• Football Game Preview: Palmer Trinity Falcons vs. Pahokee Blue Devils + Official Tickets (maxpreps.com) — Pahokee hosts Palmer Trinity at 6:30 p.m. Friday, coming off a 34-22 win over Melbourne Central Catholic.

• Less taxes, more taxes: Palm Beach County voters say ‘yes' to all (stetnews.org) — Pahokee faces a shrinking property-tax base after Florida voters approved Amendment 3: more than 90% of its homesteaded properties are valued at $250,000 or less, the exemption planned for year two. The measure threatens local-government revenue, though implementation rules remain pending and a potential legal challenge could affect whether it takes effect.
