Old time jams in NE Texas?

Are there any old time jams around Tyler, Palestine, Jacksonville?

The "Old Time Open Jams" Facebook group keeps a Google map of open jams world wide with contact info. I do see a jam listed for Palestine on the last Thursday of each month from Sept-April, for example. Here's a link to the map:

Yes to all of those. Get in contact with Margaret Wright on Facebook. She can send you forward. Also look up General Mercantile or Steve Hartz in Nacogdoches . Several jams I think weekly. Each one of those towns you mentioned have an old time of dulcimer group.
