Thanks to everyone who attended the Rio Nido Centennial Celebration on Sunday, December 19th. Over 200 people braved the wet weather conditions to make gingerbread houses, donate canned food to the Redwood Empire Food Bank, share their favorite potluck item, visit the historic Rio Nido Lodge, and share memories that will most assuredly linger. Guests included long-time Russian River families, home owners, local government officials, and local business owners–ages ranged from babies to folks in their 90’s.
Special thanks to the Rio Nido Roadhouse, Rio Nido Lodge, Rio Nido Home Owner’s Association, Russian River Historical Society, and the Friends of Rio Nido, who all helped with donating space, festive decorating, preparing food, providing activities, and historical information and memorabilia.

 The North Bay Bohemian published a story about Rio Nido, the Rio Nido Lodge, and Pegasus theater this week.
“Most residents seem to agree. ‘Rio Nido is one of the most beautiful places in the world,’ asserts [Dennis] Judd, ‘with the incredible redwoods and the Russian River. It’s a gorgeous spot, and the Lodge is a great building—it just hasn’t been utilized to its fullest potential in a long, long time. My hope is that, one way or another, the Rio Nido Lodge will be a place for people to come and heal, just as the town of Rio Nido is healing itself.'”
“It’s a Wonderful Life” presented by the Pegasus Theater runs through Sunday, December 19. Friday and Saturday evening performances start at 8pm. Sunday matinees begin at 2pm. General admission on Saturdays and Sundays is $15 and $5 for children under 12. Fridays are pay-what-you-can. For reservation and ticket information click here.
Thanks to Claire Harris and Stephen Pizzo for sharing this vintage poster with us.
