After nearly three decades with Brownsville-Haywood County Parks and Recreation, Pete Padilla is beginning a new chapter in retirement.

Longevity in public service is a noteworthy accomplishment, and we recognize Pete for his many years of commitment to our department and the community we serve. Throughout his career, he witnessed numerous changes, growth, and developments within our organization and played a role in helping us fulfill our mission.

We thank Pete for his years of service and wish him all the best as he enjoys retirement, new opportunities, and time with family and friends.

Congratulations, Pete, on reaching this significant milestone. We wish you happiness, health, and success in the years ahead.
