Teasley ALL PRO DAD – Thank you! Thanks for putting together. It was a good time.

Our principal was pleased with our large turnout and wants to set up a meeting to discuss ways that Dads can get involved at our school. My goal this year is that not only will the Dads be more equipped for their kids and families, but that that spirit would spill over into the school as well.

I am looking forward to continued opportunity to see, firsthand, the wonderful impact of the All Pro Dad's Day program on families in our school and beyond. It has been such a blessing to me, not only in how it has helped shape and guide my family, but also in the relationships, friendships and support I have gained from the other Dads in my chapter. I know I am a better husband, father,...

I would like to thank you for all of this. All Pro Dad is well-recognized in Callahan, FL. Callahan Elementary has been holding breakfasts for 7 years now. The amazing thing is that we don’t have to work hard at it. The teacher committee plans the breakfast and a little activity for the kids and dads, and I read over the material and present it. Every month, we have at least 30 dads and 40...

The first [All Pro Dad’s Day] we came to 3 years ago helped me and her so much, we had just moved to Central months before that (in the middle of the school year her 3rd grade year) and she was having a hard time adjusting to the new and much bigger school than she had been used to. That day and that breakfast was one of the first things I can remember helping her turn the page on the new...

I had one dad say that he was gone 100 day out of the year, and that it was his first All Pro Dad breakfast, and that he'd be back for all the rest. He urged that it was very important what we were doing, and that we were helping him grow into the dad that he wants to be. It was a very cool thing.

One little fifth grade girl came to the microphone in front of 250 people just to tell why her Dad was the most awesome Dad in the world after their 15 second hug. Her Dad's name was Dewayne and he was a pretty big guy! She said, "He is the most awesome dad in the whole wide world just because he is my Dad!" Dewayne just buried his head in his hands and was almost convulsing as he wept in...
