Chicago Dads Group

On behalf of Netflix’s Ultraman Rising, more info is below and you can watch the trailer here.

We invite you and your family (or come alone) to join us at FREE! Advance Movie Screening of this film. We have total of 20 guaranteed seats for our Chicago Dads Group to enjoy. Before you RSVP, please read through all of the following expectations to fully participate in this sponsored event...

Everyone including guests must check-in prior to 6:00PM and participate in our GROUP PHOTO organized by our Event Hosts. We also ask every family to upload 3-4 photo's to our meetup site before the event is over, of your family enjoying the event so that we can share with our sponsor as a THANK YOU for this great opportunity. Parking & concessions are your responsibility.

For those of you on social media, we also ask that you share your family photos on your personal accounts like Facebook taging our "Chicago Dads Group" and using hashtag #CITYDADS so we can share, like and comment, which will help broaden our social media reach in an effort to expand our audience and ultimately get more members to join our meetup group. By doing so will also help us get more fun sponsored event opportunities.

Most importantly, we ask that ALL our members who attend our sponsored advance movie screenings, to WEAR their BLUE Chicago Dads Group shirt to the meetup, which does a few things; helps our members be more clearly recognized and the sponsor can tell which group we are with, plus it looks amazing in our group photo and member engagement photos that we know our sponsors really likes seeing too. If you don't have your own Chicago Dads Group shirt, you can buy it online from our Amazon store for $20. We feel this is a small ask that builds member engagement and appreciation for our sponsored opportunities. It’s a good thing to do.

ONLY!!! RSVP (+Guests) if you are 100% committed to going, checking in on-time and fully participate as noted above, since we don't want any seats to be empty. If you are a no-show, than you may loose the privilege to be included with any future advance screenings. Once you RSVP, no changes can be made, your crew must attend -- no exceptions!

We invite you to come out & join us for our 9th Annual FATHERS EVE with some of your fellow Chicago Dads Group members.

This year we have decided to organize a Family Outing to celebrate FATHERS EVE together @ Bear Paw Adventure Park in Caledonia, Wisconsin, which is about 1 hour drive from Chicago and looks like a fun place to gather for the day and night.
This place has something for all ages, to name a few... huge beach, swimming lake with lots water inflatables, multi level ropes course, slides, bounce pillow, paintball targets, lazer tag, food/beverages plus evening Drone Show!

GROUP DISCOUNT:
Bear Paw Adventure Park has provided our group with a generous 40% off Adventure Park passes, including both land and water adventures when using promo code CHIDADS24 at checkout. You can certainly use the promo code on the day of our event, but if there is a specific session that you would like (for Adventure Island or the Ropes Course) you may want to purchase passes ahead of time. Although they won't sell out for the day, there is a chance that some of the sessions on a Saturday will be very full or close to selling out. This is typically weather dependent as they are an outdoor venue.
