With that in mind, we will host our first-ever obstacle course run in the woods surrounding the Land O’ Lakes Detention Center. The event will be a fundraiser for Pasco Sheriff’s Charities. The Great Escape, which will take place Saturday, December 6, is a timed 5K run and will feature numerous obstacles to challenge your endurance. Runners will be pre-assigned a race start time. Check-in begins on the day of the event at 7:00am, with the first race starting at 8:00am. Participants will receive a T-shirt and a medal for participating. Fastest runners in their age category will also receive medals. Additionally, runners will have their photo taken at the end of the race. Many of these obstacles will involve water and mud, so be prepared to get very dirty! The obstacles planned for the course include: • Monkey bars • Arctic plunge • Mud crawl • Cargo net climb • Great Wall of Pasco • Balance beam • Smoke house • Mud slide • Rope climb & swing Timing chips will be available to those who wish for their run to be timed. All teams must consist of five members, but you can run as an individual if you choose. The obstacle run fee for an individual escapee is $50 ($75 after Nov. 29) and the fee for a five-person team is $225 ($300 after Nov. 29). You must be at least 18 years of age to participate in the race. To register and review the course, please visit our Pasco Sheriff’s Charities website at PascoSheriffCharities.com.

Superintendent of Schools: Kurt Browning Take A Moment To Inspire Our Students by Kurt S. Browning, Superintendent of Pasco County Public Schools During the week of November 17, the Great American Teach-In will be coming to each of our Pasco County schools. The TeachIn is a part of the District School Board of Pasco County’s annual American Education Week celebration. This event is a great opportunity to interact with our students, share information about your organization, and communicate to our future leaders what you have experienced throughout your career. Your story could inspire them to pursue a similar career field or pathway. Our students need positive role models who take a moment to describe the opportunities available and provide advice on how to Page 6 • Chamber News successfully navigate obstacles. It truly means the world to them. If you would like to participate, you do not need to register as a volunteer. Simply contact the school you would like to visit by November 3. Opportunities are available from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day during American Education Week. When you arrive at your local school, please check in at the office to pick up your nametag. Staff will be available to help accompany you to your classroom. Our students and I look forward to hearing from you. Pasco County Clerk & Comptroller’s Office Reminder!! FALL BACK… Turn your clocks back 1 hour on November 2, 2014 Brian E. Corley by Paula S. O’Neil, Ph.D. Pasco County Clerk & Comptroller Supervisor of Elections Pasco County 800-851-8754 Electronic Filing Update On September 21, 2014, the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal (ePortal) expanded services to a range of users and agencies. The new upgrade allows court reporters, mediators, process servers, law enforcement, state agencies, mental health professionals, and similar entities to file court documents through the portal. Access to the ePortal has many benefits for law enforcement and other parties, including eService, a process by which all parties in a court case are electronically served pleadings via email, eliminating the time and materials necessary for paper service. Electronic filing of court documents, eFiling: • Provides users the ability to submit court documents electronically 24/7. • Enables electronic service of documents to parties in a case. • Facilitates case updates through the “My Filings” section of the ePortal account. The Pasco County Clerk & Comptroller’s Office has been accepting electronically filed documents through the ePortal since April 2013. Additional information including excellent instructional video and training manual on eFiling are linked on the Clerk & Comptroller’s website under the Courts tab. Visit www.pascoclerk. com.
