Dads Day is a day of outdoor recreation on the shores of Lake Minnetonka to build camaraderie and connection between parents of children with heart disease. There is an option to stay overnight and extend the fun to Sunday.
Registration
In 2023, Dads Day occurred on August 5th. The next date for this annual event will be released in early 2024. Please contact info@campodayin.org if you have any questions or to be added to our heart family email list to receive future applications and opportunities to gather.
Any dad of a heart child in 12th grade or younger is eligible to attend Dads Day, even if you or your child have never attended an Odayin program in the past. Camp Odayin welcomes transgender, non-binary, and gender non-conforming parents to attend Dads Day or the Moms Retreat.
The cost to attend Dads Day is $25 per person, or whatever a family chooses to pay. Payment options within the registration start at $0 per person to ensure that cost is not a barrier to joining us. Families who choose to pay more than $25 receive a tax receipt for their additional contribution.
