| Tri-Ess (officially The Society for
the Second Self, Inc.) and Alpha Chapter of Tri-Ess have separate
application forms and separate dues structures. Please download the
application forms by clicking the logos or links below. Then, print them and
fill them out. Please mail the Tri-Ess form to the address on that form. You
may also mail the Alpha Chapter form or, better yet, bring it to a meeting.
Dues and meeting fees may be paid by check, money order, or cash. (NEVER
mail cash!) We cannot accept credit cards.
Tri-Ess is the parent
organization of all local Tri-Ess chapters nationwide. With your Tri-Ess
membership, you receive The Mirror, a quarterly publication for
Tri-Ess members only, and an optional listing in the Tri-Ess Directory
If your wife or significant other also joins, she receives The
Sweetheart Connection, a quarterly publication for wives/SOs. Most
importantly, you support Tri-Ess' efforts in educating the general public,
as well as its members, about crossdressing and associated issues. While we
prefer that you join Tri-Ess before joining Alpha Chapter, that is not
mandatory. Both applications can be in process at the same time.
Alpha Chapter is
the Los Angeles chapter of Tri-Ess. We hold monthly in-person meetings in
the Los Angeles area and occasionally sponsor special events. Typically,
meetings include an excellent dinner and a speaker plus social time before
and after the meeting. We offer this web site and a Yahoo discussion group
for your use. With membership, you receive our monthly newsletter,
Alpha-Bits, to inform you of upcoming events and to present articles and
news about crossdressing and related matters. Most importantly, we offer a
safe, secure place to meet with and learn from others like yourself. Wives
and significant others are always welcome at meetings and events. Almost all
meetings have at least one--usually several--wives/SOs in attendance. While
you are most welcome to attend en femme (dressed), you may attend in drab if
you wish. A changing room is available to dress on-site. Visitors may sample
as many as three meetings before joining. Please contact our President for
information on joining us.
Please note: If you mail forms to either
Tri-Ess or Alpha Chapter, please use regular First Class mail. Do NOT send
by Registered or Certified mail. There may be no one available to sign for
such mail. |
