Jeff:
 
Unfortunately I too would consider Frisco way out of the way. Not
necessarily due to the mileage but due to the traffic. No matter what way
you slice it getting into Frisco is pretty much limited to Preston, Coit or
the DNT (this might get better once they open the new section to 380), all
of which back up horribly at rush hour. Therefore I would consider driving
into Frisco (between 4 and 7PM) a close tie for first on the fun-meter with
sticking toothpicks into your fingernail bed.
 
I appreciate your time looking into venues. I too found a similar location
in Dallas (Dallas Community Center) which was designed solely for group
meetings, however it was limited to government entities and 501.C3 groups.
Similarly, Dallas parks department does allow rentals of some of their
recreation centers for a small fee. This might be something to look into as
well.
 
I am sure a solution is just around the corner.

Jeff,
Unfortunately, we are not incorporated.  Sounds like good bennies though! 
Personally, I would consider Frisco "way out of the way", and I live in
Carrollton.  That's just me but am wiling to see what the response is. 
I know that we all appreciate you looking for, and finding, a possible
location for the group.
Thanks,
Joe Kelly

Has a new location been settled on yet? 

If Frisco isn't too ridiculously out of the way I have a location
that seats approximately 40 with enough table space for each person
to have a laptop and a notebook.  Also available are a projector and
screen screen, wi-fi, can bring your own server/router and plug in to
the network in order to broadcast the meeting or run demo sites,
climate control, food (pizza, burgers, tex-mex, sandwiches ...) and
beverage (including adult beverages) and a larger room available for 
the meetings that attract a larger audience.  They can also cater a
more upscale level of food if a sponsor wanted to do that for us on
occasion.

Other than location the only down side I see is that it normally 
costs 50.00 per event however if this is a registered 501c3 we may be
able to make arrangements to have the room for free, and if not I
still might be able to do something about the fee but don't want to
start those wheels turning unless it's probable that this would be
where the group moved to.

If interested in travelling to Frisco let me know and we can identify
whatever hurdles exist and I can start finding solutions for them.
