We're looking for our Dad of the Year!

 

Does your Dad bungee jump? Does he cook amazing meals? Is he a champion Pokemon Trainer? Does he pick his nose and wipe it on the sofa cushions?

National Family Week

While being a dad is a tough job, no father expects a reward other than the satisfaction of a job well done. But here at Dads Space (www.dads-space.com), we do think that great parenting should be recognized – and so we’re proud to announce the launch of the Dad of the Year Awards, in association with National Family Week (25th - 31st May).

So how do you enter?

We’re asking you to nominate great dads that you know, by telling us a great story about what makes your chosen dad special. The Judges will be looking for stories of dads who go above and beyond the call of duty to make a real difference in their children’s lives – stories of courage, stories of sacrifice, and even just stories that are side-splittingly funny.

We’d like each story to be between 150 – 200 words, although longer or shorter entries won’t be penalised. All you have to do is write your story in the entry form and send it to us. Don't forget to let us know who you're nominating! 

The entry closing date is the 27th April 2009, when the top four entries, as judged by Dads-Space.com, will be put forward to the official judging panel. The dad that wins the vote of the judges will be invited, along with his family, to attend the Family Week Picnic in Regents Park, London on the first day of National Family Week (Monday 25th May 2009) for the official announcement with a number of VIP guests.

Good luck with your entries, and remember that no matter how big or small their contribution, in our book, all great dads deserve a pat on the back now and then.
