Welcome and updates:

Welcome to those who recently joined our mailing list. Glad to have you
with us!

Most of this mailing consists of follow-up items on our 2019 event which
has recently concluded.

Our next regular DLV event will not happen until next spring, but if you
are looking for something similar which happens sooner, check out the
notice for Pinkfest 2019 below.

Last call for DLV 2019 survey:

If you attended DLV 2019, we want your feedback, both good and bad!

If you attended and have not yet taken our 2019 follow-up survey,
please do so, as it closes this coming Wednesday. It's on line here:

https://divalas.vegas/2019survey.html

If you have already taken the survey but wish to add additional comments
and suggestions, please go to the above URL, leave all of the check
boxes blank, scroll down to the comment areas, and submit an additional
comment-only survey response.

DLV 2019 photos:

Everyone who attended who was marked "present" should have now received
their link to the DLV 2019 photo staging area.

If you attended DLV 2019 and did not receive this, please write in (just
reply to this mailing) and explain the circumstances.

Each year, we place the DLV 2019 photos in a special staging area and
allow those who attended to preview them and optionally remove any
photos in which they personally appear, prior to making up the final
DLV follow-up pages.

We will keep the staging area open for review until July 1.
. . . . .

Call For Photos continues:

We're asking those who attended and took photos to please submit them
for our collection. The Call For Photos is open now and will remain open
through the month of May.

We are fortunate to have the largest and most complete collection of
photos of any of the major TG events, reflecting all of our first 22
years!

There are several ways you can submit the photos:

1. Re-visit your Attendee Information Portal. (This is the link that
you received shortly after you registered.) You will now see the
"Upload Photos" option. Click on the button and select the photos on
your computer to upload. With most browsers you can upload multiple
photos in one action.

2. E-mail. Simply attach your photos (any reasonable number to one or
more messages) and e-mail to: dlv@divalas.vegas

3. FTP. If you wish to use this method, write in and we'll give you the
login credentials.

4. Snailmail. You can send prints, a CD/DVD, a USB stick, or whatever.
If you want to do this, write in, we'll send you the snailmail address.
. . . . .

If you have any difficulty submitting your photos, or if you just need
some coaching in order to do it, write to: tech@divalas.vegas (or just
reply to this mailing) and we will help you get your photos submitted.
. . . . .

Big thanks to all who have submitted photos of our 2019 event!

Call For Volunteers:

All of those great times you just had were made possible because
somebody stepped forward and made those activities happen!

Planning and organization of DLV is done mostly on line via e-mail. It's
interactive and participatory. Volunteers form what we call the DLVORG
group.

We will be starting up the 2019-2020 volunteer group shortly.

The DLVORG group is not at all closed or exclusive. With very rare
exception, it's open to anybody who expresses interest in helping out
with DLV.

DLVORG people participate at the decision-making level, the organizing
and planning level, and at the nuts-and-bolts level.

All of the activities that happened at DLV 2019 were "adopted" by one or
more of our volunteers, who took the necessary steps to make them
happen.

If you want to do your part to make a great thing even better, to give
back what DLV has given to you, and help to run an event that has
literally changed lives, please step forward!

(Those of you who filled out the volunteer form as part of the DLV
follow-up survey do not need to take any more action.)

To volunteer, please do one of the following:

Visit the URL:

https://divalas.vegas/dlvvol1.html

Fill out the screen and check a few things, click SUBMIT, and you're on
your way!

Alternatively, simply send a brief e-mail message to dlvorg@divalas.vegas
and state you wish to volunteer. (Or, just reply to this mailing and
state that you wish to volunteer.)

Please rate our vendors:

If you enjoyed your experience with our venues and vendors, please let
everyone know! If you thought any vendor's service was lacking, please
let everyone know too.

Please take a few minutes to visit our "BIG LIST" here"

https://divalas.vegas/vendors/

Our Big List is our most "hit on" web page, and many who attended
our events first found out about us by hitting our Big List after
searching for TG Friendly merchants and vendors in the LV area.

All of the new venues we used for DLV 2019 should now appear on the
list. If you wish to add any additional vendors, please use the
appropriate link at the above URL.

Also, if you notice any errors on the Big List, such as a facility which
has closed, moved, or has been renamed, please call it to our attention
by leaving a comment under that particular vendor.

Pinkfest 2019 in September:

Pinkfest, which has often been described as a mini spin-off of DLV, will
happen in Chicago from Tuesday, September 24 through Sunday, September
29, 2019.

Pinkfest is smaller and more informal than DLV but is likewise a
"vacation not a convention" and is very enjoyable.

Pinkfest information appears on line here:

https://pinkfest.lgbt/ (No "www", no ".com", just pinkfest.lgbt)

If you're interested in attending, please join our spam-free mailing
list by writing: pinkfest@pinkfest.lgbt

If you have any questions about Pinkfest, you can ask by mailing to the
above address or posting in the Pinkfest Discussion Forum at

viewforum.php?f=13

Hope to see everyone in September!
