Org List:

This is the DLV 2010 Organizational Mailing List (dlvorg@geekbabe.com)
Replies to this message will be forwarded to the DLVORG list and not
the DLV-Announce or DLV-Discuss list.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Volunteer status:

First and foremost ...

Please read this and consider carefully:

For several list cycles we've called for volunteers for a
few specific functions, such as:

1. Hostess for Metropolitan Community Church on Sunday.

2. 1-2 more dining venues for Tuesday (or for other
multi-track timeslots pending some adjustments).

3. Hostess for a local HH and dinner on Thursday.

None of these need to be "high-maintenance" coordination
jobs, and most can be one notch above trivial to do.

I'm not going to hard-@$$ those who are already doing multiple
things to take on additional items. I don't want to burn out
any volunteers, and I want all volunteers to be able to enjoy
their vacation as well.

I was planning to assertively twist arms of those who are on
this list but have not volunteered to do anything yet. Well,
I'm not going to do this. As I said recently to another group,
"volunteering needs to be voluntary", so if someone really
does not want to help out, we'll have to accept it.

We also may have to accept that we're perhaps approaching
something like a saturation point, where we are close to
exhausting the capacity of our active volunteers.

Here's what I'm going to do. We'll let this go for one more
list cycle, which should run to the beginning or middle of
next week, and if we don't have a few additional people step
forward, I'm going to make a "Call For (additional) Volunteers"
in the general mailing to the DLV audience as a whole.

It would be GREAT if we have people step forward for this
prior to activity sign-up time, as we can then get you at
least a rough headcount.

Any activities added after the sign-up start will need to be
on a "no sign-up, just show up" basis.

Is is very obvious that we will have a record or near-record
turnout this year. We're also taking steps to increase the
level of participation this year, so I think it is very
important that we cover these and any other weak spots!

Thanks for your consideration to this.

We now return you to your regular program. :)
. . . . . . . . . .

About capacity and turnout:

As of Thursday morning we have 197 validated attendees and
a turnout projection of 159. These numbers appear to be
converging in the 225-ish and 185-ish range, possibly larger
but depending on the degree of fallout due to non-response
to activity sign-up.

A real-life turnout of 200 is within striking distance!

As I've commented on an item of concern below, some of you
may be tempted to move one of your activities into what
appears to be a less-congested timeslot in order to bump
up your turnout.

I really don't think there's anyone who needs to be concerned
that their turnout will be spoiled by another concurrent
activity. We're going to have a dynamite turnout and I doubt
that any activities will be hurting for participants.

I just reviewed the schedule again, looking in particular
at multi-track timeslots, and I really believe that in all
cases, the options are different enough to appeal to
participants of different interests. I'm very confident
that there will be enough people to give us a good turnout
at almost everything this year.

Major gatherings:

No objections or comments for Firefly for our opener. Marisa,
please finalize things. Let's consider this one solid.
. . . . .

Some commentary about Bahama Breeze below. Alanna (Susan),
please prepare to finalize things after one more list cycle,
most likely early/mid next week pending the outcome of
said discussion.

If there are any further comments, concerns, or alternate
suggestions regarding the Friday closing at Bahama Breeze,
please get these in by this weekend, as we need to lock
down plans for the final evening ASAP!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Laundry list:

You will see this is quite a bit shorter. Big thanks to
those who cleared some major items from this list.

We would appreciate an update on a few items here.

Also, we would appreciate volunteers for a few "orphan"
activities which need to be adopted.
. . . . . . . . . .

Aiko? Kumiko?

Can you please confirm the time for assembly for NSD?

I have 5:00pm on the schedule. If this needs to be changed,
please let me know.
. . . . .

Edy?

Please see the note of concern about the Winery Dinner WRT
NSD below. Please let me know what to do.
. . . . .

Mindy or anyone who knows?

Sorry to keep bugging you with golf questions. :)

There was a note last year that said adult beverages may
not be available on the course. Do you (or anyone) know
for sure if this will be the case this year? If so, I
want to note it in the final schedule.
. . . . .

Holly?

Hotel Hostess Program? Is this on track?

Anything you need to help with this?
. . . . .

Cynthia?

