We Have a Winner!
The 2019 CUGC T-Shirt Design contest posed stiff competition once again, with more than a dozen submissions and three great finalists. Once the Steering Committee completed the daunting task of narrowing the submissions down to the top three, we turned the final vote over to you, the community.
Drumroll please 🥁…. First place goes to …. 🥁 Toan Thai for his design, “Into the Matrix.”
Second place goes to Nicolas Ouellet for “CUGC Royal Emblem,” and our third place winner is Patrick Coble for “Connections.” Congratulations to Toan, Nicolas and Patrick!
And now, for something new!
This year, we gave our second and third place winners a little surprise by including their designs in some of our Synergy swag for the first time: the limited edition 2019 laptop sticker and CUGC button will incorporate Nicolas and Patrick’s designs.
You’ll be able to pick up your shirt, sticker and button at Citrix Synergy 2019 at the CUGC booth in the Community Hub in Synergy Park. We hope to see you there. And we hope to see you and your shirt and CUGC swag on Twitter and at local CUGC events around the globe throughout the year.
Thank you to everyone who submitted a design and voted. Your submissions and participation make this truly a community-driven contest, and it’s only getting better with each year!
Here again are your winners:

“Into the Matrix” by Toan Thai, USA

“CUGC Royal Emblem” by Nicolas Ouellet, Canada

“Connections” by Patrick Coble, USA
