Call For Photos ends next week:

Our Call For Photos closes at the end of May. If you have photos which
you need to send in, please do so ASAP so we can get things going and
get the follow-up pages composed a bit sooner this year.

Your Attendee Information Portal now has a button to upload multiple
photos, and there are several other ways you can send them in. Just
attach them to an email (dlv@divalas.vegas) or just reply to this
mailing and attach them.

You can also use FTP or snailmail. Write in if you want to use either to
get the necessary information.

Everyone who attended this year's event should have received the link to
the photo staging area. In the event you did not, please let us know
ASAP.

Please be sure to "like" the photos that you think should be included in
the final DLV 2017 follow-up pages. One of the most difficult jobs there
is in making up the pages is to decide which of two or more of the many
near-duplicates should be used. You can help us out quite a bit by
like-ing the ones you like more.

As for marking photos for removal, please be sure to follow our "rule"
and remove ONLY the photos in which YOU PERSONALLY APPEAR. Your
cooperation is appreciated.

The photo staging area will remain on line through the month of June.

DLV 2017 follow-up survey results:

Thanks to all who participated in our 2017 follow-up survey.

The DLV 2017 follow-up survey is complete and the scores are
exceptional! Higher than any other recent year.

You are, of course, welcome to comment on the survey and the comments on
the Discussion Forum.

No activity scored less than 4.0 on the enjoyment scale.

The majority of the activities we tracked this year fell into the 4.5 to
4.99 range! To reach that level, the number of "Enjoyed Significantly"
and "Enjoyed" ratings for an activity needed to exceed the number of all
lesser categories.

The survey reports are on line here:

Volunteers:

First of all, we wish to thank all who worked on DLV 2017 for their
efforts in producing a very successful and highly-enjoyed event!

Diva Las Vegas runs entirely on volunteer help!

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 2017-2018 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 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:

http://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 include a sentence or two stating how you are most interested in
helping out. Anything general or specific ("I wanna plan a sky-diving
party.", or "I'll help any way I can.") is perfectly fine. Anything from
one sentence to a book length manuscript will be ok. :)

We're not asking for any kind of a major time or effort commitment on
your part. All we ask is that each volunteer organize, or assist with
one activity. That's it.

If you're a bit shy, that's fine. We'll find something for you where you
don't have to go cold-calling vendors or anything like that.

And yes, out-of-the-box thinking is encouraged! As you know, we're not
limited to the things that traditionally happen at TG events, and we're
certainly not limited to those which have already happened at DLV.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Pinkfest in September:

Yes, Pinkfest happens a bit earlier this year!

One year is too long to wait for another DLV!

Pinkfest 2017 will run from Tuesday, September 26 thru Sunday, October
first.

For those who don't know about Pinkfest, it's a "Vacation, not a
convention" which occurs each fall in Chicago. It's often been described
as a "mini spin-off of DLV" although the two events are organizationally
independent.

If you've attended DLV recently, you're sure to see familiar faces at
this year's Pinkfest.

For further information on Pinkfest, please visit this URL:

Hope to see you in Chicago this September! :)
