Want a sharper mind? Better memory? Faster focus? Bigger creative leaps?

Join us for a high-energy session with Nelson Dellis, world-renowned memory coach and author of Everyday Genius, and learn how extraordinary thinking is closer than you think. You’ll pick up practical memory techniques you can use immediately!

Arrive early at 3:30pm to put your memory to the test in our Nelson Dellis Pi Challenge. Between now and Pi Day, memorize as many digits of π as you can. When you arrive between 3:30-4:15 on 3/14, submit your best run to Nelson Dellis himself. The person who recalls the most digits correctly takes home a $314 COOP gift card!

This inspiring afternoon will show you how “genius” isn’t a rare gift—it’s a skill you can train. Come curious, leave sharper, and discover your inner genius.
