*DADS OF TAMPA SKOOL* Let's get into it. *⏳ 36 DAYS. June 20th is coming fast.* The Dad Next Door Father's Day Party, 12-5 PM, Live Oak Community. We hit our 20-signup minimum (let's go!) but if you haven't signed up yet, do it anyway. Every name counts and this thing is shaping up to be something special. 🔗 https://fathersdayparty.dadskool.org/ *First: We invented something on the Monday night call and we think you're going to like it.* Introducing... *Tool Time.* Here's the deal. Every one of us has at least one thing we're really good at. Something we could probably teach. So let's see it. One dad gets a 30-minute block every First Friday night. 10 minutes to pitch, teach, demo, or share whatever your "tool" or skill is. 20 minutes of Q&A or informal workshop after. That's it. Then we go back to snacks, games, and chillaxing. Card trick? Let's see it. AI hack that changed your life? Show us. Shark Tank pitch you've been sitting on? The floor is yours. Wannabe comedian who needs to workshop some material? Say less. Your business? Cool, just don't be boring. Want to catch the full conversation from Monday Night Skool where we cooked this up? Recording here: 🎥 https://www.skool.com/dads-of-tampa-3728/monday-night-call-51126?p=62fe47a5 So... what would YOU do with 30 minutes of our undivided attention? Reply and tell us. First volunteers get first pick of dates. *Second: The Dadabase needs you.* We're building a go-to list of dad-owned businesses our members can call on, refer to, and support. If you've got a business and you're not in the Dadabase yet, reply and get in. Also - if you want to throw something in the Father's Day goodie bags as a sponsor, big or small, we want it. Hit me up. *Third: Dad Joke of the Week.* 😂 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DYUTYWEAMQ3/?igsh=MWtxemlxc2pvcXN4Yw==

Fellas, during our call last night we came up with something we want to try out at our First Friday meetings, and we think you're going to dig it. We're calling it "Tool Time". Here's the premise: Every one of us has at least one skill set (or tool), something we are so good at we can probably teach it. So, let's see it. One Dad will have a 30 minute block of time to teach the rest of us something. This could be a card trick, a recipe, how to create something in AI, the only limit is your imagination. Want to practice your Shark Tank idea pitch? Done. Aspire to be a comedian and want to workshop your set? Say less. Talk about your business? Okay, but try not to be boring. We figured 10 minutes to pitch or teach about a tool you found or whatever it is, and then 20 minutes of Q&A or informal workshop after, and that becomes a nice value add to our meeting to attract more Dads, and then we can spend the remaining 2 hours snacking and playing cards or whatever we want. What do you think? What would you do with your 30 minutes of our undivided attention?

Lots of goodies

Hey Dads, don’t forget we have a call tonight at 7pm. I actually want to have a talk about something specific and kind of serious, what happens when one of us falls (failure, scandal, etc) and how do we handle it. Hope you can make it because I think it’s an important conversation. Meeting link: https://www.skool.com/live/cFWdSBnBDBq
