Retiree Pen Connection Newsletter

The Pen Retiree Connection, keeping Pinellas County retirees plugged in

Welcome to our monthly newsletter for Pinellas County retirees! The Retiree Pen Connection combines some employee-related articles from the Pen plus retiree-focused articles which were previously distributed in the quarterly Retiree Connection.

You have access to all of the Pen articles except employee-focused information such as employee surveys and classes. Enjoy all of your favorites including milestones, department news, Pen Extra personal news (such as obituaries and births), spotlights, consumer tips, and REPCO meeting announcements.
