Welcome and updates:

Diva Las Vegas 2014 is just three weeks away!

If you've just registered or just joined our list, welcome!

Our volunteers are very busy putting the final touches on our schedule,
of activities, which is very impressive this year!
. . . . . . . . . .

To clear up a few recent misunderstood items, no, You have not missed
anything. None of our activities are "full" yet. Activity sign-up will
happen this coming week. See item below.

Our Fantasy Ball is definitely a "go" for this year on Thursday. There
was a facility closure that had this in jeopardy for a while, but our
volunteers found a bigger and better location and there is no price
increase and reasonable drink prices!
. . . . . . . . . .

Attention Yahoo users:

Please be sure to report things like "empty" mailings from us or
expected e-mail items which do not arrive! This is extremely important
with such things a the registration confirmation e-mail and the activity
sign-up e-mail discussed below.
. . . . . . . . . .

Latest numbers:

As of Friday evening we have a validated sign-up count of 179, which
includes 28 SOs. The best guess for a final show-up count is in the
170-180 range. We'll have counts which are more accurate once activity
sign-up gets underway. We have people from all over the States, several
from Canada, from Mexico, the UK, Australia and New Zealand this year!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Activity sign-up:

This is a very important milestone on the road to our event which will
occur this coming week.

We have over 80 activities making up our event this year! This is a
record number, even more than during the years when DLV was a seven-day
event.

A number of people have replied to our Activity Highlights saying such
things as "count me in", "I'll be there", etc. It's all fine and dandy
to do that, but our official activity sign-up is the one that counts!

Here's how activity sign-up works.

Most of our activities require no formality to attend, other than being
a registered DLV 2014 participant. All you have to do is to show up at
the designated place and time. We will be expecting you.

Many of the activities, however, do require some kind of a sign-up,
headcount, perhaps a pre-payment in some cases, or maybe some kind of
additional action required, such as a ticket purchase.

We take care of all of these at activity sign-up time.

Activity sign-up for DLV 2014 will begin early next week. At this time,
you will receive your personalized activity sign-up e-mail. Please be
expecting this and watch for it around March 10-11 or so.

The e-mail you will receive contain a link to your own personal activity
sign-up screen. It's on this screen where you tell us which of the
optional activities you want to do. Just fill in a few blanks, click a
few buttons, and you're on your way.

In most cases you can change your mind and change your selections at any
time before the designated deadlines.

One very important thing about activity sign-up is that if you are
registered to attend DLV and do NOT receive your activity sign-up
e-mail, SOMETHING IS WRONG AND WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT!

If you are registered for DLV 2014 and you don't receive your activity
sign-up e-mail by Wednesday, March 12, at the very latest, be sure to
let us know!

Alternately, you can sign up for optional activities using the "Activity
Sign-up" button on your registration page. This should be live now.

Most MyDLV members can sign up for activities using the appropriate
button on the main MyDLV screen.

If there are any questions or concerns about activity sign-up, please
let us know.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
What you need to do:

If you are new and wish to attend, here's a run-down of the steps
you will need to take in order to participate.
. . . . . . . . . .

If you are starting out from a cold start:

First, please read our web site. Know exactly what kind of event we are.
No, we're not based on the same model that's used for most of the other
TG events. This is a major misunderstanding reported by many new
attendees.

We're on the web here:

http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/

Please pay particular attention to the Introduction, About Us, and
Frequently Asked Questions sections.

When you've decided that you want to attend DLV 2014, you will need to
register. You can register on line by following the "Register" button
on the web page above.

One important note about registration. Shortly after you register you
should receive a confirming e-mail. If you don't receive this,
SOMETHING IS WRONG AND WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT!

If you receive absolutely nothing vi e-mail after you register, be
sure to let us know!
. . . . . . . . . .

You'll then need to make your travel and lodging arrangements, if you
need those services. Prices are rising and hotels are filling up fast.

Information on our suggested hotels can be obtained by clicking the
"Hotels" button on our web site. Rates are reported to be rising for our
suggested hotels, so if you need additional suggestions, use our Big
List, which contains several TG-friendly casino-hotels and non-gaming
hotels. The Big List is on the web here:

http://www.geekbabe.com/dlv/vendors/

After you've registered, signed up for activities, and made all of your
arrangements, all you need to do is decide what to bring, pack, and show
up! :) We will be expecting you! :)

Big Sister Volunteers needed:

As many of you are aware, DLV has long had an active Big Sister program,
designed to allow more experienced girls to help those who have been
less active in public venues. It is a valuable program, as many newer
girls will not fully enjoy the Las Vegas experience, or in some cases,
may not wish to attend without someone to act as a lifeline.

Currently, we are a bit short of volunteers to act as Big Sisters. It is
an opportunity for each of us to give back to the community, as well as
have the self satisfaction of knowing you have helped another girl have
a wonderful Las Vegas vacation, as well as bringing them further along
the road towards gender presentation independence.

If interested, please take a moment to sign up by filling out the Big
Sister volunteer form on the registration page. (Use the link that was
sent to you right after you registered. If you have misplaced this,
please write in and we will re-send to you.) Someone who needs the
assistance will appreciate it, and you will likely find it to be
personally very rewarding.
