Welcome and updates:

Welcome to those who just registered or just joined the mailing list.
If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know.

We are now three weeks out from the big event. Things are happening
fast, so if anyone has anything that needs to be addressed, please
bring it up sooner rather than later, as we are entering our "crunch
time" prior to DLV 2019.

Big thanks go out to our DLV 2019 volunteers, who have put together
an exciting slate of activities for our 2019 event!

As of Friday morning our registered headcount is 154, which includes
21 SOs. New registrations are coming in at the rate of about one per
day. The numbers appear to be converging for a total show-up count
in the 130-something range.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Activity Sign-Up is in progress:

Activity Sign-Up is when you tell us which of the many optional
activities you want to do.

Everyone who registered for DLV by Saturday morning should have now
received their Activity Sign-Up mailings.

IF YOU REGISTERED PRIOR TO SATURDAY AND DID NOT
RECEIVE THIS, SOMETHING IS WRONG AND WE NEED
TO KNOW ABOUT IT! IF THIS IS THE CASE FOR YOU,
PLEASE LET US KNOW. JUST REPLY TO THIS MAILING.

The activity sign-up mailing will contain a link to your Attendee
Information Portal and instructions on how to sign up for optional
activities.

Those who later than Saturday morning will receive an activity sign-up
mailing this coming Monday.

Please be sure that you complete your activity selections as soon as you
can!

Signing up for activities is not optional, please! It also reconfirms
your intent to attend. If you don't want to do any of the activities
on the sign-up screen, just go directly to the bottom and click the
"SUBMIT" button. This lets us know that you're still alive and planning
to attend.

Please promptly report any issues, errors, unclear items, etc., when
signing up for activities.

As of this writing, all optional activities still have space available.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Missing In Action:

If anyone is in contact with Riki from LA and/or Shilpa from Atlanta,
please pass the word to them that their email is bouncing and that we
have no means of contact with them.

Please let them know that they will need to give us working email
addresses if they wish to remain registered for DLV 2019.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Big Lift Bar Crawl sign-ups:

Robin sends in the following note:

For those who make "Bar Crawl" reservations and use Paypal for your fee
I thank you I FORGOT to mention-

Please include note about who it's for unless it's already obvious.
I've got ONE payment that I cannot tie to a reservation by anything in
the PayPal information.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . .

Several new Activity Highlights have been added to the DLV Discussion

viewforum.php?f=2
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
What you need to do:

Yes, there's still plenty of time to get in on our big DLV 2019 event,
but the clock is ticking, prices for transportation and hotel rooms are
rising and some hotels are selling out.

Here's a basic summary of what you need to do if you want to join
us for DLV 2019:

* If you have not registered for DLV 2019 yet:

You will want to register ASAP. You can register on line here:

https://divalas.vegas/cgi-bin/dlv/aip.cgi

This opens the door for you! It gets you on the roster and gets the ball
rolling.
. . . . . . . . . .

* If you are registered for the big event:

If you have not yet signed up for optional activities, please do so as
soon as possible. Simply return to your Attendee Information Portal
(the URL you received shortly after you registered) and follow the
signs.

Most MyDLV members may sign up for activities by clicking on the link
on the main MyDLV screen.

If you do not want to do any of the optional activities, please go to
your Activity Sign-Up screen, scroll directly to the bottom of the page,
and click the SUBMIT button. This reconfirms your intent to attend DLV.
. . . . . . . . . .

* If you have registered (by Saturday morning) and have not yet received
your Activity Sign-Up email:

SOMETHING IS WRONG! PLEASE LET US KNOW ASAP!

If this applies to you, simply reply to this mailing and explain the
circumstances.
. . . . . . . . . .

* Make your travel and lodging arrangements. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE!

Prices are rising and hotels are filling up and selling out! The more
you wait, the more you will pay!

Information on our suggested hotels for DLV 2019 appears here:

https://divalas.vegas/dlv2019/2019hotels.html

If none of our suggested hotels appeal to you, several others which have
been used by DLVers over the years appear in our Big List of merchants
and vendors on the web here:

https://divalas.vegas/vendors/#CasinoHotel

For those who will need to travel by commercial air, prices for the DLV
dates are on the rise already! Again, please do not procrastinate!
. . . . . . . . . .

* Plan your wardrobe.

Specific dress suggestions for every DLV activity will appear on the
final detailed schedule.

If you have any questions on what is and is not appropriate to wear to
any specific activity, a good place to get an answer is the DLV
Discussion Forum. This is on line here:

viewforum.php?f=2

A good reference, of course, are the photos from prior events, going
all the way back to 1997. You can view these here:

Just click on any of the previous year tiles.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Things to come:

On or about Wednesday, March 27, we will be rolling out our Final
Attendee Information. This will include such things as:

* The Bare Minimum (a "quick-start guide" to DLV)
* Contact Information - Local contact numbers, Big Sister Hotline
* Maps And Schedules
* DLV Group Text and Activity Reminder information
* Late Notices - Changes - Updates
* New Attendee Welcome and Orientation information
* If you are feeling uneasy or uncertain
* Making contact, checking in, etc.
* Getting there and getting around
* Photography information and Guidelines
* What to do in case something is wrong
* Thanks!
* Things To Come and About Next Year

Although this information will appear on line through the conclusion of
DLV, we encourage all to print out, at minimum, the final schedule and
the local contact information, in the event of technical difficulties
during the event.
. . . . . . . . . .

For DLV 2019 you will have three options for your name tags:

1. You will be able to print out your tag(s) on line from your Attendee
Information Portal and bring them with you. Tag holders (choice of
style) will be available for those who need them.

This option will be rolled out shortly.

2. You will be able to have your tag(s) printed at DLV at the On-Site
Check-In on Sunday and Monday, the major activities on Monday evening,
any other activity noted "Name tags available" on the final schedule,
and by special arrangement.

3. Use a valid DLV name tag from previous years. Once a valid DLV name
tag, always a valid DLV name tag.

If you have a tag holder from previous years, please bring this along
with you, as tag holders are one of our significant non-reimbursed
expenses.
. . . . . . . . . .

On Friday, March 29, all routine email received will be held for
response until the event has concluded.

THIS INCLUDES ROUTINE QUESTIONS AND QUERIES
REGARDING THIS YEAR'S EVENT!

Please be sure to get any questions, concerns, etc., which need a
response in prior to Friday, March 29.
. . . . . . . . . .

When you get to Las Vegas, you may check in to DLV at the On-Site Check
In at the Flamingo on Sunday or Monday afternoon, at any of the major
activities on Monday evening, or at any activity marked "Check In
Available" on the final schedule.
