Tyler Run Club Organizes Event to Support Closing Gresham Coffee Shop

It's important to give back and help others when you can. Which is why I was so impressed over the weekend when I got a random message on social media from Grace who created the Rose City Run Club in Tyler, Texas. Grace wanted to do something to help show support for the Big Shot Coffee House in Gresham that is shutting down later this month.

East Texans Are Finding Ways to Support Big Shot Coffee House

We learned that Big Shot Coffee House is planning to shut down after an all-day party on Saturday, October 24th. The owner of Big Shot posted about it on social media, and many people have commented that they want to show their appreciation by showing up to the event.

When Is the Rose City Run Club Event at Big Shot Coffee House?

But Grace wanted to start showing support before their final day in business which is why she is now setting up an event next Saturday, October 17 at 9:00 a.m. encouraging anyone who wants to join in on the fun to meet her and her run club at Big Shot Coffee House to grab drinks before they hit the trail.

This run club is all-inclusive, even if you haven't exercised in years. The group is about supporting anyone who comes out, and obviously local businesses too. You don't have to RSVP, just show up.

Supporting Local Businesses Doesn't Have to Be Complicated

When posting about this online, it was wonderful to hear that some locals were visiting Big Shot Coffee this past weekend, and it was packed full of customers. It's just wonderful to hear about so many East Texans coming together to say thank you to a wonderful business owner who created something that we all enjoyed for years.
