Kentucky-Ohio-West Virginia District of Pilot International

Prepared by:  Rea Huff, Governor

KY-OH-WV District of Pilot International

VISION STATEMENT:

My vision for our Clubs, District and Pilot International is to increase the visibility of Pilot.  Display your banners as you go out into the community and wear your Pilot Pins and shirts to show who we are.  We need everyone to know what Pilot stands for and the many services provided.  We will continue our Garden Flags and www.pilotkow.org web site.

My vision is to strengthen Pilot through increased membership in our local clubs and increase attendance at District and International Conventions.  We need to see new members added to bring fresh ideas.  We also need to focus on retention of our present membership.
