The green squash takes center stage at local farmers’ markets, a continuing tradition in home gardening during Sonoma County summers that finds its roots in the Boy Scouts’ Pinewood Derby almost 50 years ago …

‘courgettes’
compete for bragging rights, market bucks
By Christian Kallen
Going to the Saturday Farmers’ Market in the West Plaza parking lot, one finds it is always a place of seasonality, sociability and serendipity. Those who went last Saturday, Aug. 9, happened upon the annual Zucchini Festival, a family friendly event that’s been going on almost as long as the market has existed.
That sounds like a line of sales copy, but it’s pretty close to the truth.
The Healdsburg Farmers’ Market is one of the first 22 farmers’ markets in the state, begun in 1978. The Zuke Fest idea came from the Midwest, modeled after Pinewood Derby races, and was brought to Sonoma County by

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Why no signs of the river?
A river dog asks a question for us all Dear Editor,
I don’t know about you, but when I’m sitting shotgun, driving down the highway, I like to hang my head way out the window, suck up those sniffs and really let my ears fly. It’s both invigorating and relaxing at the same time. It’s doggie porn.
Driving down 101 on my way home from my daily Fitch Mountain hike I caught a mossy whiff of the Russian River as we passed over it (Ah, the Russian River, itself invigorating and relaxing at the same time). My “master,” lacking my olfactory gifts, was oblivious to the occasion. Do you know when you are crossing the River on 101? Probably not—because there is no sign. I’m not a strong reader, so signs are wasted on me, but humans need them to alert them to important places like monuments, gas stations, places to get food and rivers.
Why is there no sign honoring our Russian River on Highway 101? All other rivers I know in California like the Eel, Trinity and Sacramento have signs announcing their presence. Here we have a local treasure of natural beauty and historic
significance that everyone—dogs, otters, humans, ducks, fish—can enjoy, that is left anonymous. It may be Healdsburg’s crown jewel, yet so many of us take the river for granted. So wrong. Rivers have feelings, too. Let’s show some respect. Our river has been abused for decades by gravel mining and human encroachment, and it needs love more than ever. Let’s correct this inequity now. Hello Sen. Mike McGuire, Mayor Mitchell, Cal Trans! —Solito

Kindness is still a thing
Dear Editor,
I wanted to share something that happened recently in Healdsburg that left me feeling incredibly grateful—and hopeful. While driving home after a bike ride with friends in Santa Rosa, about half a mile from my house on University Street, the Thule bike rack on my car (with my bike still attached) came loose and landed in the middle of the road. I pulled over, turned on my hazard lights and got out, trying unsuccessfully to move the heavy rack and bike out of

TESTAMENT The window display at Levin & Company Community Booksellers on Center Street shows the durable impact that Aaron Rosewater had on Healdsburg. A celebration of his life will take place on Aug. 17 at Dragonfly Floral.
Remembering Aaron Rosewater
By Pierre Ratté
Those who have strolled past Downtown Bakery and then found themselves easing into Levin’s without a thought of buying a book because they were enigmatically drawn in, join a host of others. Walking the east side of Center Street on the Plaza, there is an allure to enter Levin’s. Warm and worn Persian carpets, well-curated tables of bestsellers and frequently changed display books are part of it.
But something else cinches one’s opening the door and walking in. It’s knowing that the kindest people operate the bookstore and that the aura is something one wants to experience. The quietude, the atmosphere says: Welcome. A welcome that Aaron made special by his specialness.
On April 5, 2025, Aaron Rosewater, proprietor of Levin & Company Community Booksellers, passed away. His passing at the early age of 60 was shocking and heartrending.
To all who knew him, he was special. His knowledge, patience and kindness were immediately apparent in any interaction at the store. Levin’s is that special bookstore that seems from another era. An era that savors tranquility and gentility, which Aaron and his family created and which continues today.
Remembrance and celebration of a special life that elevated the experience of living in Healdsburg will take place
at 10am on Aug. 17 at Dragonfly Floral, 425 Westside Rd.
Below are remembrances of Aaron and the legacy he and his family established and continue at Levin & Company, Community Booksellers, at 306 Center St. Testimonials:
From The Healdsburg Tribune obit: “He was a brilliant polymath, equally adept in the world of statistics, the arts, and culture both high and low. He was a Shakespeare scholar… He was a trained artist… He was a gifted musician who played guitar as a hobby… He loved to meet with his theater loving friends each year for a week of camping in Oregon for the Shakespeare festival. One year, he decided he would provide campfire entertainment by learning and playing the entire Beatles catalog. But Aaron, being a perfectionist, was not satisfied with the chord structures of the songs that were presented to him in the books he bought or what he could find online… So before learning each song, he first corrected each incorrect chord.
“Aaron was the most even tempered of men. There was no trace of meanness in him anywhere… He lived in a household that operated as a foster home for over sixty small high strong dogs over the course of twenty years, and his gentle manner set them all at ease.
“He was a faithful, loving and appreciative husband who never spoke an ugly word in decades of married life.”

