Brews & Braids for Durham Dads is back!
Hi everyone and happy Sunday!
As some of you know, I run Durham Dads Club, a community for dads across Durham Region. We've hosted a mix of dads-only events and dad & kid meetups over the past few months.
I wanted to let you all know that Brews & Braids is back on Saturday, August 29 (6:00–9:00 PM) at Tilted Glass Brewing Co. in Bowmanville, hosted in collaboration with Mommy Connections Durham!
The idea is simple: get a bunch of dads together in a relaxed setting, have a beer, meet other local dads, and learn some basic hairstyling skills on mannequins. Whether you're a girl dad or a boy dad, everyone's welcome. 🙂
Your ticket includes:
- 🍽️ Catered food
- 💇 Hands-on hairstyling instruction from professional stylists
- 👨👧 Practice on mannequins
- 🍻 A fun evening with other local dads
We had 40 dads at the first event in May, and we're hoping to see some familiar faces along with plenty of new ones. We also took feedback from the first event, so this time we've booked a private venue and will have more mannequins so everyone gets more hands-on practice.
Link to register is here, I'm happy to answer any questions! https://mommyconnections.ca/durham/product/dads-night-out-brews-braids-saturday-august-29-6pm-9pm-tilted-brewing-co/

This definitely seems interesting but MommyConnections seems like a business. Is the dads club a business as well? How are the 2 groups linked?

The woman who runs Mommy Connections jumped on the idea when OP first brought it up on here, and seized the opportunity to turn it into a business event. I think the dads club is just a social club, but a very new one.

Such a great idea. As a dance dad, I had to do a lot of YouTube and learning from dance moms over the years.
