Welcome and updates:

Welcome to all who have just registered or just joined the mailing list.
If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know. (Just reply
to any of these mailings.)

We're now eight weeks out from the big event and everyone is getting
excited about it! Plans are falling in place and our schedule is taking
shape nicely. Big thanks go out to our volunteers who have done a
fantastic job putting together this year's schedule of activities!

Registration for our 2017 event is now open to all. You may register on
line here:

If you have any questions or issues with registration, please let us
know. (dlv@divalas.vegas or simply reply to any of these mailings.)
. . . . . . . . . .

Numbers report:

We now have 130 individuals signed up to attend, with an average of one
new registration per day. All signs are pointing to an excellent turnout
this year!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Activity updates:

Big thanks go out to our team of volunteers who are putting together a
great slate of activities for you this year.

Recent additions include the Art Tour on Tuesday afternoon at the
Bellagio Gallery of Art, which will be featuring Samurai Armor from
ancient Japan.

On Wednesday afternoon we'll have a repeat of the highly-rated Kiss
Monster Mini-Golf at the Rio.

Following our Farewell Dinner on Thursday evening, we'll have a choice
of the Limo Tour or a Dance Party at Carnaval Court.

Others are in the works, so please stay tuned for details.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Things to come:

Our next big milestone will be Activity Sign-up, which will begin on or
about March 25.

This is when you tell us which of several optional activities you would
like to do.

Most of our activities are "no sign-up, just show up" in nature but some
require some kind of advance sign-up, headcount, etc. This is done at
Activity Sign-up time.

Everybody who is registered will receive a personal Activity Sign-up
email which will contain a link to a personal sign-up screen. In
addition, Activity Sign-up may be reached via the Attendee Information
Portal, which is the link you received shortly after you registered.

Please be watching for your Activity Sign-up email which will be sent
out on or about March 25.

If you change your mind on anything, you can go back and change your
selections up until any designated cut-off dates.
. . . . .

We heard you. We will be making our Final Activity Information available
earlier than we have in past years.

On or about April 8 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

One reminder is that we will not be handing out any paper material such
as maps and schedules at the event. You will want to print out what you
think you need and bring it with you. There will be several versions of
the main schedule available for viewing on line and for printing.

When you get to the big event, you can check in at the On-Site Check-In
at the Flamingo on Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday, or at any other activity
which is noted "Check-in available" on the final detailed schedule.

Big Sister appeal:

Delaney (Big Sister Coordinator) writes:

Ladies, we have only had two Big Sister volunteers to date, putting us
pretty well behind where we historically are at this point.

I do understand that DLV is being held a bit later this year, and many
are not focusing on it just yet, however if you are considering serving,
please send your name in as soon as possible. April will be here in no
time !!!

Thanks

Hotel Update:

Hi all. Cami here.

We are quickly approaching our 2018 DLV Vacation and I have some
exciting hotel updates.

All of our attendees booking rooms under our special rate plan will be
assigned Go Rooms, which are a step up from the run of the house "Fab"
rooms. Several recent photos of the Go Rooms are on line here:

https://www.oyster.com/las-vegas/hotels ... s/go-room/

These rooms are really nice and modern. Please take advantage of these
special group rates by clicking this link:

https://aws.passkey.com/go/SFDIV8

You may also book your room by phone at 888-373-9855 (toll-free within
US) using the code SFDIV8. Please note that the reservationist taking
your call will not be aware of the nature of our group.

As an incentive to book now, any attendee that has already booked or
completes booking by March 1st will be eligible for a drawing for a FREE
Round-trip Limo ride from McCarren Airport to the Flamingo. Start your
vacation in style! Since we have two of these, there will be TWO
winners. (Those driving would not be eligible for obvious reasons.)

We also have TWO VIP Amenity Packages for your stay that we will raffle
off as well. Again, any attendee that has already booked or completes
booking by March 1st will be eligible for this drawing.

The Flamingo is our unofficial event headquarters and it is close to
many of the events to be held, including our Monday luncheon, our
Farewell Dinner on Thursday, our pick-up point for the Limo tour and Bar
crawl and socials at Carnival Court.

If you are looking for comfort in numbers and people of like-kind then
the Flamingo is a great choice.

Join over 50 attendees who are calling the Flamingo home while at Diva
Las Vegas.

Book your room today and be eligible for great rates, our special
drawings and renovated rooms!

If you have any questions, please write me at cami.desiree@yahoo.com. I
would be happy to help.

Activity Highlight - Big Lift Bar Crawl:

Robin writes:

This is your opportunity to see and experience Vegas with friends in
ways you might never have before.

We will leave the Flamingo and visit 3 lounges specifically chosen for
an adult group of about 25 of us. We plan to return to the Flamingo
about 1:30am with any survivors.

There will be a pre-paid $30 transportation fee for our own bus for the
entire evening and the night is BYOB.

Dress is suggested to be tasteful evening attire with NOTHING fetish or
slutty. Persons dressed inappropriately for mainstream interaction may
be denied boarding the party bus. Shoes that you can count on for the
evening would also be suggested.
