I HAD A PREVIOUS CALL AT THAT SAME ADDRESS AT APPROXIMATELY 2300 HOURS, IN REFERENCE TO THE SAME TWO FEMALES WHO WERE ALSO YELLING AT THAT TIME, AND WAKING UP GUESTS AT the RESORT. THE FEMALES WERE ADVISED TO GO BACK TO THEIR ROOM, AT WHICH TIME THEY ADVISED THAT THEY WOULD AND I WOULD NOT HEAR FROM THEM THE REST OF THE EVENING.