Have you decided on an exact rendezvous point in the IP for
the Thrift Shop Tour? There will be no public "desk" for the
Hotel Hostesses, so I suggest that you pick some kind of
landmark which is incredibly obvious for a rendezvous
location.
. . . . .

Marilyn? Danielle?

Payment instructions for the High Tea?
. . . . . . . . . .

Volunteers needed:

As previously discussed ...

+ 11:00am: Religious services (Metropolitan Community Church) - sv

We still need a host or hostess if this is to stay on the
schedule. This is an easy one, all you have to do is agree
to be there. Very easy ticket to voting status!

Last call for this group here. I really find it hard to
believe that nobody in this group is planning to go to
this.
. . . . .

I think we need at least one, more comfortably two dining
options on Tuesday. Please keep in mind that we are expecting
a close-to-record total turnout this year, and we need the
combined capacity on our multi-track evenings.

Gina? Other Charles fans? Famous Dave's with Stacie?

It doesn't have to be fancy, it can be loosely organized,
and no cold calling is required. Just name a place and
agree to be there to welcome the others.

This does qualify you for voting status, and is an easy
first activity for new volunteers.
. . .
 
+Thursday, April 22:

I do think that we still need some kind of a local dining
option, plain or fancy, opposite NSD, prior to the Pity
Party. I know that both venues being discussed for the
Pity Party do not serve food.

Pity Party, Jam Session, Irish Pub, BB:

Sorry for throwing you a curve. I filled in the schedule as
best I could from what I anticipated as the most likely plans.

Anything can be changed, and now is the time to change things
if they are to be changed.

I have Mindy down for the primary coordinator of the Pity Party
with you as the local go-to person. Vice versa for the Jam
Session, you taking the lead and Mindy in second chair. If
this should be changed, let us know.

>As I'm sure you know, some of the org mailings can be long-winded.

I don't think you missed anything. I don't consider the current
working schedule to be in stone at all.

Thanks, Susan. Please continue. Keep us in the loop on anything
major, and let me know what changes need to go into the schedule.

>I need to know what you all want.

What the consensus appeared to favor was a combined or
sequential Pity Party and Jam Session, with the Escape
Lounge as first choice for venue. Preferred timeslot,
Thursday evening.

The timing is your baby. Just let me know what to change. If
you want the two activities to be joined into some kind of a
"Showcase Cabaret" or something, let me know. It's all just a
few mouse clicks to do.

>I got the impression from the manager that he is concerned that

>only on Tuesday.

Changing the day may be an issue, particularly trying to
change it to Tuesday.

Tuesday after dinner is really the only timeslot where I
don't think anything more of major significance will fit.

If you move the PP/Jam to Tuesday, it will be up against the
Alternative Bar Crawl, Level 107 Lounge, Roller Derby Boot
Camp, Viva Elvis, and the Frank Marino Show all in the same
timeslot. These are all smaller activities, but when combined
they draw a good percentage of our people.

On Thursday, you're up against NSD (limit of 40-some) and
RDBC (est. maybe 10-15 max) so you'll have a much better
pool of potential participants on Thursday.

Also, if the PP/Jam gets moved from Thursday, it leaves a
very big hole on Thursday to be filled.

My suggestion is to continue to negotiate for Thursday and
limit the participation to a number that the management of
Escape is comfortable serving.

>I will arrange it with him as I feel him out at the meeting.
>But I need some imput from you ladies. Does the Pity Party

>Can we handle that ourselves?

I seem to recall that somebody was doing sound and lights
at the Escape the last time the PP was there, but I don't
remember if it was one of the Escape people or one of our
people.

I'm sure we could get a qualified volunteer to spin knobs,
but that may or may not be allowed. Some venues are very
touchy about who jumps in the booth and drives. Others
welcome the clients to provide their sound/light people.

>Session/Showcase. I will arrange the time for the Pity

It's my impression that Mindy, who has the Pity Party
experience, will be doing the bulk of the actual work
in getting the performance aspect of the Pity Party
organized. All you'll probably be asked to do is firm
up the venue.

