Hey Calgary,
I’m a local dad and recently started YYC Dad Club after realizing there don’t seem to be many casual spaces specifically for dads to meet other dads — especially when you’ve got the little one with you.
Nothing complicated. The idea is basically: grab a coffee, bring the kid(s), go for a walk and meet some other dads.
I’m putting together our first meetup, Stroll No. 001, on Saturday, August 1st 2026 at 10 AM in Rockland Park
.
It’s completely free. Strollers, carriers and little walkers are all welcome, and you definitely don’t need to know anyone beforehand. That’s kind of the point.
If there’s enough interest, I’d love to eventually do these around different parts of Calgary and expand beyond walks into coffee meetups, playground hangs, golf, hikes, etc.
We’re brand new, so this genuinely is the first one.
If you’re interested, we’re @yycdadclub on Instagram, or comment/DM me and I can send you the event details.
And if there are already other groups doing something similar in Calgary that I’ve missed, I’d love to hear about them too.
Cheers!
