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.

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.

January 27-28. Camp or back-pack at Collier-Seminole State Park near Naples.  Lovely camp sites, and the park has the last of the original dredges that created the South Florida canal systems.  It's huge, and truly mystifying in some ways.  Not too far away, a hiking path that takes about 3-4 hours.  OAK will supply Saturday Night dinner.  You can come there either Friday night or Saturday night at the same cost.  You can borrow a tent, mattress, sleeping bag, cooler.  We have sites 29, 69, 70.  Cost $30.00 Per Member, $35.00 Per Non-Member, for one night or two nights, and includes Saturday night dinner.  Contact Jordan London, 954-961-8286.
