A few of my friends and I are flying there in the middle of June to celebrate my 21st birthday. Our tentative dates are arriving June 16th and returning on June 20th. The plane tickets and hotel have been taken care of, but we're trying to make an itinerary. I have a couple places picked out, but they're a little on the expensive end.
Does anyone have recommendations on sights to see or places to go?

Make sure to check out the half price ticket booth at the Fashion Show Mall on the strip. They start sales at 11:00am for that evenings shows. I've gotten 1/2 price for Mama Mia & 25% off Spamalot. Both great shows.
I also like to make Mandalay Bay my base of operations. Lots of cool restaraunts & bars and their lounge acts are actually good! (No cover charge, just a 2 drink minimum).
Personally, I'd skip the dam tour. Not too interesting after the first 15 minutes or so, IMHO.

Air trip to Grand Canyon is a good pick if you haven't been there but expensive though. Better need to make sure you get the early morning tour. Current is better and wouldn't have many delay.
Agree that dam tour is so so.
Hmmm, most 21st birthdays in Vegas involve lots of drinking, gambling, clubbing, and canoodling with the opposite sex.
Can you give us a better idea of what you're interested in?
I'm in my 20's and when I go if its late spring or summer I spend the day at either Bare Pool at the Mirage or Tao Beach at the Venetian (Rehab is gross). At night hit a show or nice dinner then the club. My favorites:
1. Tryst at the Wynn
2. Tao
3. LAX (Luxor) or Moon=good view (Palms)
The Bank just opened at the Bellagio and that is one of the hottest in town. Will check it out in March. Prive opened in the Planet Hollywood but, its kind of Warehouse like I've heard. Are you just a group of guys, girls or mixed. If guys you may/likely will have difficultly getting in w/o a tip. Tables are not cheap though plan on $350-475/bottle and generally its one per every 3-4 people. Cover is $20 for girls and $30 for guys at most places. Oh and If your there Sunday night the best place is the Body English but the Hard Rock gets pretty ghetto.

Blush
$475
If it seems criminal to leave any juice behind in the bottle when you’re paying close to $500 for it ... don’t worry. At Blush, they’ll store your unfinished bottle for up to a week.
