Student of the Month

During the school year, each month (September-May), the Pilot Club of Quitman honors a "student of the month" from Quitman High School.  The student selected each month is invited to the monthly meeting, where the students share information about themselves, and are presented with a gift on behalf of the Pilot Club of Quitman.

Mountain High Camp

Mountain High is a unique summer camp for young adults with Brain injuries.  Sponsored by Faith Mountain Fellowship Church, Red River, New Mexico, and Baylor Institute for Rehabilitation in Dallas, Texas.  Coordinated with love by Mike and Charlotte Wilson of Winnsboro, Texas and Julie and Ben Fallin of Red River.  Each camp begins the 3rd Sunday of August for 5 days. 1998 was the fifth year for this camp to operate.  Each year, the Pilot Club of Quitman sponsors one camper who would otherwise be unable to attend.

Higher Ground Camp Retreat

Higher Ground Camp is a retreat near Brenham, Texas.  This is a weekend encampment for persons with brain injury.  At this camp about 30 brain injured campers along with volunteers from different areas (Pilot included) come for entertainment and dancing.  The camp is held in October or November.  The Pilot Club of Quitman will sponsor two campers this year.  We are planning to have some of the Pilots from Quitman attend as volunteers.
