DR. MASE ORDERS FLU SHOTS FOR HEALTH CARE WORKERS

COMBINED FLU/ COVID/RSV INFECTIONS FEARED IN THE COMING WINTER

By Christian Kallen

Flu season, generally from Nov. 1 to May 31, arrives this year as Sonoma Coun ty continues to fight the ongoing COVID-19 pan demic. Dr. Sundari Mase, the Sonoma County health officer, warned of the po tential risks of both vi ruses circulating in the community at the same time this winter, which could put a strain on hospi tal resources.

“As Sonoma County works to reduce trans mission of COVID-19, influenza season is fast approaching,” Mase said. “The flu and COVID-19 will likely be spreading at the same time, and relaxed COVID-19 mitigation measures may result in an increase in flu activity dur ing the upcoming season. Influenza is preventable with a vaccine that is cur rently available.”

Also on the radar: a feared increase in respira tory syncytial virus (RSV), which usually affects chil dren under two but can have serious impacts on the health of seniors as well.

As she has in previ ous years, Mase is argu ing for increased vigilance over the coming flu sea son by recommending flu shots for everyone—and requiring them for health care workers in certain health care and congregate facilities.

“The flu vaccine requirement applies to all workers who have the potential for direct or indi rect exposure to patients or residents,” read a press release from the Depart ment of Health Services.

“Workers include nurses,

Day of Dead Brings out Community

SONOMA COUNTY GATHERS AT PLAZA PARK FOR 6TH ANNUAL DIA DE MUERTOS

By Christian Kallen

Much-loved cars whose trunks were open to imaginative ofrenda, al tars in tribute to the de parted, lined Matheson Street. Children dressed as monarch butter flies flitted down mari gold petal paths. Aztec dancers stepped and rat tled to a racing heart of drums, as incense float ed through the midday air at Plaza Park last Sunday afternoon.

It was the annual Dia de Muertos in Healdsburg, the sixth since the Mex ican custom was locally revived in 2016. Though it was quiet and restrained in 2020—a particularly poignant time for a cel ebration for the recently departed—2022 marked the year it came roaring back. The social, family and traditional aspects of the commemoration were all on display, and the town came alive in ways it rarely has lately.

"Community gather ings like Dia de Los Muer tos are built on commu nity trust to invite those that may not always feel included on our plaza,” Mayor Ozzy Jimenez

told the Tribune. He called out in particular to Yolanda Giron and Leticia Romero, strong leaders who have played impor tant roles in supporting community life.

Estimates are that about 4,000 people showed up, and it seemed that most of them stayed all day, until the music stopped at 6pm. They were representative of a population that doesn’t often show up in large numbers for downtown Healdsburg events. The crowds—mainly families, with grandparents speak ing Spanish, children speaking English and the

WINE & FOOD AFFAIR IS HEADING OUR WAY

24TH ANNUAL EVENT PROMISES BOTH QUALITY OF REFRESHMENT AND QUANTITY OF ATTENDEES

By Christian Kallen

One of the events that has pinned Healdsburg at the epicenter of California’s Wine Country, and which year after year increases its visibility, is the Wine & Food Affair.

It takes place this week end for the 24th season,

one of three signature events from the Wine Road association of nearly 200 wineries.

From Balletto Vine yards on Occidental Road between Santa Rosa and Sebastopol to the south; Roth Estate on Chalk Hill Road to the east; J. Rick ards in Cloverdale; and a slew of tasting rooms throughout the Dry Creek, Alexander and Russian River Valleys, the local map is chockablock full of wineries participating in this feast of oenological wonders.

Attendance at this weekend’s event is expected to be high, like other post-pandemic activ ities that have seen soaring participation. For locals, it might be seen as a time to nest or rest at home with your own favorite dish and a bottle; but taking

Memorializing With Merriment

CELEBRATION COMBINES AZTEC, CHRISTIAN AND NEW WORLD TRADITIONS

By Pierre Ratte

Healdsburg’s Plaza was alive with Dia de los Muertos celebrations re cently. Pathways in the plaza were chalked with flor de muerto, marigold petals were strewn about, exhibits were on display, and vintage cars and tricked-out trucks from Chicano Truckin were parked on the perimeter. Some offered trick or treat candy, while others

displayed ofrenda, altars to passed loved ones.

