We’re not sure what that reason is, but dads have certainly earned the right to be in a class of their own. What your father probably wants is a nap, so make sure he gets that before and after (but definitely not during) these dad-worthy gift ideas.
Step Back in Time at the Ballpark
If there’s one thing dads love, it’s reminiscing about the good ol’ days. This Father’s Day, transport your dad back in time with the Edmonton Riverhawks’ Retro Dad’s Day June 16. The event promises a nostalgic trip down memory lane with a variety of attractions.
The Edmonton Antique Car Club and the Edmonton Classic Sports Car Club will show off classic vehicles, while the Grove City Chorus barbershop quartet sing sweet songs and the Riverhawks’ players sport classic Trappers jerseys on the field. The teal jerseys will then be auctioned off with proceeds benefiting the Edmonton Riverhawks Community Foundation, ensuring your Father’s Day celebration has a positive impact on the community.
And since it’s Sunday, the Barking Bleachers will be open — this new, dog-friendly seating section on the third baseline means you can bring along your furry friend to join in the fun. It’s a great way to combine family time with some of dad’s favourite things.
Adventures in the Sky
For the adventurous dad, a tour with the Edmonton Soaring Club might just be the ticket. Offering glider flights over the picturesque landscapes of Alberta, this experience gets you high in the air like no other, and the perfect bonding opportunity. Surprise dad with an experience gift he can check off his bucket list!
Raise a Glass with Brewery Tours
Finally, if your dad enjoys a good brew, why not take him on a brewery tour? Edmonton boasts several excellent breweries where you can learn about the brewing process, sample a variety of craft beers, and enjoy some quality time together. It’s a relaxed and enjoyable way to celebrate.
This Father’s Day, go beyond the typical golf balls and barbecue tools and gift your dad something special like an experience. Happy Father’s Day to all the incredible dads out there!
