Dads, it’s time to hit the lanes! 🎳

The next Dads outing is October 14 at 8 PM at Boardwalk Bowl. Come hang out, bowl a few games, grab some food, and spend some time with other dads in the DSACF community.

New to the Dads Group? This is a great one to jump into. You don’t need to know anyone or be a bowling pro, just come ready to have a good time and meet some fellow dads.

October 14 | 8 PM | Boardwalk Bowl

We hope to see you there!
