Hope everyone is well!
I know it has been a rough time over here the last couple weeks, and I hope everyone is doing alright and recovering as best they can! Just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing. If you have been affected by the fires let me know and I can provide a list of a variety or resources ranging from clothing, food and water, and even temporary shelter/storage! If you also have resources feel free to drop them below and please let me know if there is anything I, or the community, can do to help! We're all in this together!Cincinnati PUG Community; We Need Your Help!
"In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity". These are the words of Sun Tzu who famously wrote The Art of War. While customers, partners, and Puritans all get acquainted to the rebrand from Pure Storage, to EverPure; it also provides us the opportunity to create a unique identity for our PUG chapter. And this is where we need your help. We know our community is filled with creative minds. And Cincinnati has many unique identities, from our beautiful skyline (and chili), to our sports teams (Reds, Bengals, FCC, Cyclones, UC, X), to our landmarks (Roebling Bridge, the Museum Center and Zoo, Fountain Square). This is your chance to help us create our own PUG identity. Get your creative juices flowing and visit the below link for additional details and how YOU can help us create the Cincinnati PUG logo.

Let's get the elephant in the room cleared up first. PUGS are staying PUGS. Now with that out of the way, let's move onto what this post really is for. With the rebrand to Everpure, we have the opportunity to create distinct visual identities for PUG chapters. To ensure this is a truly community-driven process, we are requesting community members (YOU & your peers) create a mood board for your chapter. So....lay it on us. Your funniest, snarkiest, most professional, most IT-Related ideas for what our new spiffy PUG logo should be. I'm told that it will become a "mood board." I'm not sure what that means and I generally would think it a dangerous thing to publicly display the mood of a bunch of IT folks. But the designers have asked, so in the words of the Special Man, "Let 'em have it." -t Don't know the Special Man? You're missing out: https://youtu.be/XI7jC57GuZM?si=_bkicOxNGFdipf4zEverPUG?
