The 2nd Annual Dadstock is quickly approaching.
When: SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 2008
Where: South East Wisconsin (Between Lake Geneva and Whitewater)
It is now official we have a new location for this years Dadstock. A nice homestead in South East Wisconsin we have nicknamed "Woodchuck Acres" since the owner of the property goes by the name of "Woodchuck" online...
Since we have moved the location to a more remote location away from neighbors in the burbs we can stay out late without fear of getting people angry.
On the Agenda...
1. Dadstock Golf Outing Saturday Morning... Contact and registration information available soon. On a course in the general area.
2. Dadstock Beerfest - Homebrews and Microbrews to be plentiful.
3. Food and Fire - The grills will be going with samplings of favorites of the many grill guys in the group...
4. Bonfire - As the night approaches the bonfire will be lit. Stories, chatting and fun for everyone...
5. Camping - For those that wish to camp there is room for everything from tents to pop-ups. This is great since it will allow everyone to drink and not have to worry about driving. A responsible party is a good party. There are also local hotels available as well as taxi service.
6. Games - Bean Bag Toss, Horse Shoes, Bocce Ball...
7. Chainsaw Demonstration - If everyone behaves Woodchuck will give some more demonstrations of his cutting skills.
8. RELAXATION!!!
For anyone coming in from out of town we are arranging for people to pick guys up at the different Airports and Train Stations. We will also be looking at creating some carpool groups for those coming up just for the Morning, Afternoon or the Day...
Dadstock is designed to be a day of relaxation where At Home Dads and Work At Home Dads get to have a day to be with outer dads and have a little fun drinking beer, eating food and telling stories about being Dad or anything else. Last year the timing from idea to date was way too short so we missed out on a bunch of people not being able to plan for it. This year we have months to prepare so we are looking to have a fantastic time.
Is this Heaven? Nope Just South East Wisconsin
Field of Dreams? If you host it they will come
How About A Hike in the Woods
You can visit the official Dadstock site at www.dadstock.com. If you would like to be added to the email distribution list please contact me and I will add you. These emails will be sent out with more detailed information as well as giving details to what everyone is brining... I am also busy creating an official registration form.
Oh and did I mention... IT IS FREE... Just bring some Food and Beer to share. Homebrews, Microbrews and Unique Beers preferred... We are trying to avoid the "Every Day Macro Beers"
If you would like to get involved with Dadstock by giving help or input it is always welcome.
