PINELLAS COUNTY - The Pinellas County Sheriff`s Office will host a Discovery Day program for children residing in Pinellas County on Saturday, March 2, 2024.

The program will allow Pinellas County children to take a hands-on, behind-the-scenes look at the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office. Participants will receive a welcome from Sheriff Bob Gualtieri before experiencing four education stations. These stations will include PCSO vehicle displays, a modified version of the Physical Abilities Test (P.A.T.) course, a hands-on forensic science experience, and the opportunity to test their skills on the Targeted Response Against Distracted Driving (T.R.A.D.D.) course.

Children must be between ages 8 and 13 and reside in Pinellas County. A parent or guardian is required to attend with the child for the duration of the program. The program will be held from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Sheriff’s Administration Building located at 10750 Ulmerton Road in Largo.

To attend the event, participants must be pre-registered. We are currently accepting registration for our next Discovery Day, which will be held on November 2, 2024.
