1 MAINESCENE The Newsletter of Maine Mensa Volume 8, Issue 2 Spring 2017 ~ The 2 nd Best Fun & Games Mini RG EVAH! ~ June 2, 3, 4, 2017 Clarion Hotel, Portland Region 1 ALL Maine Mensa members will get the EARLY BIRD special! $40 for the weekend and $20 for Saturday only. We want Maine Mensans to attend. There is no better way to get acquainted with your fellow state Mensans (AND of course Mensans from other states) and maybe build connections maybe find a new friend or linked-in connection or even a potentially intimate relationship. Or how about volunteering?! Contact Anne Allen, the Registrar, at durhamme@yahoo.com or (207) You will get to meet our Loc Sec (Anne) and other state officers and maybe even talk about what is going on in your neck of the woods. Maybe you will find out more what your Mensa membership can do for you, and if you have never met most of who will be attendees, what you have been missing. Remember that Mensa is a social club. There will be all kinds of games, including Mensa Select games, and games instructors; food and hospitality; and Saturday evening, Brain Busting Trivia with Caleb and Joe in the hotel restaurant. You will also get to experience life in the hub of Portland, with so many top grade restaurants and attractions close by. Fill out the registration form, at the end of this newsletter! Newsletter 1

Culture Quest is a timed trivia, taking place all over the globe-at exactly the same time. Mensan teams gather in their neighborhoods across the U.S. and Canada and compete for cash prizes or just for bragging rights. For 90 minutes, your team will answer questions ranging from film to politics, from literature to geography, from music to history, math and science, and farther afield. You just need a time commitment, 4pm to 6pm Sunday April 30. This is a National Mensa Event YOU can participate in! The more diversity in the team, the greater the chance of knowing the answers. Everyone contributes. There can be up to 5 members on each team and 2 alternates. It can be played with a team of 2 or 3. Maine Mensa pays for the registration Fee for the Team ($50.00 each team). You may need to travel to the nearest location, but if you have 3 or 4 others near to you - bonus! Last year we had 4 Teams in Maine - Bangor, Ellsworth, and 2 in Portland. Interested?

How To Pitch In Around the Region (and beyond): As I write this month's column, I am sitting in the hospitality suite at the Snowball RG hosted by Central New Jersey Mensa. It is 7:00am - I'm tired, a bit hung over and so very happy to have the opportunity to spend some time with 200+ other Mensans. This is my other family, a place where I can be myself and just enjoy life. Why aren't you here? Join Boston Mensa on beautiful Cape Cod for a relaxing, unstructured weekend of socializing and hospitality with old friends and new. Visit Provincetown, enjoy great seafood, go whale watching, antiquing, bicycling, or just sit back and listen to the ocean. Play games while overlooking the sea. Enjoy drinks on an oceanfront deck. A great RG for first-timers! For info or to register: MAINE mini-rg June 2-4, 2017 The 2nd Best <Fun & Games> mini RG EVAH!

4 A find: 33 Elmwood, Westbrook, Maine by Robert S. Lagos On Wednesday, we gathered for a Mensa Happy Hour at 33 Elmwood in Westbrook. It is located in a very woodsy part of Westbrook. Anne, Sue, Kat, Jim, Karen, Melina, and myself participated, and we were later joined by Lisa Maxwell. I was particularly impressed with the friendliness of the staff. They let all of us enjoy the Happy Hour special even though many of us arrived after 6 pm, which is when it is supposed to end. I had a Korean BBQ meatball special, along with a Bud Light and the Dude, a liquor made with coffee and chocolate, which also has nuggets of mixtures of those in the drink. Jim and Kat had a marinara mozzarella meatball plate. Anne and Sue had a Maine Oyster plate and Fried Brussels (brussel sprouts). Sue also had the Dude. For dessert, we shared a mudslide cheesecake and chocolate laced Cannoli. There were bocce lanes, but we did not play (I wish we had); I kept noticing, on the wall furthest from where we were sitting, across the candlepin lanes undergoing renovation, hanging doors with artsy looking numbers of different fonts and styles, numbered sequentially from 1 to about 23 (with a couple of skips). In all, a very funky, artsy, but comfortable ambience, in a very out of the way place; it is something I can say is a little more out of the ordinary than your usual out of the ordinary! It is a place I would really like to try again, and maybe next time also making it a bocce event! Word Scramble!!! By Robert S. Lagos Unscramble the words or phrases below!

