Dad's Adventure

Dads Adventure

Dads Adventure, Inc. is dedicated to fostering the development of role models for new fathers in their communities, neighborhoods and families by working to put out positive, constructive information and messages, as well as tools and resources that help them do the job.

Dads Adventure publishes Hit the Ground Crawling, Dads Adventure Magazine and Crash Course for New Dads to help men get the most out of fatherhood and operates DadsAdventure.com so all new fathers have a place to connect and get answers to their questions.

Started in 1995 by father of four and brother to 12, Greg Bishop, Dads Adventure also proudly sponsors Boot Camp for New Dads, a non-profit orientation workshop for dads-to-be.

Boot Camp for New Dads

Boot Camp for New Dads (BCND) was created in 1990, when four fathers got together at the local hospital and started a workshop in which they oriented dads-to-be on fatherhood. They brought along their babies to make it real, and no women over 2′ tall were allowed.

After several months, the dads-to-be returned with their own babies to orient the next group of men, starting an ongoing cycle. In 1995 BCND started partnering with hospitals across the U.S and in 1998 was turned into a non-profit organization.

Today with over 200,000 graduates, BCND is the nation’s largest program for fathers, operating in 260 communities across 43 states, the U.S. Army, Navy and Air Force, and expanding internationally. For more information please visit BCND.org or for locations,click here.
