What do you guys do on Fathers Day? Any traditions you follow.

 

For me every Fathers day weekend my Stepdad and I go fishing. Once and while camping, but there is always Bass Fishing. Now we take my kids out with us. Less fishing for us but good quality time with the Kids and him. I am hoping it is something that carries on in my family for a long time.

 

This year I am off on the Friday before so I will take him shooting that morning. Then fishing and a BBQ over the weekend.

I usually chill out with my father and the fam and go to dinner in the evening.

 

This year I'm competing in my first triathalon with my girlfriend and her father (my dad's way too out of shape to do it ). My family will be present to cheer me on and then we'll do a big dinner that evening to celebrate the day. 8-)

I usualy end up working and then we do dinner at mom and dads with the kids..

We always get together for dinner, and spend the day together. I think next yr we are going to try and start doing a BBQ at the park type of day. Since it will be my first fathers day as a dad I would like to start my own tradition.

A tradition has to start somewhere. Good luck with it.

I agree, my family used to have a lot of traditions that over the years have died down for various reasons. It's time to jump start a new one 8-)

 

What parks around here have things to do (lake, volleyball nets, etc) and allow you to bbq?

Thompson Park in Jamesburg has all of that. I believe Cheesequake does as well. Allaire State Park down by me is nice also. We spend a lot of time there. Turkey Swamp in Freehold.

I will definitely check them out. I actually forget all about Cheesequake Park which is really sad since I live less then 10 min away from it.
