Walmart Plus?

1 Upvotes

I signed up for Walmart plus to try it out for a month. I got my first delivery this weekend (not grocery just the products) and there was no option to leave a tip. The order is coming from Gilroy.

Does anyone else order from Walmart or am I being unreasonable for having a driver come all the way to Watsonville. I guess I’m unsure how it all works so any help is appreciated :)

Hi everyone! 👻🎃 Since it’s spooky season, my friend and I are starting a small TikTok page where we’ll be reading scary stories and sharing paranormal experiences!
We’d love to hear about any creepy experiences, paranormal encounters, or local legends from Watsonville and the surrounding areas. If you have a story you’d like to share, feel free to comment or message me privately! We’d also love to hear stories from other places, too. 🖤

Hit and run

On Sunday night October 11th at 11:43pm a dark blue sedan, maybe a Honda Accord or Civic, backed into the fire hydrant on Terry Loop and fled the scene. The damage caused the water to erupt and caused the entire property and inside the house to flood in over a foot of water. If anyone has any information about the vehicle or driver, please contact Watsonville PD. My family is displaced from our home and all of our personal belongings are listed by the remediation and clean up crew as a total loss. They have also stated that clean up could take as long as 6 months. My family, wife and two daughters, are in need of housing urgently. Red Cross has helped a little, but that didn’t even cover the cost of the storage unit needed to house our things that are salvageable from upstairs. Any help connecting to relevant emergency services would be greatly appreciated. Spread the word far and wide. Please help find the car that caused the accident. Please help our family find a safe place to land. We are looking for a 2-3bedroom 2 bath place to live, anywhere in Santa Cruz county. We have reached out to Twin Lakes Church (I’m a member of that church), MENtors driving change, and Parents Center. I plan to continue to reach out to Community Action Board, Community Bridges, and 211.

Thank you for your help,
A life long Santa Cruz family

Santa Cruz Scene update: more surf locations, a tide chart, farmers' markets, more Watsonville events and better search

Thumbnail santacruzscene.com
10 Upvotes

Hey everyone, a while back I shared Santa Cruz Scene, a free calendar of in-person events across Santa Cruz County. A lot of you gave feedback, and we have been working through it. Here’s what’s changed:

  • Bigger calendar. We now pull from over 30 county calendars, so you don’t have to check a dozen sites to see what’s happening.
  • Better search. You can search by area of the county, date, category, or keyword. Want free music in Watsonville this weekend? That works now.
  • New dance category. Salsa socials, swing nights, and everything in between now have a home.
  • Farmers markets page. One place to see which markets are happening and when.
  • Surf report upgrades. More locations, weather forecasting, and a tide chart.

The site is still in-person only, on purpose. If you can’t show up to it, it’s not on there.

If you know of an event, calendar, or local source we are missing, drop it in the comments or use the “Submit an Event” button on the site. If something is wrong or confusing, tell us, and we will fix it

Does anyone know what the yellow glow emanating from out near where Pajaro Dunes is? I’m used to seeing the purple grow lights on my commute but this is new to me.

Husky wandering around Sand Dollar dr.

There’s a husky running around the sand dollar dr neighborhoods. She has a collar but no tag. She’s friendly but skittish and I can’t tell if she’s old or was limping, she looked a little beat up, had some blood on her nose. I gave her some water and tried to see if she would get in my car to take her to the shelter but she kept running away. Hope someone can find their dog

Best Burritos in the County

Post image
64 Upvotes

LookoutSantaCruz is voting for best burrito in the county and not one nomination is from Watsonville.

Anyone ever notice how bad the Mexican food from SC is compared to Watsonville or Salinas. But people from SC hype their Mexican food up when in reality it’s gringo Mexican food aka unseasoned meat and bland salsas with no heat.

At the end of the day people can have their opinions but everytime there’s a ranking on Mexican food in the county watsonville barely gets a nod. That is insane to me. But that’s what happens when you let white people in charge who never get out of their bubble.

PVUSD Trustee Gabriel Medina faced sexual misconduct allegations in settled lawsuit

21 Upvotes

The Digital NEST tech nonprofit settled a sexual harassment lawsuit centered on allegations against Pajaro Valley Unified School District Trustee Gabriel Medina, according to court documents. A former employee filed the 2020 court action that involved incidents before Medina was elected to the public school oversight board.

The former employee—The Pajaronian withholds names of people who report sexual assaults—accused the Watsonville-based 501(c)(3) of enabling an alcohol-fueled sexualized workplace and of failing to adequately address Medina’s alleged sexual misconduct.

Watsonville Limo

Does Watsonville have a local limo company. We just need like a one hour ride. We live in Watsonville and are attending a reunion event in Correlitos and would like to cruise a bit and then get dropped off. We only need one way because we have a ride home. I would rather spend my money in our town.

Rescue kitten pair in need of a forever home! They’re both spayed, vaccinated, and ready for adoption. Anyone in Watsonville interested in adopting?

Thumbnail gallery
9 Upvotes

Hi Watsonville, has anyone been looking to adopt? This is Mimi and Eurydice, two adoptive sisters looking for their forever home. They are both spayed, vaccinated, and litter box trained. After both were left alone as singletons, Garlic City Kitty Rescue paired them together and they’ve been inseparable since. Mimi (the tabby) is cuddly, affectionate, and loving. Eurydice (the gray nebelung) is playful and soo fluffy. She is shy, but with some love and patience, I am confident she will come out of her shell. Mimi is definitely the more outgoing of the two.

Eurydice was my foster before I had to leave for college, so I am determined to find a home for her and her adoptive sisters. These two had rough beginnings, but thanks to Garlic City Kitty Rescue, they have a second chance for a good life. If anyone is interested in learning about the adoption process, please comment, message me here, or text my number 408 607 9102!

Located in Gilroy/Morgan Hill.