Calaveras, calacas, ofrenda, music, cos tumes, dancing, food and people abounded amongst the spirits of the dead.

The Dia de los Muer tos festival is, reportedly, a combination of Aztec, Christian and New World traditions. The Aztec rev erence for those passed, mixed with Christianity’s All Souls Day, began to emerge as a two-day fes tival in Mexico. It spread through Latin America, the Philippines and many places in the U.S.

An emblematic skull painted on peoples’ faces in black and white with a joker-esque smile may be hard to reckon for people not familiar with the holiday. However, when you know that the dead frown on sadness, the smiles become an expression of buried wis dom. Dia de los Muertos is a unique holiday cel ebrating death with joy, observing the continua tion of life through the ages, honoring the past and living fully in the present.

Fun facts: Dia de los Muertos is a multi-day

FUNDRAISER FOR WINE LIBRARY SET FOR NOV. 10

‘NEXT GEN’ PANEL LOOKS INTO THE FUTURE OF SONOMA WINE

By Christian Kallen

The Healdsburg-based Sonoma County Wine Library Association is bringing back its So noma County Wine Leg ends event this year, after a three-year hiatus, on Thursday, Nov. 10, at the Steele Lane Community Center in Santa Rosa.

The Legends fund raiser returns to feature a panel of five “next gen” professionals of the local wine community. Wine writer and sommelier Christopher Sawyer will moderate a panel discus sion with five legends-inthe-making, most of them second or even third-gen eration wine profession als whose roots are in Sonoma County viticul ture and wine making.

There are several familiar names among the panelists: Jamie Ben ziger, winemaker at Sonoma Valley’s Imagery Wine Estates, is daugh ter of organic wine pio neer Mike Benziger; Shelly Rafanelli, current winemaker and owner of Dry Creek’s A. Rafanelli Wines; Alan Ramey, pres ident of Ramey Wine Cel lars, founded by his par ents, David and Carla Ramey of Healdsburg; Drew Damskey, son of Kerry and Daisy Damskey, is now winemaker/con sultant at Palmeri Wines

of Geyserville; and Mari Jones, president of Emeri tus Vineyards, is daughter and successor to Russian River winemaker Brice Jones.

In addition to discuss ing the past, present and future of the Sonoma County wine industry, the panelists will be pouring their wines during the reception, and a charcute rie platter will be offered. To help support the wine library’s mission, a silent auction will feature spe cial wines, gifts and winecountry experiences; details of the silent auc tion are forthcoming.

“Year after year, our Legends event has always been the biggest fundraiser for the Wine Library,” said Julie Pedron celli St. John, president of the Sonoma County Wine Library Association (and herself a third-generation winemaker). “We’re look ing forward to resuming this ‘fun-raiser’ and are grateful for the support of our wine community here in Sonoma County and beyond.”

Dedicated in 1989, the Sonoma County Wine

Library is the definitive historical archive of the North Coast wine industry, located at the Healdsburg Regional Library (139 Piper St.). The esteemed collection includes 5,000 books (with over 1,000 rare books dating back to 1514), subscrip tions to some 40 period icals and more. It is open to the public, and many though not all books can be checked out by patrons.

Megan Jones has been the librarian at the Wine Library for five years, coming over to Healds burg from Napa. “The Wine Library is primar ily funded by Sonoma County Library, but the contributions of the Sonoma County Wine Library Association are vital to helping us achieve the Wine Library’s mis sion,” Jones told the Tribune

“Their support allows us to work on special proj ects, purchase particu larly expensive books or periodicals, and provide upgrades to the space,” Jones continued. She promises to be at the Santa Rosa event on Nov. 10.

Hounds Season Comes to an End With Senior Night

HEALDSBURG’S GRIDIRON VARSITY PLANS TO CAP THE YEAR WITH A W

By Christian Kallen

The Healdsburg Grey hounds football team has had a difficult year, and returns to their home field for the season’s last game on Friday, Nov. 4.

Although the 2021 record of 3-6 raised hopes that the Hounds could compete this year, to this point they are win less—with only one game left in the season. But the loyal fans keep showing up and it’s expected they will do so on Friday for the Senior Night match against Piner High at Rec Park, starting at 7pm.

