Welcome:
Welcome to those who just joined our mailing list. If you have any
questions or concerns, please be sure to let us know.
The timeframe for announcement of the proposed dates for Diva Las Vegas
2018 is sometime in August. As usual, there will be a one-month Call For
Comments before the proposed dates are considered final. We'll send out
a general mailing as soon as the DLV Volunteer Group has voted on dates.
See more in "Things To Come" below.

Two week warning on photo staging:
Our photo staging area will remain open through Sunday, July 2.
If you attended DLV 2017 you'll have until that date to review the
photos in the staging area and, optionally, mark any in which you appear
for removal.
Likewise, you'll be able to "like" those you want to see included on the
final DLV 2017 follow-up pages.
Timeframe for roll-out of the DLV 2017 follow-up pages is sometime in
August. You'll be able to tell when the 2017 pages are up when the
"2017" tile appears in the "Previous Years" section of the web site.
You can help move things along by reviewing the pages, looking for
near-duplicate photos, and "like-ing" the one you prefer. Sorting
through duplicates and near-duplicates is the most time-consuming
process in creating the final pages.
As of this mailing, everything received in the Call For Photos has been
posted and all removal requests received by Friday have been processed.
Total photo count this year is 2049! Thanks to all who submitted photos
of our 2017 event!

Volunteers:
If you answered the Call For Volunteers, you can expect to receive an
introductory message from the Diva Las Vegas Organizers Group (DLVORG)
during the first week in July.
If you volunteered and do not receive this by Saturday, July 8 at the
very latest, please let us know.
There's still time to volunteer!
If you wish to do your part in making a great thing even better, just
send in a brief note to dlvorg@divalas.vegas

Things to come:
The 2017-2018 DLV Organziers Group will convene in July. One of the
first items of business will be the proposed dates for Diva Las Vegas
2018.
We plan to announce the proposed dates sometime in August and allow a
one-month Call For Comments on the dates before they are final. Please
watch your inboxes for announcements on this.
. . . . .
August of 2017 is also the target date for the roll-out of the DLV 2017
follow-up pages on the web site.
In other "web" news, in the autumn of 2017 we'll be converting the main
divalas.vegas domain to what is known as "https", mainly for
improvements in privacy and security. If you don't know what this is,
don't worry about it. The change will be transparent to most web
viewers.
. . . . .
In late September, Pinkfest 2017 happens in Chicago! See note below.
. . . . .
In late autumn, we'll be announcing our suggested hotels for DLV 2017. A
general mailing will be sent out when these have been decided upon.
. . . . .
This year we'll be moving a few milestones and checkpoints earlier in
the process.
Re-registration for returning attendees will begin in mid December.
New attendee registration for DLV 2018 is planned for January.

Pinkfest in September:
Yes, one year is too long to wait for another DLV!
Pinkfest was expanded last year and now runs six days. Pinkfest 2017
will happen from Tuesday evening, September 26 thru Sunday, October 1.
For those who don't know about Pinkfest, it's a "Vacation, not a
convention" which occurs each October in Chicago. It's often been
described as a "mini spin-off of DLV" although the two events are
organizationally independent.
If you've attended DLV recently, you're sure to see familiar faces at
this year's Pinkfest.

Hope to see you in Chicago this September!
