Palm Beach County Mensa Calendar of Events
October, 2004

Mensa events are open to all Mensans, their spouses, children and guests. Who may or may not attend a private home is at the host's discretion. Hosts: Please mention any special concerns about your location, such as smoking restrictions, limited access for the handicapped, or presence of pets. Guests: If you have any special needs or restrictions, please check with your host before attending an event.

Notice! Our group has merged its calendar with the one from the Broward group and some events from Miami. The icon in the rightmost column of the event indicates what group(s) are hosting that activity (B for Broward, M for Miami, P for Palm Beach County). See the legends at the bottom of this page for an explanation of other icons that may appear in this column. Most phone numbers for Broward events will be area code 954, for Miami, 305.

Saturday, October 2. SPEAKER NIGHT! Join first-time host W. Gail Custode as she presents Gaspare Marturano and friends. Topic- Stand Up and Improvisational Comedy. Since this is W. Gail's first time hosting a Mensa event (and since she's intimated that she's not your ordinary "chips and dips" type of woman), a head count is especially important- please be considerate and RSVP BEFORE the day of the event! 954-321-1706. Smoking outside with the gators- you donšt have to be fast, just faster than your buddy. (Last minute RSVPs will be greeted at the door with a smile and a dusty M&M.)