The findings will be published in a forthcoming book for which Wilma was awarded a contract. I am responsible for the IT stuff: setting the survey up on the website, and doing the statistical analysis. Wilma has been writing and designing the book. Eric has been providing perspectives as a psychologist in private practice in Massachusetts. It was a small room, but the event was well attended. Wilma and I co-lead the Asperger Adult group which meets once a month in Portland, Maine. I have been a facilitator of it for the last 10 years. All three of us, in fact, are among the respondents, having taken the survey ourselves! I have done at least a couple of talks in the past at the New Hampshire RG on high-functioning autism and it seems to generate a high interest among Mensans. Articles and Letters to MaineScene If you have an article, story, biography, or anecdote you would like published, and particularly, which may be of local interest, feel free to send me your article, at robertslagos@gmail.com. And if you wish to send a letter to MaineScene, I would be interested, in particular, what you think you are getting out of your local membership (critical OR praising preferably relevant to the local scene.

I will also be happy to facilitate connecting you to other Mensans in your area in Maine, which may be helpful if you would like to start an event, or if you are a first-timer (or not such a newbie) who wants to meet others or find out who else is in your area.

Lagos (Editor and Publications Officer); Jim Sloan (Program Chair); Leona Prodouz (At Large and Membership Coordinator); Kathryn Masters (Ombudsman).

Minutes of last Meeting: The minutes to the last meeting of December 11, 2016 were approved. Scholarship: (Chance) There were 8 judges, and 33 essays to judge. 14 went to the next round. Gerald has indicated that if we continue to fund a $600 scholarship we will likely lose money over time in the treasury. So, this scholarship will be subject to annual approval for each following year. We will vote on next year s funding on our next Ex-Comm meeting in June. Testing - Proctorship: (Anne) Anne will follow up on another proctor hopeful, Jason House, who lives in Presque Isle. There has been no follow-through from Brandon on submitting the required paper-work for the proctorship, so Anne has decided to abandon pursuing him and will notify him of this decision and to ask for return of materials. Previous events for stipend (Robert): Robert brought a list of previous events for which host may be eligible to receive the $20 stipend. Anne will communicate with Robert about which events have already been submitted for a stipend. Treasurer report: (Anne on behalf of Gerald): The funds in the treasury have held steady at about $6K. New Business. Culture Quest: (Anne): Sunday April 30, 4pm. Anne will administer it there were no other volunteers. Upcoming Summer Events Planned: * Boat ride in Kezar Lake (David Conary) will be on July 16. * Picnic in Limington (Asherah Cinnamon) will be in late August date TBD. * Sue Flaherty will again host a pool party in July or August. * Jim Sloan will talk to Crystal and Johnnie about another brunch. * Leona plans another Halloween gathering this year it may be after Halloween which is on Tuesday. * One of our members expressed interest in hosting a summer gathering at his place in Blanchard Maine. Since it is in a fairly remote area (2 ½ hour drive from Portland) we want to find out who would attend, to publish it. Maine Mini RG, June 2: * 7 are registered. New attendees are Deb Stone and Lisa Maxwell. * A motion was made to give Early Bird special price to all Maine Mensans for the RG. The motion carried. * Hospitality/Chat room: this year we will have the room closest to the elevator on the first floor instead of the Hospitality Room upstairs that we had last year. * Chairs/duties: Anne is the Registrar. Sue and Anne will share the duties of registration at the RG. Others present volunteered to share in doing registration table shifts. We will schedule hours for people. * Game instructors: we will continue to use non-mensans for game teaching. * Logo cups: we talked about providing logo cups (similar to previous events such as the ones we offered last year from the 2012AG), personalized by labeling using colored sticky labels - members write their name with markers. We will obtain pricing information from Mensa Store for the insulated cups with logo and decide if it is worth the price. We may obtain outside pricing information as well. We will not do T-shirts this year. There was also talk about incorporating tiaras into the design of the logos. * Testing: we talked about also having testing. Robert suggested using the Hospitality Room for this. * Saturday night trivia: Start-time of Saturday 8:00pm was voted on. * RG Committee meetings and gatherings will be set up outside of the Ex-Comm to finalize actions. Kat volunteered to chair hospitality and Sue volunteered to assist Kat. Further communication among members present will be via . Next Ex-Comm meeting: June 11.
