PUB Crawl for July 30, 2018

A quick stretch of back-to-back NPSP Days in Portland and San Francisco flew by last week, propelled by some of the best doughnuts the Pacific Northwest had to offer (that's Blue Star, for you non-locals). We've now officially turned the corner into the third year for these two cities, and it's exciting to see these unconferences evolve as the community changes shape.

Talking of change, a ton of it is about to happen this week in Denver, with the Salesforce.org open source community sprints. While our NPSP Days are focused more on knowledge sharing and training, these sprints are an opportunity for the community to develop the resources and code needed to support organizations around the world using HEDA and the NPSP.

While I'm way out here in Washington DC, I tip my captain's hat to the fine folks rallying together in Denver. May the open source spirit carry you across the sprinting finish line!

PUB Crawl for July 23, 2018

It's wheels up time again. As we move deeper into summer, the NPSP Day tour picks up steam after a few weeks of down time. I touched down in Oregon this morning to get ready for a first stop at NPSP Day Portland tomorrow, and then right down the coast to NPSP Day San Francisco on Wednesday.

Flying over Oregon

From Blue Star doughnuts, to the land of burritos, we'll find some good time to fit in non-profit Salesforce knowledge sharing. Somehow.

For those of you who won't be able to join us on this west coast swing, here's the latest from the virtual Salesforce community!

PUB Crawl for July 16, 2018

Ah yes, it's the All-Star break for American baseball. Nothing better than desperately trying to turn off all the 24-hour cable television news channels to see folks try to clobber a baseball in today's homerun derby.

Just another summer day in America

I mean, I didn't get a chance to hang out in the crazy humidity today in DC to watch it, but from what I hear, people who attended generally felt pretty good about the world. Just the special sight of the American pastime.

For those of you who could use a good drink (of knowledge) today, grab a stool here at the PUB Crawl. This round's on me. And the next. And...you get the picture.

PUB Crawl for May 7, 2018

I have journeyed to Seattle for another NPSP Day. I’m looking forward to seeing who shows up to share their knowledge. The best part of NPSP Days is the ease of the event. I mean, the community members are the ones driving the event. It’s their ideas, thoughts, and fun facts that make NPSP Days so entertaining. It also doesn’t help that I am able to eat a burrito or eight. After NPSP Day Seattle, I’ll be divulging in Shakshouka in Tel Aviv for the next NPSP Day. We’re making history by heading to the Middle East. Let’s just say, I can’t complain about my job. While I gear up for this week’s NPSP Day, you all should get ready for this week’s PUB Crawl. Tons of amazing content has just entered your inbox. Find a quiet place to perch your feet and enjoy this week’s PUB Crawl.
