SynRG 2026: Back To The Future

  • Gulf Coast Mensa
  • May 22, 2026

Woo

Great Scott — it’s time for Gulf Coast Mensa’s annual Regional Gathering!

Every Memorial Day weekend, Mensans from across the region converge on a Houston-area hotel for SynRG, a full weekend of speakers, themed activities, meals, drinks, and the kind of conversations that tend to bend space-time in the best possible way. This year’s journey runs May 22–25, 2026, and your registration covers the whole adventure — from brainy programs to beverages of both the spirited and non-spirited variety.

The 2026 theme? Back to the Future: One Weekend. Infinite Timelines.
Climb into the DeLorean and revisit everything that makes RGs unforgettable: big ideas, unexpected laughs, and moments that somehow become instant lore.

In short: it’s shaping up to be 1.21 gigawatts of fun. You do not want to be the one who missed the timeline where this happened.
