Is the club going to pay for new flags and equipment used to run caravan club rallies meetings etc ?

    The flags come from the Club anyway, not sure what other 'equipment' you have in mind, centres are allowed to use the club logo (as long as they don't abuse the privilege) anyway, but changing the logo shouldn't actually cost the centres much (if anything) at all.

    Really?

    As far as I know the club supplied one flag to our centre.  We have at least 5 rally kits  iirc they wanted an extra £160 per flag.

    The registered name is still Caravan Club and as that probably appears on the exemption certificate then it should not be changed on the pennants.

    There will have to be a lot of new badges for those in office though.

    It would be good if they updated the flag/flagpole to be lightweight and modern if they are trying to change their image.

    Similar to the Blade Flag

    I doubt that this was even considered at HQ prior to the re-branding launch.  Certainly no one was given advance notice of the change to my knowledge.

    I have a Past Centre Chairman's window plaque and a personal name plaque purchased myself.  Both these contain the red pennant logo and I will continue to use these.  However, Centres purchase items like this in quantity to get a better individual item price and I'm sure that many Centres hold stocks of these for future use so unless a lot of expense is incurred, the old logo is likely to live on.

    We purchased 6 new light weight flags last year on flexible carbon fibre poles at a cost of £1,200.  Can't see the CAMC replacing them or any need to actually.  We had both the CC logo and our Centre logo on them where in the past we had 2 flags.
