Going Public II
Looks like we'll have a listing in next Fridays edition of Hubbub in the Journal-Star for our April 19 dads nite out. I am also trying to set up a time to meet with Erin Andersen to do a story on our group. Hopefully next week we can meet. Still waiting to hear from Mike on an Omaha site for May 3rd with contact with OWH to follow.

Cards
I have just placed an order for personal type cards with contact info included. Let me know if you need some to pass out to other dads you run into.

April 19th site secured
I have reserved the upstairs lounge at Legends Bar at 84th & Holdrege, Lincoln. Wed April 19, 8pm. Mike is still working on a location for Omaha. Looks like that date will be May 3, Wednesday. More updates to come.

Going Public
I am working on a press release type announcement to send to newspapers, local kids type papers, etc.. I think that a meeting date/place should be included in the document. I am thinking about reserving the upstairs at Legends again. What do you guys think. I'll shoot for a Wed nite again. How about April 19th. Mike, can you work something together for the next Wed nite in Omaha? April 26th. I have been to the Brewsky's in west Omaha and I think they have a seperate section you can reserve. Or if you have any other ideas, can you check them out? these meetings will be informal meet/greet type events, dads only, say around 8pm.
Steve, any ideas?

Dad's Night Out
Next Dads night out is Wed March 22 8pm at Jackson's Pub in Gretna. It is on HWY 31 north of Nebraska Crossings and south of the town of Gretna. I believe it is next to a Runza. Steve, let me know if you want to ride together. If anyone else is interested in meeting, let me or Mike know via email.

Spring Break
For some reason I hate calling getting the kids together "playdates". Does anyone have any other name to use? So far, none of our schedules match up for all the kids. Mike, we can get the young ones together next week. I'll call you in the next couple of days. Steve, would you be up for a Sat/Sun outing with our older kids to SAC/Morrill Hall type of thing?

It looks like Wednesday nights might work best for another night out? Mike, can you come up with a place in Omaha? How about we shoot for March 22. Steve, we can carpool if you like.

KC Trip
I had a really good time in KC on Saturday. We had a total of ten guys do the tour of Boulevard and a Mexican restaurant afterword. I stayed at the Holiday Inn on the Plaza to check it out as a possible hotel for the convention in November. It seemed to be a good place. I'm hoping our group will grow and we could have more than just me go down next time.

SAC Museum Trip
LPS is on spring break March 20-24th. If you guys could get me the dates for each school break, that would be great. I'm thinking meet at the SAC around 10am, lunch around noon. If the weather is nice we could picnic at Mahoney State Park. I'll update probably next week, after my trip to KC. Hopefully, I'll have an update on convention planning from KC.

First Night Out Review
We had a good time at Legends last week. It was good to meet Steve personally and get together with Mike. We should try to plan these monthly and alternate between Omaha/Lincoln. How do Thursday nights work?

First Dads Night Out
Now Playing: Our First Dad's Night Out
We have planned a first night out. Wednesday Feb 22 8pm Legends Bar & Grill 84th & Holdrege Lincoln Upstairs... I reserved the upstairs at Legends, it's no cost, a couple of recliners and tables... Mike from Ralston is coming down and Steve from Lincoln, along with myself will be there. If anyone else is interested, let me know via email or post a comment below. We can meet and go over some ideas for helping this group grow.

Chad, you posted a comment earlier, stop by or let me know if you can make it.

Spread the word to any SAHD out there.
