Rather than sitting through a movie and staying quiet all night, get to know your date by going to various places all over east Texas that offer activities that will get you off your seat! There's always something going on, so get together with friends and family and explore the fun things you can do all over east Texas:

3. Dining

Nothing says "first date" like a good meal. Lufkin tends to have too many options for places to eat, but only a handful have that "classic feel" to them that really set themselves apart from the others.
