FAQ: Publications
I haven’t been receiving copies of The Pilot Log. Who should I contact at Pilot Headquarters?
Contact Debbie Brown at (478) 477-1208 ext. 306 or e-mail: debbie@pilothq.org to find out if your address is correct in the membership database.
Let her know which issues you did not receive, and we will be happy to send you the last issue or two you missed (as availability permits), and we’ll make every effort to ensure that you receive all future publications.
When can I expect to receive my copy of The Pilot Log?
The Pilot Log is published four times a year on a quarterly schedule. It is mailed to members in Spring, Summer and Fall. The Winter edition of The Pilot Log is published exclusively online.
Our club would like to submit an article about a service project to The Pilot Log. To whom should we send our information, and is there a specified format?
Send news to:
Alison Coons
Editor, The Pilot Log
102 Preston Court
Macon, Georgia 31210-5768
Fax (478)477-6978
Phone (478)477-1208, ext. 304

Our club sent a photo that was published in The Pilot Log. Can we get our photo back?
As a general rule, photos are not returned to clubs because of the abundance of material sent to The Pilot Log each month. If your club must have the photo for a scrapbook or exhibit, please send a duplicate for publication in The Log.
If you sent an original photo and must have it returned, send a stamped, self-addressed envelope to
The Pilot Log
102 Preston Court
Macon, Georgia 31210-5768.
Be sure to include a description of the photo and indicate in which issue of The Pilot Log it was published. We will do our best to locate it and return it to you, but please keep in mind that it won’t always be possible to return any particular photo. Again, we urge you to send a duplicate, never the only original print.
Our club is celebrating an anniversary next month. Is this something something that can be published in The Pilot Log?
The policy states that “Due to space limitations, news and photos of activities common to all Pilot Clubs, such as installations, Founder’s Day activities, district fall councils, regional workshops, and district conventions will not be published.”
However, if your club celebrates its anniversary in conjunction with an awards luncheon, service project, or other special event, it will be considered for publication. Five year anniversaries are recognized in the Summer Log.
How do you select projects for publication in The Pilot Log?
We are always looking for news of uniquely successful projects (service or fundraising) that further the Pilot mission, and creative ideas that other clubs can use. We appreciate your digital photos too, 300 dpi at least, please.
The best way to get your club’s projects in The Pilot Log is to send in your news items. We try to feature different clubs in each issue to give equal billing to all clubs submitting articles. We publish as many as we can in each issue, and we often keep the ones that don’t get in for the next issue (that’s why it may take up to six months for an item to appear).
If your club has a success story to share, you can send it directly to
The Pilot Log
102 Preston Court
Macon, Georgia 31210-5768
Phone (478) 477-1208, ext. 304
Fax (478) 477-6978
