OUR STORY

The Sunshine Pilot Club of Nassau (SPC) was chartered on 14th June 2009.The SPC was formed as a result of two existing clubs in the Bahamas District combining their efforts. The Downtown Pilot Club and the Luncheon Pilot Club felt a need to join in order to build strength and create partnerships which would allow the new club to better serve the community. In the presence of the Pilot International President Deborah Archer, a member of the Pilot Club of Lucaya, the SPC was chartered with 34 members. The vision of the SPC is for continued strength and renewed commitment with a spirit of friendship and service.The club on May 2019 celebrated 10 years of friendship and service with a Past Presidents Dinner.The Sunshine Pilot club is made up of professional business women from all parts of the community.  Ranging from working fulltime to retired persons of diverse fields such as education, banking, religion and social work.The club meets monthly and after conducting the business meeting involving club affairs, dinner and the program part of the meeting takes place.  Program meetings have ranged from speakers on topics of brain-related disorders, motivational speakers and on maintaining good health.  When the club goes out to provide service to the community we assist the elderly, teenagers at risk and educate primary school students on brain safety.  We also assist local charities such as the Red Cross and Salvation Army in their fundraising activities.The many clubs of the Bahamas District include two clubs on New Providence, two on Grand Bahama and one on Abaco who meet annually in a District Convention.  Internationally we travel to a city in the US or Canada to meet other Pilot club members from the US, Japan and South Africa.Joined in friendship and service we can do more to assist our local communities and meet some great people.A candidate who has been proposed for membership must attend at least two (2) business meetings with the President’s permission prior to the Club determining whether she/he may be invited into membership.
