What we’re about
WINDY CITY DADS is a diverse and welcoming community for Chicago-land fathers living in the city and suburbs. We believe in active parenting, shared experiences and building a supportive network. Whether you are a new dad or seasoned pro, join us as we navigate fatherhood together.
Please note: this group is strictly for Dads, we understand sometimes wives will join for their significant others but we encourage all fathers to join our group on their own accord, it takes few minutes to setup their own meetup profile. We want this group to be a comfortable place for all Dads to learn and talk about anything dad related.
Our Windy City Dads Group is FREE to join and attend meetup events. Some meetups will have a cost to participate but everyone can pay their own way is what we found out works the best.
For those of you on social media, we also ask that you share your evebt engagement photos on your personal accounts like Facebook taging our "Windy City Dads" so we can engage 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 help us get more sponsored event opportunities.
FYI ~ When you 1st join and setup your Meetup profile (or if you reinstall Meetup on your device), please note you will be asked by Meetup to pay $9.99/month to upgrade to "Meetup+". You do NOT need to pay for this, because our group is FREE. When this offer from Meetup pops up, just hit the X in the top corner to decline it.
Upcoming events (1)
See all- Dads Night Out @ KBBQ (Palatine)KBBQ, Palatine, IL
We invite you to come out & join us for another DADS NIGHT OUT with some of your fellow WINDY CITY DADS members. This specific event is for DADS ONLY where we can hang out together, in a kid free zone, have adult conversations.
We are going try and start a new series of monthly meetups, where we choose a different place to have dinner together at various restaurants all over the area. Our plan is to start off doing this once per month in the Northwest Suburbs, 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 night all over the area for guys to choose would be awesome!
This time around we are going to meetup for dinner and drinks @ KBBQ in Palatine. If you’ve never been to Korean BBQ, it’s a fun expeience where they bring you the meats and you cook it at the table. We willl do separate checks to make it easier then everyone can leave when they need too.
RSVP if you plan on joining us here!
