FOR THE LEDGER The Luncheon Pilot Club of Enterprise recently celebrated its 47th birthday. This club was organized on Feb.16, 1976, by the nighttime Pilot Club of Enterprise and was chartered on April 11, 1976, at a banquet held at Enterprise State Junior College, now Enterprise State Community College, with 40 charter members.
Nearly one-half century later, this community service organization continues to serve the city of Enterprise and the Coffee County area. The name “Pilot” was inspired by the mighty river boat pilots who represented leadership and guidance. The Pilot motto is “true course ever,” the Pilot Club principles are friendship and service; the Pilot colors are green for life and gold for sincerity of purpose; and the Pilot emblem is a riverboat’s pilot wheel with eight spokes.
