THE DIGEST

HOMESTEAD DEADLINE IS TODAY!! 🏡

HEY, NEW HOME OWNERS! March 3rd, today, is ESCAMBIA COUNTY’s last day to file for Homestead Exemption 2025. The homestead exemption will remain in place as long as it meets the homestead requirements, so no need to re-file each year. If you miss filing by the 1st, the option to homestead will open again next year.

PENSACOLA LIFEGUARDS 🛟

March kicks off the start of lifeguards on the beach 2025. The Pensacola Beach Lifeguards are ocean rescue lifeguards working under Escambia County Public Safety. From the 1st - 8th the lifeguards will be at Casino Beach from 9-5pm. On the 9th the hours shift to 10-6pm and eight more towers will be added. An added beach safety for 2025 includes the dangers of Hole Digging. Check out PENSACOLA BEACH LAWS to learn more.
