Yes and no. Some food is supplied, like for the banquet, but you're mostly on your own. Check out the schedule for specifics. You can get food at the hotel/casino, or just wander outside. We're only a block from the strip, so if you're trying to save some money, you don't have to go far. The strip has some fast food restaurants, which are quick and cheap, but there are some very good buffets for reasonable prices nearby. I think the Sahara is supposed to have a good one, and it's just across the street.

<DIV>Ahh, I see I see. Alright, that's fine. Just wanted to know what to expect once we got there. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>About the banquet, did I read it was a buffet? If it is than why do they ask if you are vegetarian during registration (I being a vegetarian)?</DIV>

It's a buffet, and an excellent one in my opinion (at least they have in the past). However, they will accommodate vegetarians with a special plate. Most places will do that. I assume they'll tell you how to go about getting your food. It might be as simple as letting one of the servers know. They do have people walking around for things like that.
