Time to Remember Dad

Kissimmee, FL: The Osceola Council on Aging is celebrating Father’s Day with their annual Dinners for Dads event. Many fathers find themselves alone on this national day of recognition but not so at the Osceola Council on Aging’s Dining Club. A lunch party with music and dancing is planned for Friday, June 18th from 9am until noon along with none other than a ‘best tie’ contest among the fathers. Persons interested in participating can register to attend the Dining Club party by contacting 407-847-2144.

The event also serves as a fundraiser for the Council. Individual or corporate sponsors are being sought for Dinners for Dads. You or your business can sponsor a Father’s Day Dinner for $10 while raising funds for the Council.

“We all remember wonderful times with our fathers and the influence they had on our lives,” recalls Beverly Hougland, CEO of the Council on Aging. “This is a special time when we can give something back especially to those who find themselves alone,” she continued.

The Council on Aging provided services to more than 76,000 clients in 2009 and as our economy is further strained, dwindling resources and greater needs prove challenging. Providing a special day for fathers brings some sunshine into what might otherwise be a lonely time in their life. As we do each year, the Council on Aging wishes a happy Father’s Day to all the ‘dads’ in our community and encourages families to remember their father on their special day.

Donations for the Father’s Day event can be mailed to Dinners for Dads, Osceola Council on Aging, 700 Generation Point, Kissimmee, FL 34744. If you are interested in sponsoring a Father’s Day Dinner for someone you know or for a complete stranger, please contact the Council on Aging office at 407-483-1498.
