I have been someone that has always watched from the sidelines, and never thought I fully fit into the LGBT community. It was only until I went along to a Den Night at The Laird with some friends and met some members of the Bear Community that I found such a welcoming diverse and accepting group that made me finally feel comfortable to start coming out of my shell a little.
I have found the Bear tribe to be the most down to earth, chilled and accepting group. A community with a vast diversity of body, thought and backgrounds. So it was only more than fitting that if given the option I would help this community as it helped me.
I was asked to come on to the committee to help temporarily, but I found that I fell in love with volunteering and giving my free time to this club. Therefore I put my hand up to stay on as Treasurer as it’s great to have a purpose and watch your efforts and hard work behind the scenes pay off and make members happy.
Plus I have to admit, I couldn’t ask for a better bunch of guys on this committee to be doing this work with, and no Aaron didn’t make me say that :-p
TL/DR: I basically look after QuickBooks and a bunch of spreadsheets and tell people to not spend a lot of money 🙂
I have some interests outside of the club such as travel, gym, cars as well as music. I look forward to meeting up at our next event. 🙂
