Schulz retired and produced his final
cartoon strip on Jan. 3, 2000, then passed away less than six weeks
later from illness. His memory lives in the joy and upbeat outlook his
characters and cartoons have brought to readers around the globe.
Santa Rosa broke ground on the Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research
Center in June 2001, fittingly across the street from the Redwood Empire
Ice Arena which is also known as Snoopy's Home Ice. The museum
opened on August 17, 2002, and has attracted travelers from around the
world to Santa Rosa. The museum has been instrumental in opening Santa
Rosa's hospitality doormat to a unique audience. Vacationers,
students and scholars come to see the rotating, themed exhibits, and
discover many bonuses. Fine hotels, cuisine and wine are some of the
bounties that you'll find in Santa Rosa and the surrounding region. If
you're planning on visiting San Francisco or Napa wine country, do add
the Charles M. Schulz Museum to your itinerary. It will not disappoint
your sensibilities, not your sense of humor.
