On Saturday, December 4, Missouri PTA sponsored and participated in an All Pro Dads Rams family event at the Russell training center in St. Louis. It was a fun filled day with over 1000 in attendance. Activities, games and motivation was the key to the day. Not to mention some personal motivation from Aneanus Williams, alumni of the Rams, asking Dads to pledge 1 minute a day (daily email), 1 hour a month (an All Pro Dads meeting) to commit to their children.
Events like this are being planned to engage males in the life of school children across the state of Missouri. "Men are Parents too." said Missouri PTA President Wendy Jackson, when asked about the event. Missouri PTA is not your Mother's PTA, we are no longer just organizing parties, or baking cookies, we are organizing events such as this to increase male involvement.
