Welcome!

Please join us in restoring Daniels School - A 120 year old one room school located at: 8162 Mill Creek Road in Healdsburg, California. The County Landmarks Commission of Sonoma County has clamied Daniels School the 186th Historic Landmark on 09/18/2001!

The Venado Historical Society is a non-profit organization designed to protect the local history of Healdsburg's Mill Creek Road. Fundraising began in May 2010 and $6,000 of the $10,000 needed to meet Sonoma County requirements and building permits has been generously donated by the local residents and the community at large. Many donations have come from children and grandchildren of former students as well as Healdsburg merchants.

We need to raise an additional $25,000 to rebuild, furnish, and maintain the structure in order to provide educational experiences for local school children and residents alike.

Please help with our fundraising campaign with any size, tax deductible contribution. It's as easy as clicking a button! Just follow the "donate" buttons we have already set up just below this welcome message - pick a denomination that you are comfortable with and send us your donation securely and safely via PayPal! We have already received donations for the design, labor, flooring, and any and all donations will be greatly appreciated.

Also, the Venado Historical Society has its own address now and even a mailbox. So if you prefer to mail in your donations, you can do so here:

Big John's Market - A Brief History

In 1994 Kim & John Lloyd came up from Southern California looking for the small town quality of life and a potential business opportunity and settled in Healdsburg, Sonoma County. They took over the former Deluxe Foods located at the intersection of Healdsburg Avenue and Dry Creek Road.

When asked about the name, John Lloyd quickly points out that "BIG JOHN" isn't a personal nickname. The "BIG" is an acronym for Better Independent Grocers.

Big John's Market serves the Healdsburg, Geyserville, Alexander Valley, and Dry Creek Valley areas as well as Cloverdale to the North and Windsor to the South.

In 2006 the building and fixtures were completely renovated bringing a fresh new look and adding a food service court and outdoor seating.

Carreras Auto Body Lifetime Guarantee on Auto Repairs

What makes Carreras Auto Body different?

Carreras Auto Body, the Sonoma County auto body shop located in Healdsburg has a reputation for quality repairs, honest technicians and a lifetime guarantee on repairs. Carreras auto body is a one location repair facility giving you the advantage of dealing directly with the owners. Unlike multi location repair facilities, where service and quality sometimes go's unchecked, you can be reassured your vehicle has been thoroughly tested and inspected for safety, appearance and performance.

"We have a reputation for honesty because we use high-quality parts and do the right repairs to bring your vehicle back to its original condition. And we never hide the deductable from your insurance companies by pumping up the estimate for the repair costs. By doing that, those shops put the customer at risk of fines and being charged with insurance fraud. Our customers would rather get honest repairs at a fair price than risky gimmicks."

—Dan Vassallo

At Carreras Auto Body we guarantee your work for as long as you own your car.

How can we offer such a great guarantee?

We have experienced employees who get ongoing training and updated equipment that lets us do better repairs. In fact, Carreras Auto Body employees are certified in airbag replacement, frame repair, electronics and auto body painting as well as I-CAR and GM Certified. Our technicians are permanent employees and have been with us for years.

And the shop invests in the newest equipment, including laser and computer frame straightening and paintless dent repair equipment, for complete repair services. We screen our employees thoroughly and we make sure they're all skilled, reliable and polite.

Clients tell us they feel more comfortable because they know their technicians. Some customers even ask for their favorite techs by name when they bring their cars in.

For over 30 years Carreras Auto Body has provided quality repairs and honest service at fair pricing that doesn't put customers at risk.

In 1967, John K. Max founded a company that manufactured components for the urethane processing industry. An early innovation in this field was a wide range, precision flow meter to provide closed loop flow control in the blending process. Tight machining tolerances and close attention to assembly and testing delivered the meters that redefined accuracy in the cast urethane market. Outside industries quickly realized the value of these precision devices and now Max meters are used worldwide in a broad cross section of industries.
