Destination Las Vegas: Expo-nential Timeshare Fun

A whopping 6 million people attend meetings, conventions, trade shows and expos in Las Vegas every year, according to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. All of these delegates attend about 24,000 meetings annually!

If you’re heading to Las Vegas in 2009, consider tacking a few days on to the event and making a vacation out of it with a timeshare resort stay. After all, besides attending convention-related seminars, speeches, and parties, you know there’s plenty to do in Vegas–from dropping a few dollars at the casinos to watching Broadway-caliber shows to dining at world-class buffets.
