Arriving and making contact:
For those who are registered, all you need to do is to show up at one of
our activities. There's no permanent check-in desk for DLV.
You can check in at any activity marked "Check-in available" on the
final schedule in the Final Attendee Information.
If the first activity you want to attend does not have check-in
available, don't worry. As long as you appear on our roster you will be
admitted. You may just have to wait in order to check in officially and
get your name tag.
Diva Las Vegas volunteers will be on site early at all of our major
activities and standing by to greet you. If for any reason you have any
difficulty locating the group, find a phone and give us a call. Contact
numbers will appear in the Final Attendee Information.
If you have any concerns about meeting the group or checking in, please
phone any of our contact people, whose phone numbers will be listed in
the Final Attendee Information.
We're asking all first-time attendees to make every effort to attend the
New Attendee Welcome and Orientation on Monday afternoon of DLV week at
5:00pm. This will be held in the same location as our Monday Welcome
Celebration. See Final Attendee Information for exact location and
directions.

Early birds:
For those of you who will be in Las Vegas on Saturday, March 29, please
join us for an informal get-together Saturday evening at Satay Thai
Bistro and Bar at 3900 Paradise Road.
Satay is located on the east side of Paradise Road, north of Flamingo,
and about midway between Flamingo and Sands/Twain. This is a very easy
drive or inexpensive taxi ride from any of our suggested hotels and most
other popular area hotels. It's very visible from the street. Plenty of
parking is available in the complex.
Satay is known to be TG-friendly, as we've used it for dining and happy
hour activities in the past.
This will be an informal gathering for drinks, socializing, and optional
dining. Meet in the main bar area. We'll have a drink and a chat, get to
know each other, and anticipate the week to come.
THIS ACTIVITY WILL NOT APPEAR ON THE MAIN SCHEDULE.
No official start time. DLV folks are expected to start arriving between
5:00pm and 6:00pm. One DLV representative has promised to be on site
before 5:00pm, so there will be no concern about arriving and being the
only one! No sign-up, just show up. Boymode or girlmode, casual to
dressy. Mainstream dress, please, no costumes, clubwear, or
slutty/fetish outfits.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Automated activity reminders:
This was something new for DLV 2013, and it's still considered to be in
"beta test" for DLV 2015, although it performed quite well for 2014.
We have methods in place to send reminders (15 minutes to two hours,
your choice) to your e-mail or text-capable cell phones for the DLV
activities you select.
You can set these up from your main on screen. Use the link
sent to you to update your registration. You should have received this
very shortly after you registered. The button to set up activity
reminders will be toward the lower right. If you've lost or misplaced
this link, just write in and we will resend it to you.
Do we have your attention? If so, Easter Egg #4 is: Kenny Kerr.
An instructional walk-through on setting up reminders is on line
here:
http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/dlv2013/remtut/index.html
Please give this a try and let us know how it works. Please let us know
of any difficulties or concerns you have about it.
