🎉 Meet the Committee Leads:
[Maxwell Wieneke] (Committee Chair) https://www.facebook.com/maxwell.wieneke
Hello! My name is Maxwell. I am a blue-collared transmasc bear. I have lived in the northwest my entire life, and I have always been a fighter who is loud and proud of who I am. I have no plans to stop; I am here to continue making a difference, to be a voice for the voiceless, and to create a

safe space for everyone while educating when possible. I am excited to help coordinate this event with so many wonderful people here in Forest Grove, and I look forward to many more opportunities in the future. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

[Ashton Wieneke] (Social Media Outreach Lead) https://www.facebook.com/ashtonwieneke
Hello! My name is Ashton 🥰 I use he/they/it/any pronouns. Just like my pronouns list, my microlabels can be a bit long, so I find trans and q***r to be the easiest way to describe myself. Growing up in Iowa and in a traditionally conservative family, I didn't have much support around me to be myself. I moved to Oregon 4 years ago and have finally found the community and family I've been missing. I want to make sure that every LGBTQ+ person has that same opportunity, and I want to help create the space needed for that.
