/(For those new to CUGOS or curious about what the “Fall Fling” is, read 
on below.)/

The *Cascadia Users of Geospatial Open Source (CUGOS)* was founded in 
2007 and serves as the Cascadia Chapter 
<http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Cascadia> of the OSGeo Foundation 
<http://www.osgeo.org/>. We are a non-profit community of open source 
GIS enthusiasts — from students to professionals, from academia to 
industry, and including active OSGeo contributors (board members, 
charter members, and project participants).

CUGOS provides a space to share work, exchange ideas, and celebrate the 
power of open source geospatial tools. Learn more:

This year’s *Fall Fling* will be a one-day, low-cost event bringing 
together academics, professionals, students, and enthusiasts for a full 
day of presentations on open source geospatial tools and open data in 
and beyond the Puget Sound region. Talks will cover projects like QGIS, 
PostGIS, MapServer, GDAL/OGR, OpenLayers, and more (see also: OSGeo 
projects 
<https://www.osgeo.org/projects/><https://www.osgeo.org/projects/> )
