Palm Beach County Mensa Calendar of Events
August, 2005

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.

Thursday, August 4, 7:00 pm. 1ST THURSDAY PUB NIGHT. By popular demand of the Pub Niters, we're moving from Field Irish Pub back to Bennigan's on Cypress Creek Road (just west of I-95, north side). Reasons: Bennigan's has self-parking and the Field has only valet; Bennigan's is less expensive and Bennigan's is more familiar to the uninitiated and therefore a better place to invite them. For further information call Jason Knight, 954-969-0683. New old/location!
