EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S BRIEF

Dear Members,

It’s time to begin planning your trip to Las Vegas for our 93rd Annual Conference.
We will be staying at the Palms Resort Hotel, a well-known Las Vegas landmark. Las
Vegas is also known for good deals, and our room rate is only $99 per night weekdays,
and $129 on Friday and Saturday. Both President Mike LaCorte and I have visited the
hotel in recent months. There are numerous casual and fine dining options on site, a
spa, night clubs, and a multi-screen movie theater.

Our arrival date is Thursday September 27th which is the final day for the ASIS
International Conference just a short distance away. Our Gala Banquet will be
held on Monday evening October 1st. In addition to all of the excellent seminars,
networking events, and business meetings, we have a social event planned for
an evening cocktail reception at the Casa de Shenandoah, the former home and
52 acre estate of “Mr. Las Vegas”, Wayne Newton. www.casadeshenandoah.com
Whether this is your first annual conference, or your 30th, we’re sure you won’t be
disappointed. Be sure to plan a couple extra nights to see that all Las Vegas and the surrounding area has to offer. Take a tour to
Hoover Dam, visit the Mob Museum, and be sure to spend an evening in old downtown Las Vegas and take in the Fremont Street
Experience. Maybe even ride the zip line!

Sincerely,
Bob Heales

WAD Executive Director
