Latest DLV 2020 updates:

This mailing gives mostly some quick updates.

Just click on the green "Registration" tile and you're on your way!

If you have any difficulty with registration, email dlv@divalas.vegas or

. . . . . . . . . .

As of Friday morning, after only 8 days of open registration, we
currently have 85 individuals signed up to attend!

This number is significantly higher than we had last year at this time.
(For a comparison, we had 70 signed up at the beginning of the third full
week of January in 2019.)

Our rate of mailing list joins is also significantly higher than we had
at this time last year.

Although it's far too early to do any headcount projections, the initial
signs are pointing to a larger turnout than we had last year.

We'll keep reporting on registration numbers in these general mailings.

On the activity front:

Several updates since the last mailing.

Golf has been confirmed for Tuesday morning and afternoon.

The featured show for DLV 2020 will be Ru Paul's Drag Race at the
Flamingo on Tuesday evening, with a Pre-Show Dinner at a new steak
house at the Flamingo.

There will be another dinner-show track on Friday evening, with details
to be announced shortly.

Also on Friday we'll have a tour of the Neon Museum downtown in the
late morning and early afternoon.

Diva Las Vegas on-site check-in will be held Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday
of DLV week at the Flamingo.

We're planning to include summary working schedules in these general
mailings beginning with the next one, which will be in the next 1-2
weeks.

Big Sister volunteers needed:

Delaney (Big Sister Coordinator) writes:

Big Sister Volunteers are Needed !!

Currently, we are current short two Big Sisters, and as it's only the
first week of January, I would expect the need for several additional
Big Sisters beyond these two.

As we all know, DLV has experienced a bit of a fall off in attendance
the past few years. One of the easiest ways to stabilize our future
numbers is to retain new attendees, so please consider volunteering and
helping make a newbie's first DLV memorable.
. . . . .

You may volunteer to be a Big Sister by either returning to your
registration screen via your Attendee Information Portal, which is the
link you received after you registered, or by simply replying to this
mailing stating that you wish to be a Big Sister volunteer.

As an added incentive this year, those who volunteer to be Big Sisters
will be granted voting status in the DLV Volunteer Group for the current
year. Details appear at this link:
