TGI Flashback Friday! Today we're honoring the man in black, country music star Johnny Cash! 😎

Johnny and June Carter-Cash inherited the Carter family home on the Cotee River, which is where they went to get away from the demanding music industry. In 1980, Johnny played a tribute concert at Gulf High to raise money for the New Port Richey Police Department pension fund! Could you imagine seeing Johnny Cash live in concert for only $15?? 😲

Great to know! this with your friends!

Pasco County Parks, Recreation, and Natural Resources (PRNR) is hosting a modified 2020 Summer Day Camp program due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Online registration begins Saturday, May 30, 2020, at 10:00 a.m. (You must register for all six weeks to participate.) Summer Day Camp plans are contingent upon entering Phase II of Governor DeSantis’ plan to reopen Florida, and wellness indicators while camp is in session.

WHAT: Pasco Parks Summer Day Camp 2020
WHEN: Monday – Friday; June 15 through July 24, 2020; 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.* (no camp July 3, 2020).
WHO: Limited to Pasco County residents ages 7 through 11
HOW: Register online, space is limited: bit.ly/PascoCreateAccount

Expect to see these best practices to protect our campers and team members:
• Children’s temperature taken daily before being accepted into camp
• No field trips, to ensure a controlled environment throughout the day
• Sign in/check out at your vehicle
• Reduced camper-to-staff ratios/group intermingling to promote social distancing
• Increased sanitizing of facilities and equipment
• Staff will be required to wear face coverings

For seamless enrollment, be sure to create or update your online account ahead of registration by visiting: bit.ly/PascoCreateAccount.

For more information, including a list of locations, camp capacities and costs, please visit bit.ly/PascoSummerCamp or call (813) 929-1229.

*Please note camp is subject to cancellation based on renewed restrictions from the state or in the event of a positive COVID-19 test within the camp. Refunds will be available for any PRNR-initiated cancellations. The six-week registration requirement prioritizes families with the greatest need for
summer childcare and reduces potential exposure to respiratory illness.

What an amazing accomplishment by the staff and students of Pasco County Schools! 👏👏👏

"[Pasco County School District] is the College Board Advanced Placement District of the Year among systems of 50,000 or more students, the second Florida district in a decade to receive the honor.

“This is a big deal,” Pasco superintendent Kurt Browning said."

The recognition is based on improvement in student participation and performance, especially among underrepresented groups.
