Macon, Georgia – On Friday, August 23, 2019, Pilot International Headquarters staff and the Executive Committee participated in a service project sorting and boxing books donated at Pilot International’s recent convention in Chicago. The books were given to Book ‘Em, a Macon/Bibb County based non-profit that provides at-risk children of all ages with new and gently used books.

The books are distributed by the Macon-Bibb Sheriff’s Office at school-wide book giveaways in an effort to prevent summer learning loss, also known as “Summer Slide,” during The Sheriff’s Office’s summer CHAMPS camps; during various community events, many held at our local recreation centers; at back-to-school kick-off events; and by patrol officers who keep books in their cars to give to children they encounter through their patrol duties.

Why is this so important?

The literacy rate really determines the success or failure of a community, as demonstrated by the fact that many municipalities use the reading achievement test scores of 3rd graders in their schools to project the number of jail cells needed in 20 years. Additionally, the Macon-Bibb Sheriff’s Office hope is that this gift of books will help the children of Macon-Bibb see law-enforcement officers as friends and allies whom they can trust.

About Pilot International

Pilot International is a community-based volunteer service organization founded in 1921 in Macon, Georgia, on the principles of “Friendship and Service.” The name “Pilot” was inspired by the mighty riverboat pilots of that day who represented leadership and guidance. Pilots “Do More. Care More. Be More.” by providing financial and hands-on community service, focusing on brain safety and health and supporting those who care for others.
The organization also provides service opportunities for youth in Anchor clubs, and young adults in Compass clubs. With almost 14,000 members, Pilot, Compass, and Anchor Clubs are located throughout the United States, the Bahamas, Japan, and South Africa.

Pilot International remains headquartered in Macon, where the staff serves its international constituency. Contact your local Pilot Club(s) or visit our website at https://pilotinternational.org to find out more about our friendship and service opportunities.

An Historic Event: New Compass Club chartered

January 8, 2019 By Claire Wells

Club Name: The Compass Club of Covington County
District: Alabama

Sponsored by the Pilot Club of Andalusia

The Pilot Club of Andalusia this week chartered the first Compass Club since the club for younger men and women was reestablished.

Pilot International Secretary Collett Cross said that the moment marked a historical event.

“This is a historic event for Pilot International,” Cross said. “I hope this group leads the charge for leadership and growth from the college and young professional demographic.”

Cross said that there was a time when Compass was established and had members.

“In the 1990s, Compass started to phase out,” Cross said. “With the establishment of Anchor Club, financial problems and lack of growth, it completely phased out.”

Lisa Patterson , director of the executive committee of Pilot International, said that each chartering member will occupy a place in history.

“No other member will ever be known as the ‘chartering members’ of the first Compass Club chartered following the re-establishment of Compass,” Patterson said. “And we will be here to help and guide the new members.”

The Compass Club is only for ages 18 to 26.

Christopher Smith, Charter Club Member

For the club to be chartered there needed to be five members.  They include Katrine Christensen, Elisabeth Christensen, Kami Price, Heidi Cross and Taylor Smith.  Christopher Smith, a reporter covering new releases, recently joined increasing the club membership to six.

The Compass Club of Covington County is required to have six meetings per year and meetings may be held electronically, giving young adults from Covington County attending college in other locations or states the opportunity to be a member.
