The same Club, just better...

Hi JVB,

The change in name and logo were based on your feedback and in consultation with your representatives on the Committee. Together, we’re embarking on a journey of investment in the future of our Club.

Ok guys, I have read and posted enough responses to clearly see that my fellow members are in the main extremely unhappy with this sorry mess, despite what the head is the sand responses are from club officials

The point is what can we do about it. Some posts mention organisations who have had to reverse actions implemented by their management after feedback from their members

Here are some ideas, any additions welcomed

1 Form a petition against changes. How to we do this?

2 Vote out all committee at next AGM - too far away and we may end up voting out people who were not necessarily fully committed to name and logo change. Continuity of other projects may suffer

3 Demand a retrospective vote amongst members on this major constitutional change

4 Request an extraordinary AGM to be held, with sole motion to reverse decision to change club name/logo. I for one would certainly attend

Please feel free to propose any other ideas

The simple logo's carry a lot of weight in the world of marketing and advertising.  You only have to look at the power of the McDonalds and Apple logos.

Rebranding isn't a bad thing and lets face it, this campaign had got everyone talking, even bickering.  Which makes me chuckle.  

Yes there will be some re-branding costs, but I'm sure that this will have been carefully considered.

We have been both caravan members and now more recently motorhome members.  The club is still heavy weighed towards caravan owners.  Motorhomes don't have the option to use multiple waste or even fresh water points thorough ought most sites, but we still like the club.  We hardly ever use the toilet facilities and so try to use more CL's these days.

Anyway nice to recognise both Caravan & Motorhomes equally.

Happy holidays.
