Windy City Dads

WINDY CITY DADS have been given a block of reserved seats for this advance screening where some of our members and family can enjoy in exchange to help promote this film.

Before you RSVP, please read through all of the following list of EXPECTATIONS to participate in this sponsored event...

We invite you and your dad friend or partner (no kids at this one please) to join us for FREE Advance Screening of this film. We have been given 4 guaranteed seats for our WINDY CITY DADS group to enjoy. Everyone including guests must check-in prior to 6:15PM and participate in our GROUP PHOTO organized by our Event Hosts. We ask every family to upload minimum of 4 photo's to our meetup site before the event is over, of your family enjoying the event so we can share with our sponsor as a thank you for this opportunity.

Guest check-in table is usually placed near ticket collection; this is where we usually meetup to get a group photo. Parking and 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 "Windy City Dads" and using hashtag #WINDYCITYDADS 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 Windy City Dads 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 Windy City Dads Group shirt, you can buy it online from our Merchandise Store (to be launched soon). 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. Once you RSVP, no changes can be made, your crew must attend -- no exceptions! If by chance you're no-show or change your RSVP (without approval), than you will loose the privilege to be included with any future advance screenings. Our waitlist is for the organizer to use, only if event sponsor increases our head count, if this happens then Brian Dykes will reach out to members via meetup messenger, so make sure your meetup notifications are turned ON so that you won't miss out.

Thanks for your understanding!

We invite you to come out & join some of your fellow WINDY CITY DADS members for a new meetup series called DADS GETTING COFFEE (& Breakfast). This specific event is intended for DADS ONLY where we can hang out together, in a kid free zone, have adult conversations while building friendships and talk all things fatherhood related.

Each month we pick a different place for coffee and breakfast to meetup on the weekend... but would love to see this happen even more if there are some other guys who want to step up and organize in your area too, could be a great way to connect with our members living all over Chicagoland city and suburbs. Even if we had several meetups on same day/time all over area for guys to choose would be awesome!

This time around we are going to meetup @ Andys Cafe in Des Plaines. We willl do separate checks to make it easier then everyone can leave when they need too. Please RSVP and arrive 15 minutes early as they dont sit party until everyone is there.

RSVP if you plan on joining us here!
