Dog About Town
Dear Editor,
My name is Solito. I am a Healdsburg resident and a passionate reader of The Healdsburg Tribune. You may have seen me around town—I frequent the plaza, selected sidewalks, the bookstores and many of the cafes with outdoor seating. I could call myself...
Greyhounds End Long Winless Drought
It had been three years, or as the whisper throughout the crowd put it more exactly, 1,072 days, since the Healdsburg Hounds Varsity football team had won a game. But last Friday night, in front of the jam-packed home grandstands, the Hounds ended that losing streak with a 35-21 win over the neighboring Cloverdale Eagles...
Greyhounds winning big at Rec Park
The Healdsburg Greyhounds varsity baseball team continues to put up the numbers in its 2026 season, both in league games—they are 4-1—and overall with a 10-3 record. They only lost one game at home all year, an unfortunate 10-1 fail against Analy on March 25.
Does Labeling Mean the End of the Wine Boom?
Earlier this month, U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy issued a new advisory highlighting the connection between alcohol consumption and a higher risk of cancer.

Shakespeare in the Piazza, with pizza
'Two Gentlemen of Verona' is one of Shakespeare’s earlier works. I’ve always thought it was one of the Bard’s easier plays to follow, written before he got all “Shakespeare-y.” It’s the tale of besties Valentine and Proteus whose friendship is tested by, of course, a woman.
Healdsburg Teens Bring Algae Battery to Climate Fest
Among the 70-plus environmental information booths slated to line the Healdsburg Plaza for the town’s second annual Climate Fest on April 21, is one that might stink a little: Three teens from Healdsburg High School have plans to show off a large battery pack they made out of living algae.
‘The Row’: The other Mill district
It’s with an eye toward making the most of that most valuable of assets—parking in Healdsburg—that Mat Humphrey is filling up the available leases on the property at 44 Mills St. one by one, and staggering their prime hours so the lot is productively filled as much as possible. The highest and best use, one might say, to echo the realtor’s mantra.

Blues from the Hill Country
“Modern Mississippi music.” If you ask singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Luther Dickinson to define what the North Mississippi Allstars (NMA) create, that’s the answer he’ll give. It’s the path he and his brother Cody have been traveling down ever since NMA dropped their 2000 debut, Shake Hands with Shorty, and one the band members will share when they hit stages on their latest tour.
