2014 Joint Annual Gathering of American Mensa and Mensa Canada
The 2014 Annual Gathering of American Mensa (which is jointly also the Annual Gathering of Mensa Canada) is to be held July 2-6, 2014 in Boston at the Sheraton Boston hotel (which sold out soon after the previous year's AG, leading attendees to look for overflow hotels or rooms opening up due to cancellations).
This year's AG had its own app (for iOS and Android devices), produced by an external vendor, released less than a week from the start of the gathering. (Search for "Mensa AG 2014" in the App Store or Google Play Store.)
Claire Natola's quarterly AG committee report (member login required to access it) reported some disgruntlement on the part of the committee about all the rules imposed by national (as part of the steady trend over a number of years for the AG to be less of a grass-roots volunteer effort and more a production of paid staff and contractors), in particular the committee being forbidden to talk directly with the hotel, and even limited in who at Mensa's own national office they could talk directly with.