The varsity Grey hounds hope to end the so-far winless sea son with a victory against Piner, whose 0-3 league record is the same as Healdsburg’s. As they say, something’s gotta give.

“Friday’s game is going to be a good game—two teams are looking for a win in the league, and we’re both good teams,” said Coach Robert “Bear” Gray. “In fact, I know we’re a good team.”

He ascribes the diffi cult season the team has endured as being due to its relative youth, with

no JV team to act as a training ground for the younger players. “I’m just glad the kids aren’t dis appointed in the sea son—we play hard and don’t let up,” Gray said.

The coach said he got his nickname “from being a bear on the foot ball field, a very big quick guy.” He played line backer for a couple col lege teams, including for SSU the year they won a state championship.

Recent games have seen Healdsburg lose to three of its four Redwood League rivals: Their last previous home game saw an Oct. 14 loss to Ukiah, 46-6. Two road games followed, to Maria Car rillo 43-0 on Oct. 21; and last week they fell to league-leader St. Vincent de Paul, 43-6.

Senior Night is a chance for the team to recognize the last game of its most experienced players, and for fans to say goodbye to the ath letes who are moving on to other endeavors (or sports, as many HHS students are multi-sport athletes).

Graduating next June will be the follow ing Greyhounds foot ball players: running back and safety Cameron Pippi (8), defensive end Reef Cawvy (9), quarter back and safety Jeremiah

Michener Jr. (14), tight end and defensive back Otis Hardin (15), defen sive tackle and center Alexis Garcia (53), guard and middle linebacker Victor Onate (55), and offensive and defensive tackle Eddie Silva (77).

Moving on While all of them will be missed when next year’s team takes the field for the 2023 season, it’s like ly Cameron Pippi’s ab sence will be felt the most. According to cu mulative statistics as of

Oct. 21, he leads his team in several offensive cate gories and ranks high in NCS statistics as well.

Among them: per game average yards rushing (70.3), yards receiving (11), and from the other side of the line, sacks (3). The all-around player also placed sec ond in tackles per game, just below sophomore Nathaniel Rowland at about 8 each.

Pippi also ran for four touchdowns, almost half of the team’s total scores. The other five

were scored by sopho more quarterback Jere miah Tinsley, one pass reception and four on the rush, including his fifth TD in last week’s St. Vincent game’s fourth quarter.

Pippi, who has been playing football for nine years since Pop Warner play, hopes to continue with the sport when he goes to SRJC next year, but has no illusions about stardom on the big stage: He envisions working in construction or firefighting.

“I would like to thank all my friends and family for supporting me, and a huge thanks to my dad for pushing me every day,” he told the Tribune His father, Mario Pippi, was born and raised in Healdsburg and is proud of his son for “giving it all” to the game, even this year. “He’s fun to watch,” he said proudly. Jeremiah Michener Jr. is moving on to Shasta Community Col lege after his final year as

➝ 4 a Greyhound, though he will suit up for baseball this coming spring.

“I know being a Hound hasn't been easy this sea son, but through all the struggle, I’m happy with all these teammates who have become more of a family through the year, and helping me through my injuries and chal lenges,” Michener said.

Wait ’Till Next Year

Even without the depart ing seniors, there’s reason to hold out hope for the Hounds next year. Tinsley is coming back next year, as is QB Michener. Junior Wyatt Dugan Jr. has been a productive quarter back and running back. And running back Alex ander Harris, who leads the team with 252 yards returned on kickoffs and punts, is only a freshman.

“We’re young, man! We’re doing the best we can for what we have; I’m really proud of that,” said Coach Gray. In fact, 25 of the 32-man roster may be returning next year, pos sibly to play a more com petitive season.

The lopsided records of many teams, both good and bad, has led sev eral schools to lobby the North Coast Section for a new configuration of foot ball leagues, though this would not affect other VVAL sports.

The proposal would have four groups to com pete on a more level play ing field. Group 4 would include Healdsburg as well as Terra Linda, Archie Williams, Piner, San Rafael, Sonoma Val ley, Novato and Elsie Allen. (Group 1, the top league, would include powerhouses Cardinal Newman, Marin Catho lic, Rancho Cotate, Vin tage, Windsor and San Marin.)

The conference realignment, if it meets with final approval, would not go into effect until 2024, and run on a trial basis through 2028.

