The All Pro Dad Father & Kids Experience will be held at the Winter Park Fieldhouse on Saturday, April 12, 2008, from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. The gathering is presented by Thrivent Financial for Lutherans and is being hosted by All Pro Dad Spokesman and Vikings Defensive Coordinator Leslie Frazier and former Assistant Coach Dean Dalton.
Founded by Family First, the All Pro Dad fatherhood program helps to educate fathers on the best ways to become an “All Pro Dad.” Fathers are encouraged to bring their children to the event, where they will learn fatherhood tips and participate in special activities with their kids, while rotating through football-themed learning stations located around the field.
"Thousands of men around the world are becoming better husbands and fathers by joining our All Pro Dad team,” said Tony Dungy, Indianapolis Colts head coach and national spokesperson for All Pro Dad. “To become an All Pro Dad, we encourage men to spend one minute a day reading our free daily email, The Play of the Day, one hour a month participating in an All Pro Dad's Day breakfast, and one day a year taking part in our All Pro Dad Father and Kids Experience."
"Thrivent Financial for Lutherans is a huge fan of All Pro Dad. We are excited to team-up with the Minnesota Vikings to sponsor this event that helps build stronger relationships between dads and their kids," noted Joy Peterson, Thrivent Financial for Lutheran Community Services, Manager, Twin Cities Region.
