• Those on waiting lists should consult the Waiting List Instructions for the particular activities in the notes on the final detailed schedule.

• Please make careful note of the exact times of such things as lunches, happy hours, dinners, etc., for the particular days you are interested in attending. Exceptions to our "standard times" for these activities occur frequently this year!

• A DLV name tag will be required for admission to the Erotic Heritage Museum on Wednesday evening. The museum will be closed to the public but open for registered DLV attendees. DLV check-in and name tags will be available at the EHM just prior to the activity.

For those of you who will be in Las Vegas on Saturday, April 13, please join us for an informal get-together Saturday evening at the Neonopolis Denny's at the intersection of Fremont Street and Las Vegas Boulevard in downtown Las Vegas.

Parking is available just north of Fremont Street on the east side of 4th. Street.

Meet the DLV group in the main bar area. No fixed start time but expect DLV folks to start arriving between 5:00pm and 6:00pm.

This activity and venue will be very "safe" for beginners.

This will be an informal gathering for drinks, socializing, and optional dining.

THIS ACTIVITY WILL NOT APPEAR ON THE MAIN SCHEDULE.

DLV folks are expected to start arriving between 5:00pm and 6:00pm. No sign-up, just show up. Boymode or girlmode, casual to dressy. Mainstream dress, please, no costumes, clubwear, or slutty/fetish outfits.

Advance forecast for Las Vegas for DLV week (subject to change at short notice):

Mostly fair, highs in the 80s, lows in the 60s, 1-5% or so chance of rain, possibly breezy at times. (Pack an umbrella. It doesn't rain that often in Las Vegas, but when it does it POURS!)

• Legislation signed into law last year prohibits the use of hand-held cell phones and hand-held texting devices when operating a motor vehicle.

• Recent Legislation prohibits, among other things, discrimination in the area of public accommodations with regard to gender identity or expression. As of this writing, it is unclear what effects, if any, this legislation will have on the use of gender-designated restrooms in the Las Vegas area. Until an authoritative legal opinion on this topic emerges, it is strongly suggested that all DLV attendees follow our long-standing Behavior, Dress, and Restroom guidelines.

• DUI checkpoints have been reported, sporadically but consistently, around the Las Vegas metro area. Recently-reported locations include Flamingo Road and Decatur, along Boulder Highway between Sahara and Flamingo, eastbound Tropicana just east of the Strip, Valley View and Desert Inn Road, Rainbow and Blue Diamond Road, and eastbound Flamingo between Koval and Paradise. Watch it!

• Summons' for pedestrian infractions such as jaywalking and walking against signals have been reported in the downtown and Four Corners (Flamingo-Strip) areas. Reported fines are in the $100.00-ish range.

• Bike officers have been citing motorists who run a "stale yellow" northbound on Las Vegas Boulevard (Strip) at Flamingo. The officers are not visible south of the intersection.

We have a number of activities this year happening in venues which have confusingly similar names or multiple locations throughout the Las Vegas area.

Here's a summary of those activities happening in locations which may be easily confused:

• Bare Escentuals [sic] is the correct name and spelling of the shop in the Fashion Show Mall which hosts our makeover sessions on Monday. The name is very similar to another firm, to which it has no connection.

• There are multiple Macy's branded stores in the area. The one we will use for the makover sessions is the one in the Fashion Show Mall on the Strip.

  There are two Hard Rock Cafes in the Las Vegas area. The one we will be using is the one on the corner of Harmon Avenue and Paradise Road.

• There are numerous PT's Pub locations in the area. The one we will be using will be the 532 East Sahara location. This is NOT, the same PT's Pub used in 2012!