Well Seven At Geysers Comes In Big
At 10:30 Thursday morning, Well No. 7 blew through the bore with a rush of steam, rocks and mud, at the Geysers’ natural steam beds, northwest of Healdsburg, bringing in an additional source of power for the proposed natural steam electrical plant to be erected there. The well had been bored to a depth of 483 feet, when it was decided that the heat and pressure of the workings were sufficiently strong, and the drills were taken from the hole.
After the well had blown out the first loose rocks and debris, the gate was closed and the pressure gauge rose in a few minutes to 150 pounds. It is thought that after the well is allowed to blow off for a time, cleaning out impediments which may be lodged in the vents at the bottom of the well, the pressure will equal that of Well No. 6, which shows a pressure of 240 pounds of steam. The last 100 feet of material gone through in boring this well contained considerable sand, and while the new bore is but
150 feet from Well No. 6, no diminishing in the pressure of that well was noticed when No. 7 was allowed to run wide open.

Bellevue Villa Partner
Sells Business Interest
The world renown French Resort, Bellevue Villa, Fitch Mountain, is in the hands of one family again. The share of the business owned by Manuel Maheras was recently sold to partners Syl Borel and Margaret Jachetta, sister of Mrs. Edith Borel. Borel, a new member of the local Kiwanis Club, stated that the resort will continue to be operated in the same manner for which it has become world famous, with outstanding French cuisine, entertainment and resort accommodations. Mrs. Borel and her sister are daughters of Angelo Stefani, former owner of the Traveler’s Hotel, Willits.

River Rock
Republic Sonoma County in the summer of 2027.
The casino and tribe announced a ground-breaking on Aug. 2 with a press release. It refers to the selection by the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians to name Caesars Entertainment as its development and management partner for the new integrated resort.
“Caesars Republic is our newest brand that takes on the unique personality of each location,” said Dayna Calkins of Caesars Entertainment. She named only two other Caesars Republics, one in Scottsdale and another just opened in Lake Tahoe, making Sonoma County the third in the growing destination brand.
The former Lake Tahoe Harvey’s in Reno has been remodeled at a cost of $160 million, some of it still underway. The River Rock project is currently estimated at $300 million.
“On the heels of a successful launch of Caesars Republic in Lake Tahoe, we couldn’t think of a better place than Sonoma County to continue the brand’s expansion,” said Anthony Carano, president and COO of Caesars Entertainment.
Caesars Entertainment has a local connection, too. The conglomerate originated in 1973 with the building of the Eldorado Hotel in Reno, whose primary investors were Don Carano and his family, among others. Carano later co-founded Ferrari-Carano Winery in Dry Creek Valley.
The Caesars portfolio was purchased by Eldorado in 2020, and their combined brands include Circus Circus, the Harrah’s casinos, the Flamingo in Las Vegas and the Atlantic City Tropicana, the Horseshoe casinos more familiar in the East, among many others.
The resort casino will completely transform River Rock and will feature a new casino floor with more than 1,000 slot machines and 28 table games. The destination will also be home to a new 100-room hotel with a luxury spa, pool and fitness center.
According to the River Rock Casino website, it currently has 1,100 slots, but the biggest difference will be in the luxury hotel itself. The main structure on the River Rock property at present is a tent-like building holding the restaurants and gaming. (The River Rock Casino will remain open during construction.)
Chris Wright, the chairman of the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo, is quoted in the press release as saying, “This partnership with Caesars Entertainment represents more than just a new chapter in our casino’s story—it’s a bold leap into the future for our Tribe and our community. Together, we are creating a world-class resort experience that blends the natural beauty of Sonoma County with premier gaming, hospitality and entertainment.”
Although Caesars introduced the Caesars Republic brand in 2019 as a non gaming concept, a spokesperson for Caesars said recently that it “continues to evolve and will vary regarding gaming based on the market.”
The proximity of a destination Cae sars Republic gaming resort raises the question of Las Vegas-style entertain ment that could draw an additional audi ence. However, a spokesperson for Cae sars Entertainment said, “We do not have plans for entertainment at this time.”
The Tribe
Official recognition of the Tribe as a sov ereign nation occurred in 1915, when the federal government created the Dry Creek Rancheria and named the Tribe the Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians. The rancheria occupies 75 acres in Geyserville off Hwy 128.

