 Here are links to some resources that I think will prove useful to the M2F Transgendered person. Not all of these sites are up to date, but most contain information (that at times) I've found useful.  I will be adding more links and more information as it is provided to me by my readers....

2. Online information and service links:

pre-meeting social at the Raven in New Hope.

Mondays has piano music and show and it seems that
this would always be a good safe place to show up while dressed.

Poughkeepsie, NY - Unitarian Fellowship Hall
67 South Randolph Ave, Poughkeepsie, NY

A few dressers meet and eat at Pizza Hut Rt. 9 Wappingers Falls, NY.

- Clubs/Lounges:

Barz1

barz1@aol.com

Georgies Bar
812 5th Ave (at tracks)
Asbury Park
Every Monday a drag show
Every Sunday is Ladies night out in NJ 8 PM-1 AM
It seems that Wednesday and Saturday nights are sure times to find other CDs. It seems from the weekly AP updates that there is a drag event at 10 PM on Thursdays and that there is Drag Bingo on Tuesdays. My guess is that this is a safe and low key place to go any night of the week and there are good odds of there being other dressers around.

Amanda's Hideaway at the PL Lounge.
Every Saturday Night TG party
49 Louis Street (off rt 46 and Phillips)

RS Jones 
153 Merrick Ave, 
Merrick, NY. 
It appears that a few (3-6) dressers go there once or twice a month, usually on a Thursday night just for dinner.

Angelina Vail seems to now be hosting somewhat regular parties that she calls Fluid at the Rendezvous Lounge, 
346 Broadway, in Kingston. 
She can be reached at Angelinavail@yahoo.com. More info is at www.whatisfluid.com. Angelina advises that the Rendezvous Lounge is always T friendly.
