What an incredible turnout at yesterday’s All Pro Dad Breakfast! We welcomed more than 85 fathers and father figures and over 90 children for a morning of food, family, and meaningful connection.

Our guest speaker, Chad Stoltz, shared a powerful message about showing up, staying active in our children’s lives, and pushing through the difficult days so we can continue being there for our children when they need us most.

Our theme was honesty, highlighted through the book *The Sloth Who Slowed Us Down*. Families were reminded that being honest isn’t always easy and that sometimes we need to slow down and think before we speak.

A special thank-you to our book sponsor, Community Foundation for Perry County, for helping make this event possible and supporting local fathers and families!

We would also like to thank Junction City Elementary for allowing us to hold this wonderful event at their school and for helping us create a memorable morning for these families!

Strong Fathers. Strong Families. Strong Communities. ❤️

What a fantastic morning at Duncan Falls Elementary yesterday for our All Pro Dad Breakfast! ☀️🥞

We were honored to welcome Greg Haberfield as our guest speaker. Greg shared an important reminder that the greatest memories we create with our children don't come from the things we buy them, but from the time we spend with them. Being present, staying involved, and making time for our kids are what truly make a lasting impact. ❤️

A special THANK YOU to:

👏 Greg Haberfield for sharing such a meaningful message with our families.

🤝 Jamie Harrop, our community partner, for helping make this event possible!

📚 MA Dutro CPA, our generous book sponsor, for supporting literacy and helping us put books into the hands of our families!

And, of course, thank you to Duncan Falls Elementary and every dad, father figure, and child who joined us. Your participation is what makes these mornings so special!

The greatest gift we can give our children is our time. 💙
