Pride News Canada's Leader In African Canadian & Caribbean News, Views & Lifestyle
On dad’s big day in June, make a lasting impression on him by taking him on a memorable adventure. Here are some ideas to take your gift-giving to the next level from Mark’s, a leader in men’s casual wear and footwear:
Fishing
Surprise dad with an early morning fishing trip. He will appreciate being in the outdoors away from the hustle and bustle of life. Plan ahead and research the best fishing spots in your area – perhaps one he hasn’t been to before. To ensure he is properly outfitted for fishing, surprise him with a pair of FarWest hiking pants which have eight pockets to store all of his fishing essentials!
Cooking Class
Even if your dad isn’t a foodie, attending a cooking class together is a great way to bond with him. You’ll learn how to create a meal that rivals some of your city’s best restaurants.
Paintball
If he loves an adrenaline rush, paintball is a thrilling activity. One rule of thumb is to have very little skin exposure when playing to avoid injuries, so make sure you both dress appropriately for the conditions. Paintball can be muddy and the sun may be hot, so wear clothing that leaves little exposure to the sun and to the paintballs. Enthusiasts say they recommend something loose and light like a long sleeved t-shirt with a pair of durable pants.
VIP Camping
We are not talking about regular camping here. Spoil your dad this year with a camping trip – VIP style. There are many campgrounds that offer luxury tents and cabins with raised beds to avoid sleeping on an air mattress. Instead of hotdogs and beans, bring steaks and potatoes for grilling on the barbeque. Although this is VIP style, still expect to get a little dirty! To prepare for your trip, bring a pair of hiking boots and a warm hoodie for when the sun goes down.
Football Game
If your dad enjoys being outside, plan a game of touch football with friends and family in your local park. To keep him feeling fresh all day, surprise him with a Denver Hayes T-shirt which prevents moisture from accumulating. Your dad will appreciate taking in the outdoor air and creating new memories with the ones he loves most.
