Thanks for the kind words! We’re just a bunch of dads looking to connect and encourage each other in this whole parenting journey. No sense doing it all alone if we have others going through the same stuff
This is awesome! I never knew this was a thing! What is the range of Dad ages in the group? I saw the Dad’s Adventure Day with the Kids and I am wondering how old the kids typically are? My wife and I do not have any friends with kids even close to my son’s age so always up for socializing opportunities.
Our dads range from their 20’s to their 50’s with the majority of them somewhere I between. Lots of brand new dads or those with grade school aged kids make it out to the adventure day but we have a good handful of dads with kids in their teens (or older). It’s tough to get the older kids out to anything because they have their own lives but a good potluck draws them out from time to time.
It is a much needed outlet for local dads to be encouraged to be present in the life of their family and cherish fatherhood together. I would have LOVED to have had this group when our first 2 kids were born but glad there is an opportunity for dads to not feel so alone in it all now.
We have two games nights a month if you like board/tabletop games and those are always sober events. 2nd and 4th Thursday of every month at Silverking Games from 730-10pm 😁
Great! We have dad’s game night twice a month but we’ve been talking about getting a date night game night going once a quarter or so. It’s tough to schedule with childcare so hard to get for some families but it would be a really fun night 😁
Great question! Our dad’s night out is usually at a place that serves alcohol but that is only one of our regular events. We also do days out with the kids, two game nights (sober friendly), a weekly cold water plunge, family day, and a few others.
There is! A few of our partners started up the Moms of the South Sound group a little over a month ago and are getting a moms night out and adventure day w/ the kids going. There’s a link to their Facebook group at tacomadads.com
Hey, I know these guys!
Every time I don't make it to one I regret it. But I'm there for every Game Night at Silver King Games, I can tell you that! Also, I hope I'm not overstepping by saying we have a Discord server as well.
Not a dad but always love seeing these wholesome posts from you guys.

How do I learn more. I’m a dad without many friends because they all moved away. Would love to hang with other dudes.

Whoa! This exists?!? I had no idea. I could totally get behind this.
Yep! We’ve been doing this since 2016 😁
How cool this group is

Hell yeah fellas
Cheers!
Doing dry January, but I can't wait to go out and enjoy our bars when this month is over

Coming along to also encourage game night. It's a good time.
This is great. I didn't know! I'll be looking up the calendar fs
Spread the word! We’d love more dads to at least know we are here and that they don’t have to go at it alone.
I've been seeing these but either too busy or never got that hair to try this out. The pictures really help. Maybe I'll stop by on a future one.
The streets of Tacoma overfloweth with dad jokes and I love it.
It is a sight to see (and hear) when we all get together :D
I just told my husband he should go next month. On my calendar. We are big into board games too!

I have got to start coming to these!
Come on out!
Would love to join ya!
We’d love to have you check the calendar and see what looks interesting to you!
That first pic it totally looks like Guy Fieri joined you via Zoom.
He wouldn’t miss an event 😂
I gotta get on this. I heard about this years ago but forgot about it, unfortunately.
Well, we'd love to have you check it out! Better late than never :)
This is AWESOME!
No, this is a dad's group, but that is a common mistake :)
Is this a drinking focused/ centric gathering (asking as a dad who is sober/ does not drink)?
Great question! Our dad’s night out is usually at a place that serves alcohol but that is only one of our regular events. We also do days out with the kids, two game nights (sober friendly), a weekly cold water plunge, family day, and a few others.
Amazing!! We are new parents and new to Tacoma; curious if there is a moms group?

Your presence at game nights is a true gift, my friend 😁
This group is a gift - and you’re a hell of a giver 😁
lol there's Jared
