FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Village Lake Las Vegas continues business operations and events without interruptions

Operations of planned events, entertainment, shopping and dining options unaffected by changes

LAS VEGAS – March 4, 2010 – The past month has seen several business adjustments to Lake Las Vegas, including the announcements of the Ritz Carlton and Casino MonteLago closings. However, the owner of The Village Lake Las Vegas, a separate entity from both the Ritz Carlton and Casino MonteLago, reiterates that despite the loss of these two operators, the business operations and events at The Village will not be affected.

“It’s sad to see the two operators go, but The Village is alive and well,” said Maurice Talley, commercial manager of The Village. “We’re resilient and optimistic that the closure of Ritz Carlton is only temporary and another announcement will be made in the very near future regarding that property. The Village drives its own traffic with events and entertainment, and is going to continue to do so.”

Located just 17 miles from the heart of Las Vegas, The Village is home to more than 30 unique shopping and dining options and is currently at 91 percent occupancy with its various tenants.

Multiple lodging options are available for guests within The Village and Lake Las Vegas. MonteLago Village Resort provides two world-class properties within The Village and nearby waterfront area. MonteLago Village Resort offers guests room options from one to three-bedroom units, some located directly within The Village and most with romantic views of Lake Las Vegas. The Resort also operates two meeting facilities and a larger events center located within The Village, making it an ideal location for a business conference or special event.

Vacation Villas provides additional lodging for guests ranging from one-bedroom units to fully-furnished water-front homes. Additionally, Loews Lake Las Vegas is located across from The Village and offers guests a variety of amenities including dining, spa and meeting facilities.

The Village provides a beautiful backdrop for special events and concerts throughout the year, including the upcoming “Brews Best Village Beer Fest,” to benefit New Vista Community on Saturday, March 13; a live production of “The Taming of the Shrew” presented by Shakespeare At Play on Friday, March 26; Monthly Wine Walks to benefit New Vista Community beginning on Saturday, April 3; and the annual Easter Egg Hunt and celebration on Sunday, April 4.
