Events

• Are you a crossdresser?
• Are you closeted but want to get out?
• Are you an out-and-about crossdresser who wants to get together with like-minded people for a week of fun and learning?
• Are you questioning your gender identity?
• Is gender transition part of your search, your plan or your reality?
• Are you the spouse or Significant Other of a cross dresser or of a person in gender transition?

If you answered YES to one or more of the above questions, then Esprit is for you! If you're still not sure, consider the following:

• Esprit lasts for a full week when most other conferences last for only 2 to 3 days.
• At Esprit education is a primary goal, not an afterthought.
• Esprit has top quality onsite resources to attend to your every need. In most cases the resources are also presenters in the educational program.
• Esprit is held in Port Angeles, Washington, one of the most beautiful locations in the country. The residents of Port Angeles are very accepting and look forward to the conference every year. There is no safer or more accepting venue anywhere for the emerging cross dresser.
• At Esprit, Significant Others are treated on an equal footing with the transgendered participants. Significant Others who are attending for the first time go through the graduation ceremony the same as their transgendered partners! According to Dr. Sandra Cole, an internationally known counselor and therapist, Esprit is THE flagship conference when it comes to including and supporting our wonderful Significant Others.
• Every participant receives a beautiful yearbook packed full of pictures and memories! There is NO extra charge for this wonderful souvenir.
• The registration cost is usually no more, and in some cases less, than other 2 to 3 day conferences.

And this is just the beginning. Esprit's true magic comes from the simple presence of so many like-minded people. When you combine the people and the official offerings, what happens and what you take away from Esprit may surprise you. Some treat Esprit like a casual vacation and pick just a few of the planned activities, and others try to do absolutely everything. Some come just once while others come year after year. What you do is up to you, and from what we've seen over the years, Esprit has put together a winning formula that manages to satisfy virtually everyone...and leave a lasting impression on all who come.

Esprit is an exciting, liberating experience, certain to boost your spirits and leave you with a warm glow long after the convention ends. If you've attended before, you know this is true. If you've never attended, talk to someone who has. We're confident you'll like what you hear.
