Crystal Clear: Show us Your Selfie! (Fall-o-ween Edition)

It's that time of year - we are celebrating all things FALL in Community!


Get ready to show off your Fall-o-ween profile pics and earn beaucoup Community points and a chance to win a Pumpkin Spice whatever on us!


Details inside... It's that time of year!


I walked into our local At Home over the weekend and noticed this:

That's right. CHRISTMAS has arrived in stores. A-L-R-E-A-D-Y.


I don't know about you, but I'm not ready to give up on Fall just yet. It's not even Halloween! 


This month, we are focusing on profile pictures in Community. Why have one? Well, it's great to put a face to a name! The Blackbaud Community is a peer to peer Community. We built it for our members to network and learn from each other, so having a picture is a great way to show off your personality.


In true Community style, we are kicking off our Fall-o-ween profile picture extravaganza.


If you change your profile pic to something fall, Halloween costumes, fur babies dressed up, sipping a PSL, knitting a scarf, sitting in front of a cozy fire, raking leaves, or whatever is traditional this time of year where you live, we will award you 500 points!


I'll also pick 5 people at random to send a gift card to.. pumpkin spice (or whatever you enjoy!) on us! 


While you are at it, you can check out this discussion in Just for Fun about how Halloween looks a little different this year. There are some creative suggestions - add yours!


I love this time of year and look forward to seeing everyone's Fall-o-ween pics. Let us know in the comments below that you've updated your pic and if you'd like to tell us the story behind it, please do.


Here are Ray, Elizabeth, and I last year in the office as the Area 51 Raiders. <3

  • Updated to a picture of my coworkers and myself dressed as Care Bears last year! I was Funshine bear, of course.
  • Sunshine Watson‍ Funshine Bear!!! *laughs forever*
  • We decided to get a Fall Tree to last through Thanksgiving.  Updated my profile pic to show it off!
  • Updated my pic to one of my favorite Halloweens & costumes ever- me and my friend Karen as Spy vs. Spy. We won the contest we entered. :) I took a paper tower roll and painted it red, added string so it looked like a large stick of dynomite. Her mask made it hard to see, so I got to goof off and act like I was putting the explosives in her pocket. I messed with the judges, too. That's one reason we won.

    My idea for Halloween is treat it parade style. Adults willing to give candy in their 'hood drive around and toss the candy to the kiddos who are safely in their own yards. 
  • Cynthia Cavazos‍ I have a Halloween tree! 
  • Updated to a backyard selfie.  We have gorgeous fall colors in Michigan!
  • My son turned 21 at the beginning of October, and he wanted to celebrate with an early costume party! Our family dressed as characters from Alice in Wonderland. My profile is me as the Red Queen, my son Jackson as the Mad Hatter and my husband Gregg as the Rabbit. Our whole family got really got into it and we had a great time, socially-distanced of course. And no one lost their heads. lol
  • I updated my profile picture from a family trip to the pumpkin patch, one of my favorite fall traditions.
  • changed profile to my Hazel -- she fits the Halloweenie theme. :-)

     
  • Before our wedding, my husband and I dressed as a bride and groom for Halloween.  At 6’1” ft tall, we wrapped him in lacy curtains from Goodwill.  We had so much fun that we used this as the photo in our actual wedding programs!
  • Our Upper school students get a kick out of staff in costume on Halloween!
  • I updated my picture to show off my Versiti Wisconsin "Starve a Vampire - Donate Blood" t-shirt. It is fun to wear this time of year to promote the importance of donating blood.
  • So Fun! Halloween is my favourite! 
  • Done ( might upload a better one later lol ) 
  • Updated profile pic to Jack the Pumkpin Kehn! (my carved pumpkin ;) )
  • Our church is so beautiful with the fall colors! Had to use that for my profile pic!
  • I just changed my picture to a lovely sign I saw in the pumpkin patch! It suits me well ;)

    Changed to my Halloween photo from last year!
  • Updated from last year, my team dressed up as Winnie the Pooh and the Hundred Acre Woods. I am Eyore.
  • Fun! I love Halloween. I updated my pic to one of my daughter and I as Ariel and Ursula. We have been dressing up weekly, Disneybound-style during quarantine to have something fun to look forward to and plan for each week. :)
  • Updated my profile with a picture of Trunk or Treat trunk last year. Monsters Inc!

    Crystal Bruce and Cynthia Cavazos‍ I have a Halloween tree too!



    Michelle Sweany‍ I almost always pick out a Disney costume at least last several years! So much fun, relatively safe, and so many to chose from! I think we are doing Pirates of the Caribbean theme this year.



    The not knowing what I'm going to be until right before Halloween always makes it hard to post this year's pic in the current year! So as usual Marie Stark‍ I'm with you!
  • Updated my profile pic of last years DoSeum Staff Halloween costumes! 
  • Updated my profile pic to a birthday cake my mom made a a few years ago! Love it and I love seeing all these Fall-o-ween selfies/pics!!! 
  • Seeing as yesterday was the first day since May 21 that we had a temperature of 65 (hottest summer on record in Phoenix), it's hard to get into a fall mood yet! But we do have the windows open this morning -- yay!
  • Updated my pic to a teal pumpkin alongside a traditional Jack-o-Lantern. My daughter has severe peanut and tree nut allergies, so the teal pumpkin project is a great way to raise awareness of food allergies (and that not all kids can safely enjoy trick-or-treating). 
  • Was the Area 51 thing really a year ago? That feels like it just happened and feels like three years ago at the same time. 2020 has been the craziest year.
  • Profile pic updated!  While being evacuated for the most recent fire here in Northern California, I took a lovely 2 hour walk around where I was staying and spotted many fun Halloween decorations in yards and around the downtown area.  This is of my favorite.
  • I changed my profile pic to be one of my daughter and I last Halloween. 
  • I changed mine to my girls and their pumpkins... Love this time of year!
