It's under "IMPACT Lindale" on Facebook, I think.Yes there are two IMPACT groups in East Texas, IMPACT Lindale/Tyler and IMPACT Longview The Lindale Tyler group typically meets the first Tuesday of the Month at Brisket Love just North of I-20 on 849 near Hideaway, they also have a Saturday breakfast and Investment Property tour once a Month on a Saturday.The Longview group meets the 2nd Monday near the Longview Airport (South Longview).Both IMPACT's have a Facebook presents in Groups and also on Meetup com

I'm happy to organize both an evening group (networking and a guest speaker) and a breakfast/coffee or lunch networking group.For the evening group: Where should we meet?

Good luck with that as it has to be a bed and breakfast which means you must be living there.

I would only consider being in areas that already are well stocked with bed and breakfasts as well as vacation rentals and perhaps hotels.

Sort of a bed & breakfast idea with two sources of cash flow.  

Please let me know if you have any breakfast or lunch meetings.Best,Don Rotanz

I will definitely buy as many breakfasts, coffees, lunches, or dinners as it takes, as well!

There are home businesses, bed and breakfasts, and a whole host of things that has been in most zoning or code books for decades.