>If we separate them, I and some of my friends love doing

I suggest you keep things together unless there are some
difficult issue to work out. I think the Jam Session
could work on Tuesday (and if at Goodtimes, that's one
stop on the Bar Crawl), and that the Pity Party could
work as a stand-alone activity on Thursday, giving a
quality general-interest in-town option opposite NSD.

>I hope to have everything finalized no later that Monday.

Thanks, Susan. Please let us know how to adjust things,
should they need to be adjusted.
. . . . . . . . . . .

>I feel that scheduling the HRC dinner and postprandial
>event has blown my Irish Pub dinner out of the water.
>Pending the scheduling of the Pity Party/Jam Session,
>I may suggest moving it to Tuesday or Thursday.

I really don't think that there will be a conflict here
since none of the dining options for Sunday are expected
to draw any kind of major crowd.

I also see hanging out at McMullans after dinner to be of
interest to those who want something mainstream, but
something not as loud. If you think it would help your
turnout, we can make another schedule item at 8:30 for
an "Irish Pub Common Gathering" or something like that.

I really think that the way the Sunday schedule sits, it's
balanced and right-sized.

There is room for one more, possibly two dining options
for Tuesday, but the after dinner timeslot is quite full
and I think that anything else in there would start to
dilute the pool of attendees.

We do need at least one more dining option for Tuesday,
so if you want to move McMullans, say so, as we would
basically be shifting the "hole" to Sunday. (Which we
would then need to fill, as we currently need to do for
Tuesday dinner time.)

Another hole that needs to be filled is for a local HH
and dinner on Thursday. McMullans would work for that,
but again, we're shifting the hole.

What I REALLY want to avoid, however, is any chain-reaction
mass-reshuffling of activities and timeslots this late in
the process.
. . . . . . . . . . .

>Regarding the final night at Bahama Breeze. As a relative newby

I wouldn't say there is a lot of opposition, just that there
is not any significant degree of enthusiasm for it. I haven't
seen any of our cheerleaders jumping up and down chanting
"Bahama Breeze, Bahama Breeze" and such! :)

>even though it is the obvious solution to Friday. Just a wild

The concensus was, when we went over the high-level strategy
for DLV 2010, that we wanted a larger single-track ending
get-together of some sort on the final evening.

I also think that two multi-track evenings, with no single
activity being more featured than the other(s) is the right
size for that type of thing.

As of now, we have two multi-track evenings, two major
gathering evenings, and two feature activity evenings with
alternate track options.

We really don't want you, or anyone else who is signed up
to do multiple things to take on more. What we really need
is for those who are doing nothing to step forward and
volunteer to do something, such as a simple meal or MCC.

Doing Firefly on Friday would be a triplication, since it's
being used twice, Monday and Wednesday. Besides, Marisa has
expressed concern about the after-work crowd which hangs out
at the Firefly Paradise location, particularly on Fridays.

Nothing is in stone yet for Friday, but if changes are to
be made, explicit plans, including volunteers, need to be
on the table now if not sooner. :)

Limo Tour, M Resort, and a HRC comment:

Several responses in this one item here.

First on the Limo Tour itself ...

We now have four additional volunteers, Mary Beth, Marcia,
Vanessa, and Vivian. Thanks to all.

Mary Beth and Marcia will be the two primary volunteers, and
Vanessa and Vivian will be "standby" and "in training" for
the 2010 tour. All will get credit for assisting.

In looking forward, we want to groom one or more of our Limo
Tour volunteers for more of a leadership role in the Tour
in the coming years. We'll continue this discussion on the
Limo Tour list.

All of you can expect a test message on our Limo Tour mailing
list shortly.

As to what to do, check with me and/or JoAnn in real time
toward the beginning of DLV.

Sorry if this is not what you want to hear, but I checked
with the "boss" (JoAnn) and we're in agreement that this is
simply not workable. We don't have the time to do it within
the planned schedule, and we don't want to push the limit of
affordability with the extra cost which would be required
to make this happen.

Another principle this year is that we need to stick to the
format and stops which we know work well. We tried a few
things new and different last year and they caused quite a
bit of b*tching. :(

Yes, HRC is right next door! This would explain the sudden
price boost over the already agreed upon price. It still
does not make it ethical to fail to honor the terms of an
agreement made by a former staff member. :(

Thanks, Mindy. I will state that those unable to use Paypal
for whatever reason need to contact you.

