Welcome and updates:

Welcome to those who just registered or joined the mailing list. If you
have any questions or concerns, just reply to this mailing and ask.

Plans are moving forward for our big event in October, despite the
recent Covid setback. We have well over 200 signed up to attend, and
our schedule of activities is full and exciting.

Our vaccination survey shows that over 88% of our attendees will have at
least some immunity. This is significantly greater than the percentage
for the US population as a whole, and shows that our people do value
their health and the health of others.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The Covid-19 situation:

We are well aware of the uncertainty that has been created due to the
recent Covid-19 flare-ups in Nevada and in the US in general.

We are closely watching the situation and we'll inform everyone very
promptly of any developments which will negatively affect our event
in October.

Time is still on our side, and the authorities and venues are taking
this very seriously in order to get this "fourth wave" under control
as soon as possible.

The one item that is critical to the success of our event is the ability
to hold medium and larger gatherings. Therefore, any restrictions in
capacity of such things as gatherings and dining groups will impact our
ability to hold a successful event.

As of this writing, no capacity restrictions have been re-imposed.

Both the State Of Nevada and Clark County (including Las Vegas) have
current mitigation efforts.

The Clark County mitigation items are currently set to expire August 17.

For the statewide Nevada mitigation items, things will be re-evaluated
each Tuesday and, if circumstances warrant, restrictions will be relaxed
on a county-by-county basis.

Counties that have a moderate or lower risk rating for two or more
consecutive weeks, as tracked by CDC, will have the mask requirement
and other restrictions removed.

We will continue to provide updates on this situation.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Activity Sign-Up begins shortly:

Sometime during the next two weeks, everyone holding a Diva Las Vegas
2021 registration will receive a note via email inviting them to sign up
for optional activities.

This will include a link to a personal Activity Sign-Up screen.

Most of the activities on our schedule are "No sign-up, just show up"
in nature, meaning all that you need to do to participate is to be a
registered DLV attendee and show up at the time and place.

However, some of them do require such things as a heacount, an advance
sign-up, and in some cases a pre-payment or additional action such as a
ticket purchase. You sign up for these at Activity Sign-Up time which
will begin next week.

Please be watching for your Activity Sign-Up email!

Activity Highlight - Pole Dance Instruction:

We will have a private class from 1:00 to 2:15pm on Friday, October 29th
at Pole Fitness Studio (https://www.polefitnessstudio.com/) which is just
off Flamingo.

It will cost $40 per person, payable at the activity.

The classroom has 17 poles so space is limited, first-signed, first
served.

It is recommended that girls wear athletic wear (think yoga clothes,
sport bra etc). Wear what makes you feel sexy and comfortable and gives
you freedom to move. It does help to have exposed skin on your arms and
legs when you want to grip the pole.

It is recommended that girls try to arrive 10-15 min early to fill out a
waiver if they have not been to the studio before.

You can sign up for Pole Dance Instruction on your Activity Sign-Up
screen when Activity Sign-Up is rolled out in the near future.

Big Sister volunteers still needed:

We remain behind in Big Sisters, currently we are five short. We could
really use your help on this one - five is a significant deficit, and
typically we will receive additional requests for more Big Sisters close
to the event, as plans finalize.

Please consider signing on !!!!!

To volunteer to be a Big Sister, visit your Attendee Information Portal
(the link you received after you registered) or just reply to this
mailing.

As per a recently-adopted standing rule, Big Sister volunteers qualify
for voting status in the DLV Volunteer Group!
