During the flood of 1995, Together in Pajaro jumped into action to help the residents of Pajaro. This strengthened the desire amongst the board members to promote community.
A loosely organized group calling itself the Friends of the Pajaro Park was formed to secure funding for operating and maintaining of the park. The Friends of Pajaro Park raised funds to support the first five years of the Park’s operations. They realized the necessity of forming a nonprofit organization and approached the remaining members of TIP therefor Together in Pajaro and Friends of Pajaro Park merged in 2013.
Pajaro Park now serves as a place to meet friends, enjoy a game of basketball or soccer, or participate in the many activities held at the park.
The next step for the organization was to ensure its continuity. After receiving advice from Santa Cruz County United Way and Pajaro Valley Health Trust, the Board approached the Central Coast YMCA about providing a part-time Executive Director and administrative management for the newly revitalized nonprofit. The YMCA agreed and another partnership was formed. TIP is once again a uniting force in the community dedicated to bringing much needed services and support to the people of Pajaro.
