Sigma Epsilon Meeting Weekends

A Typical Meeting Weekend Newcomers Meeting Special Weekend Events

Our primary support vehicle is through monthly meeting weekends where a cross dresser can get to know others who share the gender gift of heterosexual cross dressing.

Sigma Epsilon is one of the few Tri-Ess Chapters in the nation that holds weekend-long meeting. This provides out-of-town members an opportunity to enjoy a extended and relaxing way to socialize with their sisters -- and it provides in-towner the flexibility of attending all or part of a meeting weekend.

We meet every month at an upscale Atlanta hotel with which we have had an ongoing relationship for many years. Your security and privacy is the number one priority and you can trust that your safety and privacy will never be compromised at Sigma Epsilon.

As part of our initial Security screening process, it is important to note that before attending your first meeting, it will be necessary for you to call our information line and talk with our Outreach Director, Heather.

All members and guests are required to strictly adhere to the dress-code and conduct as outlined in the Sigma Epsilon Security Guidelines.

A Typical Meeting Weekend

The meeting weekends begin on Friday evening in our hospitality suite at the hotel. Saturday begins with the Newcomers' Meeting, then shopping trips or organized event in the afternoon and an evening dinner at one of our great Atlanta restaurants. The weekend ends at Bubba Breakfast (a non-dressed event) on Sunday morning at a local restaurant.

If you are interested in coming to a Sigma Epsilon meeting, we would love to have you as our guest. Sigma Epsilon provides two free meeting weekends to get to know us before you are asked to apply for membership. After these two initial meetings, of you wish to continue to attend - then on your third visit we request that you become a member.

If your spouse or significant other would like to attend with you, we would love to have them as our guest as well. There are always qualified spouses available to answer any questions, should they need information from a spouse/S.O. perspective.

Newcomers' Meeting

The Newcomers' Meeting is held at 10:00 each Saturday morning of each meeting weekend, is highly recommended for anyone attending their first Sigma Epsilon weekend.

Held in the privacy of our meeting suite, cross dressers as well as spouses and S.O.'s find this meeting very helpful and informative. Not only does it allow you to become more acquainted with Sigma Epsilon, this meeting also provides an excellent opportunity to better understand cross dressing and how Sigma Epsilon can strengthen your relationship with your loved ones.

Couples' Valentine Dinner in February

The Couples' Valentine Dinner is a tradition at Sigma Epsilon. This non-dressed dinner is held on the Saturday evening of our February meeting and is an opportunity for cross dressers to treat their spouse and significant other to an elegant dinner and to meet other Sigma Epsilon couples in a non-dressed environment.

Spring Ball

Held in April, the Sigma Epsilon Spring Ball is our annual formal event. Held in a private ballroom at our meeting hotel in Atlanta, the Spring Ball starts with a champagne reception followed by a fabulous buffet. Afterwards there is music, dancing and a contest to crown a Ball Queen. Our sisters, their spouses and significant others are encouraged to come dressed in style with flashy dresses (lots of sequins, color, beading and/or glitter), a dramatic flare on the makeup and flashy jewelry! This is a good chance to show your creativity and will be a good time had by all.
