Over 90% of the questions we receive via e-mail are already answered,
often in depth, on our FAQ list!
There's lots of recent activity and discussion on the Diva Las Vegas
Discussion Forum, on line here:

. . . . . . . . . .
Latest numbers:
As of Friday morning we have a total of 134 individuals signed up to
attend and participate. We are on track for a total turnout of about the
same or slightly higher than last year, depending on how many sign up
within the next month or so.
Further reports will be made as the date approaches.

General DLV 2014 registration is open:
All individuals who plan to participate in Diva Las Vegas will need to
register. This includes previous attendees, volunteers, and those who
are local to Las Vegas.
Registration is your "key to the door" for our event.
Everyone can register, as a new attendee or a returnee, here:
http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/dlvreg2014.html
Most returnees can also re-register at the URL that was sent around the
first of the year. If this has been misplaced, simply request a resend.
MyDLV members can register or re-register using the appropriate button
on the main screen.

New Attendee Welcome and Orientation:
We are encouraging all who have never attended Diva Las Vegas in the
past, regardless of background or experience level, to attend our
special New Attendee Welcome and Orientation.
This will be your "official welcome" to our event.
This will occur on Monday of DLV week just prior to the main evening
festivities, in the same venue.
No, we're not gonna talk down to you or lecture you on how to dress or
behave!
We are taking pains to make this comfortable for those who are new to
public exposure, and interesting and relevant for Las Vegas locals,
those who are familiar with other events, and those who have significant
public exposure.
To encourage attendance, there will be a meaningful and substantial
prize give-away during this activity All new attendees who are present
will be eligible to win! This is something that everyone will like and
will be able to use.
Please make plans to attend this if you are new to DLV.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Activity sign-up:
As of this time we have a total of 84 different activities on our
six-day schedule! This is an all-time record for us, and big thanks
go out to our team of volunteers for putting this all together!
Of our total of 84 activities, about half of them are "no sign-up,
just show up", meaning that all you need to do to participate is be
a registered DLV attendee and be present at the time and location.
However, 42 of them will require some kind of in-advance sign-up or
headcount.
We do this at activity sign-up time which is only a few weeks away.
Activity sign-up is where you tell us which of the many (42 as of
the last count) optional activities you want to do.
Shortly after the first of March, everyone who is registered will
receive a special e-mail containing a link to a personal activity
sign-up screen.
It will take only a few minutes, and it's very easy to sign up for
optional activities. It's also very easy if you want to change your
mind, in most cases.
Highlights of many of our activities appear in the Diva Las Vegas
Discussion Forum, on the web at:
viewforum.php?f=2
Activity highlights are "sticky" and appear toward the top of the first
page. You are welcome to ask any questions about any of the highlighted
activities or comment further on them.

Big Sister volunteers needed:
Delaney (Big Sister Coordinator) writes:
We are currently without enough Big Sister volunteers to match with each
Little Sister who has requested assistance.
Please consider volunteering for this personally rewarding experience -
it offers an opportunity to give back to the transgendered community by
helping a girl who has had little, or no public experience prior to DLV.
Most just require some encouragement and a person to rely on for advice
and support.
Please volunteer either via the DLV registration page or by sending an
email to Delaney at: bigsister@geekbabe.com

Hotels:
If you need a place to stay during our event, it is very important that
you make your reservations now, as prices are on the rise and hotels are
filling up! (Remember! DLV happens next month!)
Hotel selection is very important if you will need local transportation
to our activities. If you wish to share rides with others, it's
imperative that you stay within the proximity of others who will be
attending. One thing we want to avoid this year is anyone missing out
on something because they can't get to it!
Information on our suggested hotels appears on line here:
http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/2014hotels.html
If none of thes suggested hotels appeal to you, please use the list of
hotels (both casino-hotels and non-gaming hotels) on our Big List as a
secondary list of suggestions. This is on line here:
http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/vendors/#CasinoHotel
If you will be needing local transportation, please be sure that you
will be within easy walking distance to our suggested hotels, which are
all located within a few blocks of the Las Vegas Boulevard (Strip) and
Flamingo Road intersection.
There has been some meaningful hotel discussion on the Diva Las Vegas
Discussion Forum, on line here:
viewforum.php?f=2
If you have any questions or concerns about hotels, that is the place to
ask.
