Where do I even start. Let's get into it. **First: 80+ dads saw Kanye.** Yeah. Eighty. One of our Dad Skool Dads came through with a bunch of tickets and just... gave them to the Pack. That's the kind of thing that happens when you build real community. One of our newer guys even got to bring his son for his birthday. Look, this is a dad event - but it's a kid's birthday. We let it happen. No regrets. That night was one for the books. Wanna see? https://www.instagram.com/reel/DaQxQHgAXKI/?igsh=M2lxdHozdzQ4bWF4 **Second: Game Night at Main Event - THIS FRIDAY, July 3rd, 7-10 PM.** Dads only. First Friday, just not at the clubhouse this time. We're taking it to Main Event in Lutz and using those $100 gift cards from the Father's Day goodie bags. Don't have a gift card? I've got one for you. Just fill out the form and show up. We'll also use this night to plan our next trip back WITH the kids. Sign up here: https://forms.gle/1poS8N92YAneUjr46 **Third: Private Theater Movie Night - Spider-Man.** We're renting out a private theater to see Spider-Man. Tickets are $10 a head, the theater holds 40, and spots will go fast. Fill out the form to tell us how many seats you need and which date works best for you. First come, first served. Sign up here: https://forms.gle/f7qANCkN2UiMFCNy8 **Fourth: Welcome to all the new dads.** A lot of new faces have been showing up and asking how to get more involved. Here's the short version: Most of you are on free membership right now, which is great. But our paid members are what make bigger and better events possible - food, activities, all of it goes back into the Pack. If you want to level up, check out your membership options here: https://www.skool.com/dad-skool/plans Also - when you join as a paid member, you get your own referral link. If someone joins through your link, you get a little affiliate commission. That's not why we're doing this - but if you love what we're building and you're out here spreading the word, why shouldn't you get something back for it? That's just how we think about it.

Yo Daddios, I thought this was something we can all use, so, if it interests you, register and enjoy. Link to register: https://vtwebinar.com/#form-box I plan on attending, and if anyone wants to discuss what we heard after, we can set up a call and discuss what we agreed with, what we didn't, and what actions or strategies we intend on implementing within our families moving forward because of it.

Watch this one!

That was DEFINITELY a good time last night, fellas! 50+ dads out running with the Pack, and somewhere out there a few new wolves are about to smell the smoke and come find us. In the meantime, here's a few pics to hold you over. If you were there and snapped anything good, drop it in the album so we can put together a highlight video down the road.

Today is Father's Day. Here's what I actually want Tampa Bay dads to hear. Not the card version. The real version. Being a father of six while building multiple things at once means I spend a lot of time in the gap between the dad I want to be and the dad I actually show up as on any given day. Some days the gap is small. Some days it's wide enough to bother me. What I've learned - slowly, and not always gracefully - is that the gap isn't the problem. Pretending it doesn't exist is. The dads I respect most in Tampa Bay aren't the ones who have it figured out. They're the ones who keep showing up even when they don't. Who come back after the long day. Who say sorry when they got it wrong. Who build things not just for themselves but for the kids watching them do it. That's what Dad Skool is for. Not to make perfect fathers. To make sure Tampa Bay dads don't disappear into their work, their stress, or their silence without a community around them. Happy Father's Day to every dad out there doing the work - even on the days it doesn't feel like enough.