I'll put in some kind of appropriately-worded admonition
that this will be done only under extenuating circumstances.

No problem. I just wanted to clarify this prior to sign-up

Aria concern:

Cathy writes:

>Annie, have you had any reoprts yet of how we are received
>at the new ARIA resort and the City Center?

Not really.

I visited it when it was partly open, played a bit in the
casino (did not do well at all) and wandered around a bit.

My impression was that it's very large and somewhat odd
and confusing in layout.

>Veronica and I were planning to stay there and wanted to
>make sure we didn't get a cold shoulder reception.

Well, it's an MGM property, same ownership and management
as Bellagio, Mirage, Monte Carlo, et. al. Most likely if
you pay your bill and don't trash the place, you will be
fine. :)

We're planning for two DLV activities on the property, one
session of the Art Tour and Viva Elvis for Theater Night
on Tuesday.

NSD info:

Kumiko writes (first-person, no quoting):

Here's the information for Night of the Soiled Doves 2010.

The coordinator for Night Of The Soiled Doves 2010 is Amy,
the owner of Just You, Home of Glamour Boutique.

Amy is also the coordinator for the DLV 2010 pins.

NSD 2010 will be limited to the first 46 sign-ups, with a
waiting list starting after #46.

New this year:

Amy is coordinating buses as transportation from Just You to
CR. The cost of the transportation will be included in the
fees associated with NSD 2010. The NSD fee will also include
food that will be served on the bus. No food will be served
at CR this year.

The NSD 2010 fee is $65. This fee is firm and includes
transportation to CR and back to JY, a meal while
enroute to CR, the DLV 2010 event pin, and admission
to CR.

Again, as in the past, drinks may be purchased at the CR bar.

As in the past, a 2010 DLV event pin will be needed for
admission to CR. The pins may be purchased at Just You,
Home of Glamour Boutique beginning Monday, April 19th.

Pins must be purchased prior to noon on Wednesday, April
21st. After noon, the list will open to those on the
waiting list.

Amy accepts major credit cards.

Pre-payment for NSD 2010 may be made by calling Amy at
702-697-1800 or Toll Free: 866-692-1800.

Or, you can e-mail to: GB2Amy@aol.com

This year's social time and parlor game time should be quite
interesting. Amy has devised some new inter-action games with
the CR ladies. This should be a very fun activity. Probably
more toward - hilarious. :)

Any questions - please e-mail or call Amy.
. . . . .

Thanks, Kumiko. I'll get this on the sign-up screen.

I have one significant concern regarding the price point
and the logistics. I'll speak very freely. I think $65 is
too much! As I told Aiko last year, I thought $40 was
on the edge, but when she outlined the cost breakdown to
me I was convinced that it was appropriate.

My intuition says that the $65 price point will affect your
turnout.

I realize that the transportation is bundled in there, but
I'm sure that some will be disappointed in this, as they
usually hire a limo or sometimes drive a more exotic
vehicle.

This also essentially puts the kabosh on Edy's planned
Pre-NSD dinner at the Winery.

Edy, do you want to scratch that? Your call.

Sorry if this is not what you want to hear, but I think
the "price creep" on this one could spoil it, and I would
really hate for that to happen for such a unique activity.

I'm in!

I think this is a great idea. I expect that the gang will
start to break up about that time and some will spill out
onto Fremont St. This would be a perfect continuation of
the evening.

I probably won't take the mike, but I'll hang out and
watch. :)

>I've been there a couple of times and the crowd is very

I see two ways of handling this, and since you brought it
up, we'll let you make a "command decision" here.

We could either simply announce this off-schedule, not
considering it to be an official DLV activity, or we could
place it on the schedule. If we put it on the schedule, we
do need to be sure that we have a hostess (such as MB)
who will be there to welcome the others.

Needless to say, you'll get a better turnout if it's on
the schedule.

This will be your call. Please let me know.

>http://beautybar.com/lv/home.html

>This plan could work out nicely, actually.

Yes, I agree. I think it will attract a number of our
people. Thanks!
