This is the DLV 2017 Organizational Mailing List (dlvorg_at_divalas.vegas)
Replies to this message will be forwarded to the DLVORG list and not

Where things stand:

This mailing was somewhat delayed in order to let a few things get
settled. We'll (try to) get back to the usual schedule next week.

The big news this week is that we broke the coveted 100 mark! It's still
too early for any kind of final projection, however. Registrations come
in spurts, but have been averaging about one per day this week.

Thanks to all who have volunteered! We're moving along nicely and have
most of our bases covered. There are, however, some needs which we will
discuss in the schedule review below.

All, please look over the revised schedule very closely. Again, many
additions and changes have been made since the last mailing.

We've had some email delays and failures sending to various addresses in
the aol.com, aim.com, and cs.com domains. We've resent (with success)
those that could be identified, but if you use any of those domains, it
might be good to check the list archives (below) to be sure you're not
missing anything.

We also had one report of a registration issue, issues when associating
a registration with a MyDLV account. This has been corrected.

Schedule review:

Annie writes:

If you have not already volunteered to coordinate something, please
consider volunteering to fill some of these needs. Almost all activities
which require heavy-lifting "real work" are already covered.

Let's go over things day by day:

+Sunday, March 26:
+ 11:00am: (hourly) Bare Minerals Makeup Sessions (Fashion Show Mall) - ms
+ 12:00n: Lunch Without Ginger (Flamingo Buffet) - ms
+ 3:00pm: On-site DLV Check-in (Flamingo) - ms
+ 6:00pm: Downtown Happy Hour Options (Various) - ms
+ 6:00pm: Denny's Happy Hour option (Denny's Neonopolis) - ms
+ 7:00pm: Downtown Dining Options (Various) - ms
+ 7:00pm: Denny's Dining option (Denny's Neonopolis) - ms
+ 8:30pm: Fremont Street Experience (Fremont Street Experience) - ms
+ 10:30pm: Late Night Dancing (Fremont Street Experience) - ms

One of our major needs is for a few more dining and activity options on
Sunday. There's one very iffy HH/dining option which may or may not
happen in addition to Denny's, and we will need at least a couple more
for Sunday.
. . . . .

+Monday, March 27:
+ 11:00am: (hourly) Bare Minerals Makeup Sessions (Fashion Show Mall) - ms
+ 12:00n: Lunch With Aejaie (TBD) - ms
+ 3:00pm: On-site DLV Check-in (Flamingo) - ms
+ 5:00pm: New Attendee Welcome and Orientation (Bahama Breeze) - mv
+ 6:00pm: Happy Hour (Bahama Breeze) - mv
+ 7:00pm: Welcome Dinner (Bahama Breeze) - mv
+ 8:30pm: Meet And Greet (Bahama Breeze) - mv
+ 9:00pm: Official Group Photo (Bahama Breeze) - mv
+ 10:30pm: Late Night Dancing (Paris - Le Cabaret) - ms

Monday morning and early afternoon are wide open for any various smaller
activities that anyone would like to plan. Monday evening is solid.
. . . . .

+Tuesday, March 28:
+ 8:00am: Katie's Kozy Koffee Korner (Flamingo - Club Cappucino) - ms
+ 9:00am: Diva Las Vegas Invitational Golf (Wildhorse Golf Club) - ms
+ 10:30am: TG Tuesday - Social at The Center (The Center) - sv
+ 11:00am: (hourly) Bare Minerals Makeup Sessions (FLW Home and Studio) - ms
+ 12:00n: Lunch Without Ginger (Flamingo Buffet) - ms
+ 1:00pm: Love Ur Look Luncheon (Kona Grill Fashion Show Mall) - ms
+ 3:00pm: On-site DLV Check-in (Flamingo) - ms

+ 5:00pm: Hofbrauhaus Happy Hour (Hofbrauhaus) - ms
+ 5:00pm: Ricardo's Happy Hour (Ricardo's) - ms
+ 6:00pm: Eating Out Night (Various)
+ 6:00pm: Ricardo's dining option (Ricardo's) - ms
+ 6:00pm: Hofbrauhaus dining option (Hofbrauhaus) - ms
+ 6:00pm: Ruthis Chris dining option (Ruths Chris - Harrahs) - ms
+ 8:00pm: Erotic Heritage Museum (EHM) - mv
+ 10:30pm: Late Night Dancing (Paris - Le Cabaret) - ms

With the addition of EHM and the various dining options, Tuesday is
looking very good.

We do have room for a second-track option opposite EHM, but we do
understand if nobody wants to plan anything, as EHM does have very
significant drawing power.
. . . . .

