Last Minute Lincoln Playgroup
Tues Nov 21 10am I believe its Sizemore Park. Located on 14th inbetween Old Cheney and Pine Lake. It sits between the YMCA and Library.
Turkey day week
With the holiday, there are no scheduled playgroups this week. If you are in Lincoln and still want to get together Tuesday morning, let me know by posting a comment below or emailing me.
Dads night out still on for Wed Nov 29 8pm, location still to be determined. Probably an Omaha site.
Don't adjust your set!
Yes, that was our own Mike Njus on WOWT Channel 6 on Saturday. Mike and his wife Dianne were on their public affairs interview show. Matt, a new dad to our group in Lincoln, saw it and said Mike did a good job.
New National Website Starting
There's a new national at-home dads web site at www.athomedad.org, not to be confused with www.athomeadad.com (which is a good site, just a bit outdated). Mike from Chicago is running this one with message boards, articles, etc for at home dads. Another national site is on the horizon in the near future. These are hopefully going to replace www.slowlane.com, which hasn't been updated since I started staying home 7 years ago. Good work, Mike.

Todays Omaha Woman Article
The article on our group and at home dads is in the current issue of Todays Omaha Woman magazine. It's a free publication found at stands around Omaha. Mike was going to try to get a few copies. Mike has also been contacted by Channel 6 (I believe) about doing an interview.
