Upper Marlboro dads compete in games
Upper Marlboro dads, future dads, families looking for family fun, and anyone who enjoys some friendly competition and laughing, are all invited to attend Dad Games/DC coming in early August.
The event will be a celebration of fatherhood in a heartwarming, action-packed tribute to dads. Some of the 16 skill-testing, quirky challenges will include One Trip Grocery Challenge, Trash Can Basketball, Parallel Parking, Honey-Do List Recall, and Lawn Mower Relay. Others include Ikea Assembly, 30-minute Grill, Daughter's Hair Do, Diaper Change, and Styled by Dad Fashion show.
Some challenges involve both kids and dads. The Dad/Kid Capcut Film Festival will have the pair directing, shooting, and editing their own short films. The Slime Chef Battle will have kids and dads creating colorful slime in head-to-head showdowns; the Kid Business Plan Showdown will have dads pitching "businesses" that their kids have dreamed up. There will also be a Dad-Kid Goalie Challenge, and one where dads teach their kids how to tie a proper necktie.
Individual general admission will be $25, team challenges will cost $100, each individual challenge has a fee ranging from $28 to $29 and each category winner will receive $500.
Sometimes spectators who attend events like this go to local print shops and get some banner printing done to have funny colorful banners to support their favorite competitors.
Dad Games/ DC will take place from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm at 5300 Crain Highway, Saturday, August 9th.
