While American Mensa is broken into “regions,” each encompassing multiple Local Groups, an RG is actually the gathering of a Local Group — perhaps annually or biennially . In this sense, a true “Regional Gathering” of all the local groups that fall within a designated American Mensa region does not exist. Also, please note not all Local Groups hold an RG.
Confusing, eh?
Every year or two (sometimes less often), MWW hosts or co-hosts a Regional Gathering. In 2011, instead of hosting a Regional Gathering, we were pleased to co-host the Annual Gathering with Oregon Mensa.
Our most recent Regional Gatherings were:
- 2017, Emerald City Regional Gathering, Return to Oz @ DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Seattle Airport
- 2018 Emerald City RG, Where Magic Can Happen @ Red Lion Hotel, Bellevue, WA
- 2021, Emerald City Regional Gathering, Find the Emerald Lining in a virtual (online) format
The 2023 Emerald City Regional Gathering, at the Rainbow’s End will be @ the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Seattle Airport. Visit the RG page for more information.
We hope to see you there!
