of course, she added).

To the relief of former employees and Healdsburg children, about 200 of whom patiently await the new clubhouse opening, the new building will include a full heating and cooling HVAC system, to avoid the extremes of the past. Unlike its predecessor, there will be no shortage of natural light here—the windows are large and every room features an outside view.
The remodel will take full advantage of the location, on top of a hill behind Rec Park. “This will be an amazing place to watch the high school football games, to watch the Prime Packers games,” Weiss said. “Especially for teen nights so the teenagers can come and feel like they’ve got some independence and have some fun while the games are going on.”
Everybody seems to be looking forward to the new Healdsburg Clubhouse. But it’s not an actuality quite yet: If the $16 million fundraising campaign is a mile on a running track (given a kickstart of $1.5 million from John Jordan at The John Jordan Foundation), they’re three laps down, one to go. If it’s a day, it’s 6pm. If it’s a football game, they’re entering the final quarter. In other words, a crucial $4 million is still being pursued—and one of the primary fundraising events was dealt an unexpected blow this year.
For years the clubs’ primary fundraiser has been the annual Healdsburg Crush, usually held in the Plaza. It will
take place in October again this year, but in keeping with the city’s recent push for all such events to take place elsewhere, the Crush will take place at Bacchus Landing on Sunday, Oct. 11.
“It’s wonderful that Bacchus Landing is hosting us, and it’s also heartbreaking to no longer be on the Plaza,” Weiss said. “I did everything that I could with the influence that I had, and got nowhere.”
