August 30, 2025 • 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM
📍Rotary Fitness Trail
640 NW 27th Lane, Okeechobee, FL 34972
Join Healthy Start for a special edition of our T.E.A.M. Dad Workshop — Critter Quest! Dads and their children are invited on a hands-on outdoor scavenger hunt that encourages exploration, teamwork, and bonding. From spotting bugs to following animal tracks, this adventure is all about learning and growing together.
T.E.A.M. stands for Teach, Encourage, Affirm, and Model — four pillars of strong fatherhood that guide every workshop experience. This free event offers a fun and meaningful way for dads to connect with their children and with other fathers in the community.
Comfortable clothing and closed-toe shoes are recommended. Light snacks and water will be provided.
Let’s build stronger families, one adventure at a time.