Zucchini
— Continued from page 1
Hilda Swartz, the recently retired manager of the Sonoma Farmers’ Market. Pinewood Derbies are usually run as part of the Boy Scout camping experience, with handmade wooden cars speeding down a sloped wooden track to glory.
Swartz had seen derby-style zucchini races at a county fair in Iowa, and when she returned to Sonoma County she led the first festival around 1980, at the Santa Rosa Original Farmers’ Market, which she managed at the time. That puts it at about
the 45-year mark in Sonoma County.
The City of Sonoma was an early partner in the informal Zucchini Festival league, and for many years the wood ramp has been shared between the two cities. (Sonoma’s Zucchini Fest is next week at the regular Tuesday Night Market, Aug. 19, starting at 6pm in Sonoma Plaza.)
“The few markets in the area all worked together in those days and the track was shared with Healdsburg for several years, until the transportation became challenging,” said Mary Kelley, a former manager of the Healdsburg Certified Farmers’ Market. “So Jerry Stewart, a market patron and husband of our contest organizer Barbara, built a track just for the Zucchini Races.”
Other past market directors including Renee and Joel Kiff also contributed to the evolution of the annual August races.
Kelley helped at this year’s Zucchini Festival, volunteering to take the entries for the zucchini decoration and the race itself, and serving on the small vote-monitoring panel along with Brigette Mansell and Susan Rose.
Modest prizes are provided by local vendors for the winners in each of three categories—weight, decoration and race performance—at three age levels. Prizes range from gift certificates up to $50 for some first-place winners to $2 in “market bucks” for all entrants. Key local sponsors included Pizzando-Spoonbar, Shelton’s
Natural Foods and Copperfield’s Books.
Participation was modest but enthusiastic: 36 entries competed in the Decorated Zuke categories; the biggest squash measured out at 12.165 pounds (way to go, Fritz Carlson) and while there were 26 heats down the ramp in the races, it was too much fun to determine a winner. For current Market Director Janet Ciel, the purpose of the event couldn’t be more clear. “The point of the event is to have fun. I’m not sure what other point there should be,” she said. “This is just about the joy of it.”

BIGGEST One sure category for a Zucchini Festival is the biggest squash on stage, clearly a multigenerational effort. This year’s winner was Fritz Carlson, with a zuke weighing over 12 pounds.
OFF TO THE RACES As race director Joe Nagel, left, prepares to give the word, Paul Willard (in green hat) and Joe Naujokas steady the zucchini cars during the countdown before the decorated veggies head down the track on apple and cucumber wheels.

traffic. It was clear I couldn’t do it alone. Within minutes, a man in a truck stopped. He quickly assessed the situation and told me he’d help. He lifted the rack and bike out of the road, asked me to move my car to a safer spot, and then proceeded to pull out what seemed like a whole toolbox from his truck—he told me he was a contractor—and fixed the problem. He reattached the rack and bike securely to my car, made sure I was safe and ready to go, and then simply said goodbye.
His name was Scott. He didn’t know me, didn’t owe me anything and even joked that he usually wouldn’t stop for a cyclist because they tend to annoy him—but that day, he did. And I’m so grateful that he did.
In a time when our city and country often feel deeply divided, it was a beautiful reminder that kindness still exists— freely given, without conditions. That small act of human decency made a big impact on me.
Thank you Scott, wherever you are, for being my roadside angel that day.

