New rebrand, what new rebrand

Been away for a long weekend in the van on a CL.

We passed 2 club sites and 2 other cl's on the way to our destination, none of which were showing any form of the new signage.

Rebranding's going well then wink

When I visit club sites or attend rallies including the national, I have been looking around for the new club stickers which we all received, and can find very few attached to vehicles and vans, this appears to have been a very costly exercise as part of the dreadful rebrand exercise, money that could have been much more wisely spent for the benefit of members ( sorry I mean clients/customers) as the club no longer resembles a club as I know, more of a business now.

 Couldn't agree more with GarryP. I too joined a CLUB 40 odd years ago. Not a company!

I quite agree, Husky. Things change and it's time to move on. After all, neither a sign nor a name change alter the ability to use sites and that's the reason most of us are members. Club/business, what does it matter?cool

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet

A chrysanthemum by any other name would be easier to pronounce

Don't know what all the fuss is about.Im sure in a couple of years the old signage will be long forgotten and the new signage will have taken its place.Just enjoy what the Club has to offer and enjoy👍At the end of the day it's still the same club and the same members.

Very true, but no member has any benefit from this, but we would have, had the money, which I imagine was quite considerable, been spent on updating the shabby facilities on some sites.

We have chosen to use quite a few comercial sites this year that offer much improved and modern facilities. The sites used have also been of comparable prices as club sites in the region without the need for a membership fee and also offer pretty good discounts in some cases.

That may be true ,but we have just had our depot re-painted and re-signed in an effort to move it forward and i assume that was the aim of the club and i for one think they have done a pretty good job of it .at the end of the day if members werent moaning about the re-branding they would be moaning about something else,its all part and parcel of club lifesmile

Some folk just don't like change. The older they get the harder they fight against progress & renewal. I'd go as far as to say they'd be happy in a time warpfrown

I open this thread just for a laugh, I mean I know CMC members like to whine but is it not time to move on? Why is the new logo such a problem, am I the only caravanner who finds no problem whatsoever spotting them? Might it be a case of some not wanting to see them rather than not actually seeing them I wonder?!

have to agree with you. When any other leisure  company changes its colours and/or brand people just carry on using it, not  with the club though.