+Wednesday, March 29:
+ 8:00am: Katie's Kozy Koffee Korner (Flamingo - Club Cappucino) - ms
+ 11:00am: (hourly) Bare Minerals Makeup Sessions (Fashion Show Mall) - ms

+ 3:00pm: On-site DLV Check-in (Flamingo) - ms
+ 3:00pm: Topgolf (Topgolf) - ms
+ 6:00pm: Trevi Happy Hour (Trevi - Caesars) - ms
+ 7:00pm: Trevi Dining (Trevi - Caesars) - ms
+ 9:00pm: Limousine Tour (Caesars Palace) - ms
+ 10:30pm: Late Night Dancing (Paris - Le Cabaret) - ms

On Thursday we have room for one ore more additional HH and dining
options opposite Trevi, and room for one or more additional track
activities opposite the Limo Tour.
. . . . .

+Thursday, March 30:
+ 8:00am: Katie's Kozy Koffee Korner (Flamingo - Club Cappucino) - ms
+ 9:00am: Pistol and rifle shooting (Discount Firearms) - ms

+ 3:00pm: On-site DLV Check-in (Flamingo) - ms
+ 6:00pm: Farewell Happy Hour (Off The Strip) - ms
+ 7:00pm: Farewell Dinner (Off The Strip) - ms
+ 8:30pm: Farewell Social (Off The Strip) - ms
+ 10:30pm: Late Night Dancing (Paris - Le Cabaret) - ms

Thursday is looking good, but we do have room for about anything in the
various morning and afternoon timeslots.
. . . . .

+Friday, March 31:
+ 11:00am: (hourly) Bare Minerals Makeup Sessions (Fashion Show Mall) - ms
+ 12:00n: Lunch With Cami (Carnegie Deli - Mirage) - ms
+ 3:00pm: On-site DLV Check-in (Flamingo) - ms
+ 10:30pm: Late Night Dancing (Paris - Le Cabaret) - ms

Friday is our sore spot, unfortunately.

We'll need a few people to step forward to volunteer to host(ess) at
least a couple of dining options plus activity options for the evening.
Please be thinking of what you would like to do to help out here.

EHM:

Stacy writes:

I recently connected with Sherry about planning the EHM.

I also see that Tuesday night looks the best night for the event, so
I'll get in contact with them and keep the list up to date.

Let's do this!
. . . . . . . . . .

Annie responds:

Thanks Stacy and Sherry! :)

Yes, Tuesday would be fine for something like this.

Have you thought of any theme or entertainment? Costume contest?
Self-produced show? Fashion show?

I know that Vera was thinking about some kind of drag show. Maybe this
can be incorporated as a win-win.

If a Dr. Victoria session can be arranged, that would be super and be a
draw in itself.

11:00am (+hourly): Bare Minerals Makeovers (Bare Minerals, Fashion Show
Mall) - ms

Please make this change to the BM listings.thanks,Dionne
. . . . . . . . . .

We can put (hourly) in the description. That's probably the best way to
make this work. Thanks.

Activity Highlights and opening night:

Katie writes:

Isn't it about time that we posted the why, when and how's description
of individual events in MY DLV Discussion? We have 8+ weeks to go and
if people are like me they like to know what they are getting into when
planning a vacation.with regards to which events they would like to
attend and which to avoid.

If we are going to post the event guidelines please feel free to just
re-post the coffee gathering description which I sent in last year. I
have nothing new to add to it.
. . . . .

A suggestion for opening night.

Have each hostess and their assistant hostesses if you like come up to
the stage area where all can see who will be the contact person at a
specific event. The reason why I say this is because sitting in the
center of the room and just standing up and waving is not nearly as
effective as facing everyone.

Maybe a few will not want to do this but we could easily find that out
by asking the org in general ahead of time.

All I have to do now is get on a plane then step off a plane and I am
there.

See you all in a few weeks.
. . . . . . . . . .

Thanks, Katie.

Yes, it's time we get crackin' on Activity Highlights.

We do have one already in queue but we're waiting for confirmation that
it was intended to be posted as an Activity Highlight. (Anyone's ears
burning?) :) :) :)

We'll repost last year's Activity Highlight in your name again to start
off the Activity Highlights for this year.

We'll also announce the Activity Highlights in the general mailing
scheduled for next Saturday.

Dionne is in charge of the Welcome Celebration (Dionne, you takin'
notes?) so it will really be up to her if we do the activity
introductions or not, but I (Annie) think it's an idea that it well
worth doing. As you say, some may not want to do it, but I think quite a
few would be willing.
