Subject: [NABS-L] Come To Blind Fest Las Vegas 2024

Hello NFB and ACB students,

I'm Aaron Espinoza, and I'm excited to introduce a fun event that I'm helping organize.
Blind Fest Las Vegas 2024

The first ever Blind Fest Las Vegas is set to take place from Thursday, July 18, to Sunday, July 21, 2024. This exclusive event is tailored for individuals that are blind or low vision aged 21 and above, promising a unique and unforgettable experience for all attendees. We believe that everyone should experience Las Vegas and all it has to offer, including individuals who are blind or have low vision.
Where Will We Be Staying?

We will be staying at the Flamingo Hotel, strategically positioned in the heart of the vibrant Las Vegas Strip. Renowned for its affordability without compromising on quality, the Flamingo Hotel is an ideal choice for our  stay. We firmly believe that one's first experience in Las Vegas should take place along the iconic strip, and the Flamingo Hotel ensures a memorable stay in this lively and dynamic city.
What Will We Do There?

The organizers of Blind Fest Las Vegas 2024 have  crafted a daily schedule of group activities. Nevertheless, participants are at liberty to explore and partake in personal activities of their choice while in Las Vegas. Some of the activities for our trip include enjoying daily meals at the buffet, partaking in pool parties, exploring day and night clubs, visiting men and women strip clubs, trying our luck at gambling, and exploring iconic Las Vegas landmarks such as the "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign, the Eiffel Tower at Paris Las Vegas, the Bellagio Fountains, the Mirage Volcano, the Sphinx & Luxor Pyramid, and other notable sights.
Additionally, we plan to attend paid attractions such as the High Roller Wheel, STRAT Tower Observation Deck, and Fly LINQ Zipline, as well as maximizing our time by visiting as many free attractions as possible.
Registration Information

Each guest is responsible for making his/her own reservations with Flamingo Las Vegas.
