David's Story
School
After Mt. Eden, I went up to Cal State for my general education. In 1975 I transferred to Chico State and graduated in 1978 with a B.A. in Recreartion Administration. After interning in Santa Cruz, the City offered me a job in the Parks Department where I still work leading maintenance crews. I also attended a couple community colleges rounding out my sciences and horticultural studies.

In short, I did my gen ed at Hayward State, transferred after two years after visiting a good friend (John Varga) in Chico. I decided to transfer to Chico and later graduated with a B.A. in Rec Administration. While I was there I had a great job at the Graduate, made some excellent friends, and drank a lot of beer.

A new master plan was approved in 2015, and we've begun several upgrade projects. There are over 4000 pilings that support the 1/2 mile long wharf. The water is approximately 35' deep at the end, and those pilings are 70' long. I love my work and where I do it at. I've spent my entire career working for the City of Santa Cruz and feel fortunate to have done so and lived here these years.
Update: 2019.
I retired from the City of Santa Cruz December 29, 2017.
I’ve been enjoying a fair amount of travel and construction work with and for friends. I’ve been sailing the San Juan’s and visiting Italy, Sicily, New Zealand as well as Nashville, Memphis, Santa Fe and other drivable California destinations.
I have two dogs.
