Welcome!

Oregon Mensa

Group of the Year 2007-2008
One of the fastest growing Mensa Groups in Region 8

As our membership year comes to an end, we have over 825 members with significant membership groups in Bend, Grants Pass, Roseburg, Eugene, Corvallis, Salem, Portland, Vancouver, Astoria, and Coos Bay.

Membership in Mensa means a variety of things to people. For some, it is an intentional family. For others it is a place to socialize with folks who "get your jokes," to discuss books and movies, or to dine on ethnic foods. Still others like being a card carrying member but choose not to go to events.

Mensa is the ultimate do-it-yourself matchmaking group. It provides the ability to engage others in your favorite activities—knowing that each time you meet, there is the potential for far-ranging conversation, quirky ideas, and inevitable puns and word plays. Match up with people who like foreign films, hiking, gourmet cooking, talking about raising smart kids, books, and games.