This year’s final Healdsburg High football game will be played at Rec Park against Piner High on Nov. 4. Varsity kickoff time is 7pm.

Wine & Food Affair Returns

part in what has almost become an international event has its own value and reward: People are always impressed by locals.

Yet the arrival of lit erally thousands of wine lovers to Healdsburg this coming weekend is sure to have an impact on the immediate region, and residents are not all or always enthusiastic. In fact, the Wine & Food Affair has in the past been one of the notable excesses that has caused the county to review and propose limits on winery events.

Special Winery Event regulations have been developed over the past several years and were recently proposed to the Board of Supervisors; two local areas—Sonoma Valley and Dry Creek

Valley—have worked through their own local regulations as part of the process.

But when the Super visors met this week, on Nov. 1, to hear a staff presentation on winery events ordinance, they questioned why the new regulations applied only to new and pending per mits, and all standing permits were exempt. They voted for another rewrite of the Winery Event regulations, which is not expected to be complete until next year. (Follow the process at permitsonoma.org/reg ulationsandinitiatives/ wineryevents.)

The Epicenter Healdsburg’s standing in the wine world is assured by the geographical per fection of its location: It

sits at the crossroads of three key appellations, Dry Creek Valley, Rus sian River Valley and Alexander Valley, and within hailing distance of a subset of sub-ap pellations as Chalk Hill, Rockpile, Knights Val ley, Green Valley and a few others. (Appella tion is the Old World term for officially desig nated wine-growing re gions; those in the U.S. are called American Viti cultural Areas, or AVAs.)

While wine is the de facto center of the table for this weekend’s event, the food is not to be overlooked—and a good thing too, as tast ing at even a small hand ful of wineries can have consequences for the undernourished.

Each participating winery offers a taste of

gourmet cuisine paired with the wine of their choice. You may for instance choose to pair bacon fudge brown ies with a syrah port; or enjoy a New England clam chowder with a roomy chardonnay; have your mac & cheese with pulled ham paired with pinot noir; or dig into braised meatball sliders with a robust zinfandel.

Event Highlights

The event officially takes place Saturday and Sun day, Nov. 5-6, at 50 of the area’s wineries, but a handful will kick things off with their own special event on Friday night, Nov. 4. These include live music at Baldassari Wines in Windsor with the husband-wife duo Rain; a blend-you-ownbottle class at Colagrossi Wines, also in Windsor; a barbecue at Viszlay Vineyards on Limerick Lane; and a sunset cab ernet library tasting at West Wines in Dry Creek

Unlike in previous years, there was no Sat urday Only ticket option, just a two-day pass for $125 and a Sunday Only ticket for $95; desig nated drivers can sam ple the food for just $25. If all this sounds like too much to choose from, don’t worry: Tickets are fully sold out.

Ticket holders are asked to choose which of the 50 participat ing wineries to pick up their tickets, where they will get a wristband, a wine glass and an event map. It’s no longer nec essary to choose the win eries you intend to visit, though be forewarned some might be so popu lar that they occasionally cannot take any more visitors.

In fact, attendance is limited at many tasting rooms, and tour buses of wine lovers roaming the byways of Sonoma County are forbidden for the weekend. Even so, drivers and pedestri ans throughout the area are encouraged to focus on safety and caution, because you never know from where the other guy is coming.

The Wine Road was founded in 1976, so its 50th anniversary is com ing up soon. Other signa ture Wine Road events in addition to the Food & Wine Affair include Winter Wineland on Jan. 14-15, 2023; the popular Barrel Tasting on March 3-5; and a few special events throughout the year, such as a Wine making 101 with Carol Shelton on Jan. 7, 2023.

How to Love a Shrub

TART, SMART BEVERAGES FOR THE SEASON

By Brooke Herron

When I say that shrubs are my new obsession, I’m not talking about the garden variety.

A shrub (of the drink ing variety) is a concen trated syrup of sugar, fruit and vinegar that is most often based on apple cider vinegar. These delicious tart little syrups add brightness, sweetness and acidity to cocktails (traditional or non alcoholic) and therefore have become increasingly popular with bartenders.

In Sonoma County and the North Bay in particular, shrubs have been embraced as a must-have behind the best bars—partially due to the prevalence of apples here. However,

Ridge Farms also makes a yummy GravensteinFuji apple cider vine gar shrub, made from their organically farmed apples.

