All ready to go:

This is the last regular weekly mailing for Diva Las Vegas 2001. Most
everything is all set. All we have to do now is show up and have fun. :)

Let me apologize to you in advance if during DLV I get assertive to the
point of being pushy (or even bordering on bitchy) when it comes to
keeping everybody moving and on time. I appreciate everybody's
cooperation on this.

Personally, I need a vacation very badly. :) I'm looking forward to
seeing old friends and making new ones.

If you've just joined the list, yes, you can still get in on the fun,
see instructions below. If you've been counting the days since last
year, the big event is just about to happen. :)

Headcounts and such:

Thanks to everybody who has responded to the request for headcounts. We've
got a good handle on approximate numbers now.

If anybody is a late register-er, please send us a brief note if you
will be going with the group on any of the following activities (please
note how many in your party will attend on each):

1. Thursday afternoon shopping trip.
2. Friday morning air tour. (see note below)
3. Kenny Kerr show on Saturday.
4. Hoover Dam tour on Sunday.
5. Rhyolite side trip on Monday.

Folies show tickets (please read carefully):

Clarification on one activity where I think there's some misunderstanding,
especially from those who just joined the list.

A few people who responded to the headcount questions added that they will
be attending the Folies Bergere show on Sunday. (This was not one of the
headcount questions.)

For those who have made reservations with Tina and have already prepaid,
yes, your seat is confirmed and you will be sitting with the group.

The cut-off date for the group seating was, unfortunately, two weeks ago.

Yes, you still can attend, but you may or may not be able to sit near
the rest of the DLV group. Seats are reserved and assigned at the
time of booking. If you want to attend, phone the Tropicana box office
(800-634-4000) and state you want to be as close to booth 503 as
possible. You will have to guarantee your reservation with a credit
card at the time you book.

One seat left:

As of this writing, there is one seat left for the air tours on Friday.
If you would like to go on this, please hit REPLY now and get your name
on the list.

To answer a previous question that came in the mail, dress for this is
up to you. Come as you are, as you want to be, or as you wish you were.

Free room at IP:

We have somebody (Gina) who has pre-paid for a room at Imperial Palace
and has to leave early on Saturday. (Arriving Wednesday, iirc.)

>Also, my room in the Imperial Palace is paid for until Monday, and it is a
>double room, so if a nonsmoker wants to share for free and stay after I
>leave its available.

Soooo ... if anybody is interested, please hit REPLY and I'll forward the
responses.
