Welcome:
First of all, we welcome those who just registered or just joined our
mailing list. If you have any questions or concerns, please let us
know, just reply to this mailing.
We are now approaching the four-month mark. Things continue to fall
into place very nicely and everyone is getting excited!
. . . . .
Our suggested hotel for Diva Las Vegas 2023 is the Linq, located in the
heart of the Las Vegas Strip.
Special group rates are available to DLV 2023 attendees.
For information about our suggested hotel and to book your room under
the group rate plan, please visit this URL:
https://divalas.vegas/dlv2023/2023hotel.html
. . . . .
Beginning with this mailing, we will be including a summary copy of our
working schedule.
One caveat about these working schedules please!
PLEASE DO NOT USE THESE AS A FINAL
AND ACCURATE DLV 2023 SCHEDULE!
Many additions and changes will occur and many attendees have ended up
at the wrong place and/or time in previous years by using stale working
schedules!
Those who register for DLV 2023 will receive the final schedule, in many
optional forms (simple, detailed, print-friendly, mobile-friendly,
etc.), as part of the Final Attendee Information just prior to DLV.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
DLV 2023 registration is open:
Most of you who have attended in recent years should have now received a
link to a minimum-click re-registration screen.
If you recently attended and did not receive this, just let us know
(just reply to this mailing) and we will force it.
These links can be used by one person (or couple) only. Please do not
try using someone else's re-registration link. You will end up
registering somebody else!
If you have never attended DLV, you may register on line here:
https://divalas.vegas/cgi-bin/dlv/aip.cgi
Just click on the green "Registration" tile and follow the prompts.
If you have any difficulty with registration for our event, please let
us know and you will receive a prompt and courteous response. Just
reply to this mailing.
One important note about registration, if you register (or re-register)
and receive ABSOLUTELY NOTHING from us via email, SOMETHING IS
WRONG and we need to know about it!
If this should happen, please let us know and we will correct things.
Please email: dlv@divalas.vegas or simply reply to this mailing.
. . . . .
When you register, you will have the opportunity to donate to help
defray the costs of our event.
This is strictly voluntary and is not consideration for services
rendered, but reimbursement for some of our out-of-pocket expenses
occurred in the operation of our event.
Please consider this when you register.

Big thanks to our volunteers:
Diva Las Vegas would not be possible if it were not for our many
dedicated volunteers!
Unlike other events, we do not have one small group making all of the
plans. We share the workload. All of our activities are independently
planned and each one is sponsored by one or more of our volunteers.
It all comes together as the DLV event that we know and love!
This year's volunteer group has been exceptional in terms of initiative
and eagerness to plan and serve!
We sincerely thank our volunteers for their efforts this year!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Activity and schedule highlights:
We will have two large-scale major gatherings this year, happening on
Tuesday and Thursday evenings of DLV week.
Both will include a happy hour, optional dinner (with full regular menu
at regular prices) and plenty of that Quality Social Time for mingling.
The first (Tuesday) will be at Bahama Breeze, which we've used for our
first major gathering for almost a decade. This is an easy drive (or
taxi ride, or even a do-able walk, assuming you like to walk) from our
primary suggested hotel, The Linq.
The second (Thursday) will be at Virgil's BBQ, which is in the Linq
Mall, a few steps from where many in our group will be staying. This
will be our first major gathering at Virgil's, but we've had smaller
gatherings there over the years with excellent ratings.
. . . . .
Golf is confirmed for Thursday morning.
The Pool Party (swimming/sunbathing, not billiards) will be Thursday
afternoon.
Pickleball will be happening on Wednesday morning.
. . . . .
Monday afternoon and evening will be our designated Downtown Day, with
many activities happening the Downtown Las Vegas vicinity.
Topgolf (with optional lunch) will happen Tuesday.
A side trip to Seven Magic Mountains will be on Wednesday afternoon.
. . . . .
Our schedule is far from complete. Please stay tuned for more.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Things to come:
During the next few months, our volunteers will be concentrating on
filling up and rounding out our daily schedule.
We will be reporting on our progress in these mailings, which will be
happening about once per month until the event approaches.
. . . . .
Activity Sign-up will be beginning in late September or early October.
This is where you tell us which of the many optional activities that
you want to do.
Further details will be announced as the date approaches.
. . . . .
During the week prior to our big event we will release the Final
Attendee Information for DLV 2023.
This will include things such as:
* The Bare Minimum - a "Quick Start" guide.
* Late Notices - Changes - Updates
* DLV 2023 Contact Information

* Making contact, checking in, etc.
* Getting there and getting around - Transportation info

. . . . .
