Trying to add static block to customer logout page, block is displaying twice

Question

How do I add a static CMS block to the customer logout page? I have it somewhat working, but the content of my CMS block shows twice:

1. I setup a CMS block called logout_message with a bit of html in there.

2. Added this to my local.xml

   <label>Customer Account Logout Success</label>
   
   <remove name="right"/>
   
   <remove name="left"/>
   
   <reference name="root">
   
       <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/1column.phtml</template></action>
   
   </reference>
   
   <reference name="content">
   
       <block type="core/template" name="customer_logout" template="customer/logout.phtml">
   
           <block type="cms/block" name="logout_message" as="logout_message">
   
               <action method="setBlockId"><block_id>logout_message</block_id></action>
   
           </block>
   
       </block>
   
   </reference>
   

3. created my template/customer/logout.phtml:

   <div class="small-16 columns panel-fill ">
   
      <?php echo $this->getChildHtml('logout_message') ?>
   
   </div>
   

As I said the content of the static block shows twice - why? Small update - it actually outputs the content of the entire logout.phtml file, not just the CMS block.

You're basically re-inserting a customer_logout block in the content of the page.

Instead, it should be:

<reference name="customer_logout">        
    <block type="cms/block" name="logout_message" as="logout_message">
        <action method="setBlockId"><block_id>logout_message</block_id></action>
    </block>
</reference>