Griffo Distillery in Petaluma uses fla vored apple cider vin egar shrubs from Lit tle Apple Treats in some of their signature cock tails. The distillery also sells a selection of Little Apple Treats shrubs in their shop. Ellen Cavalli at Tilted Shed Cider makes her own shrubs with apple cider vine gar made from apples grown on her farm and serves low alcohol cider shrub spritzers at the cidery’s Windsor tasting room.

The Fern Bar in Sebastopol makes their own flavored shrubs from local apple cider vinegars and keeps these behind the bar to use in cocktails. While over at The Barlow in Sebasto pol, Golden State Cider

Flu Shots

physicians, technicians, therapists and pharma cists at such facilities as acute care hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, psychiatric hospitals, dial ysis centers, dental offices and others.”

The order takes effect Nov. 1, and workers must be in compliance by Nov. 30. Anyone granted an exemption must wear a surgical mask or respirator at all times while in indoor work settings, according to the health order.

Christina Harris, the communications manager of Healdsburg Hospital, Providence, told the Tri bune that the hospital was “encouraging caregivers to get their flu shots ahead of our annual Oct. 31 com pliance deadline.” She said that flu vaccinations began to be given at the end of September, and the process should have been completed by Oct. 31.

“Our team will visit each unit to give the vac cines. If a caregiver cannot

get a flu shot, they must submit a declination form, in line with … the health order. Participation in our flu program is required, either through vaccination or declination by our Oct. 31 deadline.”

Matt Brown, the Department of Health Services communications officer, clarified that this requirement is not a new one this year. “This is not a new health order. Sonoma County’s health officer has issued a flu vaccine health order for health care work ers since at least 2017.”

The order is enforce able under the health

officer’s powers in the state health and safety code.

Mase also issued a strong recommendation that the general public, including first respond ers, get the flu vaccine this flu season. “First responders who decline to get the influenza vaccine are strongly encouraged to wear a medical-grade mask when interacting with the public or while working indoors.”

Flu vaccines are widely available through primary health care providers, health clinics, pharmacies and some COVID vaccine clinics.

This is not a new health order. Sonoma County’s health officer has issued a flu vaccine health order for health care workers since at least 2017.

Some health care pro fessionals are also con cerned about a possible “tri-demic,” with an out break of respiratory syn cytial virus (RSV) added to the mix. RSV usually affects children under two, though anyone can con tract the ailment. Adults 65 and over and adults with chronic conditions or weakened immune sys tems are at high risk for developing severe RSV.

Mase agrees, and has outlined the follow ing precautions: “To pre vent spread or becom ing infected: Cover your cough and sneezes with tissue or the upper part

of your shirt; wash your hands; avoid close con tact with others; clean frequently touched sur faces; avoid interact ing with people with cold like symptoms, especially children at risk for severe RSV, including premature infants, children under two years with chronic lung or heart conditions and children with weak ened immune systems.”

in-between generation alternating between the two—spilled over onto nearby streets which had been closed by the city to give the event a bigger footprint.

The Matheson side of the Plaza was pre dominantly tricked-out cars or trucks that were turned into imagina tive ofrenda, decorated with images at once ghastly, humorous and

commercial. Food trucks and vendors lined the other sides of the Plaza, a zona de niños attracted all ages and music came from everywhere.

“Sunday’s event, a collaboration between Corazón Healdsburg and the City, was a beauti ful celebration of coming together as a community and honoring traditions of Día de Muertos,” said Vice Mayor Ariel Kelley.

“Each year, the event grows and matures, and this year was the best one yet.”

That opinion—that it was the best one yet— was the consensus. “We work together every year to make this an event that ensures that the Plaza and other down town spaces are enjoyed as much by the people who live here as the peo ple who visit here,” said Marcy Flores, Corazón Healdsburg’s interim executive director.

“Everything Corazón

does is only made pos sible with the support of our community. This event this year was no exception, with volun teers organizing the altars, hosting the stage program and perform ing. It was a very spe cial day!”

During the silent year of 2020, Corazón Healdsburg created a virtual and informative web page at diademuertoshealdsburg. com, which is still recommended.

TRADITION Performers with Danza Xantotl begin the celebration.
