First Event 2007

For those of you who don’t know, there are a number of transgender conferences that run throughout the year. Conferences such as Southern Comfort Conference, The Lake Erie Gala, California Dreamin, Be All, Fantasia Fair, Sparkle, and many others get attendance anywhere’s from 300 to over 1000+ every year. The goals for most of these are to educate the transgender community on a range of topics, to give many a chance to be with others who share the same Gender Identity Disorder (whether they be Male-to-Female or Female-to-Male) and finally for people to have a chance to have fun. The attendees are a rich mixture of transgender folk and those who are not and that lends for an outstanding opportunity to learn about others and to learn about ourselves.

The Boston area hosts a number of these events and the one that runs first is Tiffany Club of New England’s (TCNE) First Event. Sponsored by TCNE and worked on by a hive of volunteers, this year’s First Event is being held at the Burlington Boston Marriott, in Burlington MA, January 17th-21st, 2007.
