The Mensokie is Central Oklahoma Mensa's monthly newsletter. Usually ranging from 12-16 pages, the newsletter includes original articles and drawings from local Mensa members. Subscriptions for Central Oklahoma Mensa members are included in the yearly dues paid to American Mensa. The Mensokie is available to non-members and members outside the designated area for an annual cost of $12, by contacting the editor.
If you would like to be notified when articles from the Mensokie are posted online, you can subscribe to our Mensokie RSS Feed.
Newsletters from other local groups are available on the American Mensa website.
Note: Due to technical difficulties, there was no newsletter for March 2006. We apologize for the inconvenience.
