Think of all the fun to be had if we organized for meetups, events, and more! This is why I want to attempt at riling up the Guides in Arlington, Tx. 
Here’s the rough plan:
Let’s start by organizing online here, just to see how many of us are active and interested in a future meet-up.
Especially since a major hurdle for forming a meet-up is knowing whether or not to people will show up 
Hopefully after receiving some responses, we can organize a date and time to meet up at, perhaps in a conference room, like at Inclusion Coffee or George W. Hawkes Downtown Public Library.
Eventually, the goal is to form a more connected local group, that meets up regularly, called the “Local Guides of Arlington”; all for encouraging coordination, socializing, activity, and discussion amongst anyone participating on Google maps, with the hope that we can share and improve our experiences with the platform and each other in Arlington.
If you are in the Arlington TX area, comment below and/or PM me to let me, and others, know if you are interested!

Thank you for the tag @TusharSuradkar or else I would miss this post, even though it’s already almost a year old.
Hi @Nessue not sure if you were able to arrange the meetup or not. But I am up for such meetup all the time. I live in Richardson, about 45 mins drive from Arlington, depending on which part of Arlington we are talking about. Please arrange something and let me know. I sure will try to join you if it’s on a weekend. Please don’t forget to tag me or pm me.
