Friday and Saturday Rates will be: $85.00 per day and weekday rates at $38.00 per day for those who want to come early or stay late. There is also a room tax of 12% and a Resort fee of $5.00 so those that wish to stay/arrive a day early/late will pay $247.96. There are suites and penthouse suites available at this time with a reduced rate. When reserving your room ask for pricing on any upgrade you may desire. Since the room rate is based upon double occupancy, you have your choice of a king size bed or two queen size beds. I would suggest that you visit their site on line to see the amenities offered. http://www.orleanscasino.com/
For those participants whose significant others do not participate in the parties and cruises, there is free shuttle transportation from the Orleans to most spots on the strip. Saturday evening to the Hofbrau House transportation will be provided from the Orleans and back again by the Orleans shuttle service.

RAFFLE FOR GOODIES
(during & after lunch)
TRADITIONAL GET TOGETHER AT THE HOFFBRAU HOUSE
8pm until 11pm:
A No Host Dinner is served and prices range from $10.00 and up for traditional German faire and the beer flows at all times. A German band plays and the noise, laughing and crying from the group almost drowns out the band. If you remember in years past, parking is a problem at the Hoffbrau House so this year there will be two easy alternative ways offered to get to the Hoffbrau House. A free shuttle service will be offered by the Orleans to and from the location (tip extra). Again this year there will be Limo Service available from the Orleans to the Hoffbrau house and back again. The limo service will be $30.00 per person if paid in advance and $35.00 (tip included) after May 1,2011. There is a limit of 20 persons for the limo service. You can prepay with PayPal www.WhatHappensInVegasMeet.com
SUNDAY MAY 22
SCENIC CRUSE10am until 12 noon:
We will have a short cruise to Red Rock and it will take less than 30 minutes to get there and there is a paved, 13 mile, one-way scenic drive (open from dawn to dusk), within the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area boundaries. There is a fee for using this road of less than $10.00 (should be $7.00 but you know the park service). Very Scenic, very twisty and a good place to say good by to Las Vegas. The end of the loop is within 5 miles of the express way in case you are leaving after the cruise
End of WHiV4...Hope you all had a good time

PARKING
Orleans is providing an area that will be watched very closely in the West Parking Garage. We will be parking in the area where the executives of the Hotel park. It is well patrolled and the cameras do work. Security is planning on having a foot patrol thru the parking area along with random vehicle patrols.
In the coming weeks we may post some additional information on the meet.
Swag will be available very soon.
If you wish to be a confirmed attendee to this event and receive free rememberances, you must preregister for the hotel room or purchase a T shirt prior to the day of the event. All those preregistering or becoming confirmed prior to the event will receive additional free items the day of the event, including the traditional beer mug. See page one post one for additional information, contact your area leader or just PM "Phil's 8"
For those rotary owners that do not wish to use the Orleans Hotel or do not wish to purchase a T, you are still WELCOME.
