I'm good with an Allen meetup spot... There are those new 'shops at Allen' at 75/Stacey which have a few places to meet up.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2011/7/19 Jason H King <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jhking@airmail.net">jhking@airmail.net</a>></span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><div style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><font size="2"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">+1 for yearly conference.<br>
As a noob on the list, is there someplace I can find meeting places/times for DFW groups.<br>I live in Flower Mound and work in Plano so depending on starting times either an Allen group or a Grapevine group could work for me.<br>
