Patch Picks:  Ways to Show Dad You Care on Father’s Day!

  • Round House BBQ
    The Scene: Enjoy a manly meal with dad at Round House BBQ, where tasty smoked meats and make-from-scratch sides keep customers coming back for more. With a choice of five sauces for their fall-off-the-bone ribs, everyone’s BBQ predilection is met. Their vast menu includes more than just ribs, enticing foodies with selections such as beef brisket, pulled pork, and slow smoked chicken. Let the lip-smacking begin with a delicious Father’s Day dinner at Round House BBQ.

  • The Scene: Is your dad an outdoorsman?  If so, spend some quality time at Elizabeth Park, where a day of fishing in warm, sunny weather is the perfect locale for some quality time with dad. This historic landmark is a refuge for relaxing day, where fishing can be accompanied by lunch in their large picnic area, as well as cycling, skating, or any other popular activities at Elizabeth Park.
  • Parkway Lanes
    The Scene: Make two gifts out of one location by enjoying a couple games at Parkway Lanes, and then hitting up the Bowler’s Depot PRO Shop at the alley. Whether a novice or a pro, bowling with dad is a great way to spend Father’s Day afternoon, and the purchase of bowling apparel or accessories from the pro shop would be a great accompaniment to a fun day.
  • ACO Hardware
    The Scene: For Mr. Fixer-upper, the do-it-yourself dad will appreciate a gift card from ACO Hardware, Michigan’s Hometown Hardware Store since 1946. Known for outstanding personalized service, everyday low prices, and brand names, dad will be able to purchase products for home improvement, ranging from beautification products such as paint and outdoor living to electrical, plumbing, and other tools for repair. “More Than a Hardware Store!”, a gift card from ACO will aid in any project around the house.
  • Trenton Athletic Club
    The Scene: Help dad stay healthy and get in shape with a membership to Trenton Athletic Club. With offers such as a complementary fitness orientation, fully equipped and ultra-clean facility, and no waiting for equipment, this gym membership can’t be beat. Trenton Athletic Club members get unlimited use of the strength-training center, cardio equipment, training center, whirlpool and saunas, and group fitness classes taught by certified instructors.