Healdsburg Police officers responded to a report of an assault at Byron Gibbs Park at 5:27pm on Sunday, Aug. 3. When they arrived on the scene, on Prentice Drive near Sunnyvale Drive, they found a woman in her 70s bleeding profusely from her head.
She related that she and her husband, from the East Bay region, had been visiting the area and went to Gibbs Park to use the public restroom. While returning to their vehicle, they responded sympathetically to a woman asking for help, who in turn pulled a gun on the couple and demanded their possessions and vehicle, hitting the man’s wife in the head with a handgun.
A second woman emerged and the two of them took possession of the vehicle and attempted to flee. When they started to drive the car away, however, they were unable to work the manual transmission. They then abducted the male of the victimized couple to drive the vehicle, and headed south on Hwy 101 toward the Bay Area.
As the officers heard the story they called an ambulance for the injured woman and put out an all-points bulletin for the stolen vehicle. A short time later the Petaluma Police Department located the vehicle traveling south on Hwy 101, and a pursuit ensued.
Involved agencies included the Petaluma Police Department, the CHP, the

Dry Creek Rancheria is made up of approximately 1,300 Tribal members, more than 60% of whom live in Sonoma County.
Marin County Sheriff, the San Rafael Police Department and the Sonoma County Sheriff.
With the chase underway, the kidnap victim driving the vehicle ran it off the road twice, first at Kastania Road near the county line, then again between Novato and San Rafael in Marin County.
With law enforcement in active pursuit, the two suspects attempted to flee but were taken into custody. The reluctant driver was unhurt and later reunited with his wife.
In photographs released by the Petaluma Police Department, the vehicle appears to be a 2017 Subaru Forester. Some models do have a physical manual transmission, where both the shift lever and clutch pedal are engaged to change gears.
A juvenile victim associated with the suspects was located in the car and is safe. No name is being released for this person, who is not a suspect.
Davina Humphrey, a 51-year-old female from Oakland, and Amina Vaden, a 24-year-old female also from Oakland, were both arrested and charged with a number of crimes including kidnapping, carjacking, robbery, assault with a firearm and willful discharge, child abuse and elder abuse, various weapons charges and conspiracy.
Bail was initially set at over $1 million each, but was subsequently changed to no-bail status. As of this report they are still in custody awaiting trial.
According to the Sonoma County Tribal Affairs office, “Federally recognized Indian tribes can develop lands held in trust by the federal government without regard to local land use plans, such as the County General Plan. Such developments can result in significant adverse impacts on the county, its citizenry, services, lands, and infrastructure that the county may not have the ability to mitigate.”
Gaming
In March 2000, California voters passed Proposition 1A, the Gambling on Tribal Lands Amendment, approving Indian gaming on reservation lands. Dry Creek Rancheria opened River Rock Casino in 2002, which has been in operation since then.
About 80 tribal gaming casinos exist in California, 42 of them in the northern part of the state. The most recently announced is the Shiloh Resort and Casino on the southern border of Windsor, about halfway between the Graton Rancheria in Rohnert Park and River Rock
in Geyserville. The Koi Tribe of Pomo, traditionally from Lake County, successfully applied to build the resort which was approved in the closing days of the Biden administration.
That project would be a 538,000square-foot casino with 2,750 gaming devices, a five-story hotel with 400 rooms and more than 5,000 parking spaces. Three local tribes—the Lytton Rancheria of California, the Cloverdale Rancheria and the Dry Creek Rancheria—filed a lawsuit in federal court in February challenging federal approval of the Koi Nation’s casino project.
Tourist Attraction
If the Caesars Republic project is completed by its target date of 2027, it will add to several reasons why visitors might want to visit Geyserville. “Caesars Republic Sonoma County will also offer a robust food and beverage line-up, including a steakhouse, an upscale café, an Asian concept and an elevated quick-service option,” listed the statement from Caesars Entertainment.
“Additionally, guests will be able to enjoy a fireside bar, a sports bar and the resort’s dedicated wine bar, which will have an outdoor deck providing unparalleled views of the valley.”
