We&#8217;re glad you asked!<\/p>\n<p>The Odyssey Adventure Club, having been around for three\u00a0seasons, confused many fans and left a disconnect between the\u00a0<em>Adventures in Odyssey<\/em> brand and the club. What exactly was the Odyssey Adventure Club? As it seemed, the Odyssey Adventure Club could be taken (at first glance) as a separate entity from AIO. As\u00a0<em>Adventures in Odyssey<\/em> has been around for nearly 30 years, the name and logo of the brand alone have a huge impact. By changing the name of the club to\u00a0<em>Adventures in Odyssey Club<\/em>, the Odyssey team has opened up the door\u00a0for better brand recognition. Brand recognition is\u00a0the\u00a0extent to which a consumer can correctly identify a particular product or service just by viewing the product or service&#8217;s logo, tag line, packaging or advertising campaign.\u00a0Those who see the\u00a0<em>Adventures in Odyssey<\/em> logo branded with the club&#8217;s name are less likely to be confused in the days ahead.<\/p>\n<p>So how does this affect OAC members (now AIOC)? Not very much. You&#8217;ll begin seeing the new\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.odysseyscoop.com\/features\/oac\">Adventures in Odyssey Club<\/a>\u00a0logo on the club site, to marketing for the show. In summary, you can expect parents who see the name\u00a0<em>Adventures in Odyssey<\/em> to be more likely to join the club for their families, which is what we as fans ultimately want. More members of the club means more funding for future\u00a0<em>Adventures in Odyssey<\/em> episodes, books, and more. The club&#8217;s purpose will remain the same and the same great content will be available moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, if you haven&#8217;t joined the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.odysseyscoop.com\/features\/oac\">Adventures in Odyssey Club<\/a>, it&#8217;s a great resource for families to access the entire series, plus exclusive episodes.
