I think you may be missing a zero off the estimated cost of this exercise, Fysherman. Conservatively I would reckon it is north of a million.

Could be CY. I kept costs down to a minimum as I had shareholders to answer to. The Caravan club has "members" so who knows?

Looking forward to seeing the Accounts although I bet it will be impossible to tell.

With over 200 sites, £1m would be less than £5k per site - to cover new signage throughout the site, toilet areas, office, information room etc, new uniforms for all staff, new stationary.......then there is all the HO costs.

I suppose that. at least with an AS they avoid all those costs......because they aren't CC / C&MHC sites......

Just noticed......apparently all the CL signage is to be changed too.......including the Club sending out postage-paid envelopes to the CL's for the return of the old sign.......you just could not make this up!

The cost could be even more if the uproar over the new logo forces the club to give it up!

Its probably because they know that most cls would keep the well known signs to advertise them selves otherwise

Agreed.

Any news on when we're losing these JK?  Some of us didn't believe the post truths put out by HQ last year

You do not really think the club head Honchos would let that sort of information be given to people who work on the front  line do yousurprised
