Las Vegas, Nevada Conference Completed
October 22 - 27, 2012

What will you make of Vegas? The city is like one giant slot machine…you never know what you’ll get out of it! This metropolis can bill itself as a culinary destination, a shopping hot spot, the world's live entertainment capital, and an architectural wonder all in one.

Neon lights, dancing waters at the Bellagio, extraordinary shows, and poolside parties are well-known attractions here. The acrobatics of Cirque du Soleil will capture your imagination, while Celine Dion’s performance is sure to enchant you. But these desert sands offer plenty more than glitz and glamour.

For a world-class shopping and dining experience, Crystals at CityCenter offers luxury boutiques and restaurants boasting celebrity chefs. Visit the Atomic Testing Museum or stroll through the beautiful Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, where the spectacular display changes with the seasons.

Want golf? Pegged as a gem of the golf world, and located just 30 minutes from the Strip, Cascata is a par-72 course offering stunning vistas and a spectacular landscape defined by a 418-foot waterfall. After your round, cool off at the liveliest outdoor restaurant on the Strip—the Carnival Court Bar & Grill, where you’ll find live music and some of the world’s top flair bartenders.

Accommodations

The Flamingo Las Vegas is located right on the Strip, only minutes from McCarran International Airport. This famous 7,000-square foot Caribbean-style casino offers some incredible amenities. Swim in the outdoor pool and lagoon surrounded by a 15-acre tropical retreat, choose from eight on-site restaurants and lounges, enjoy the health club, luxurious spa, and full-service beauty salon, and don’t miss taking advantage of Flamingo’s guests’ preferred access to Cascata and Rio Secco golf courses.

Basic room rate: $55 (does not include taxes and fees).
