About WildDad
More scars, better memories.
Our Mission
WildDad exists to help fathers build stronger connections with their children through real-world adventures and a supportive community of like-minded dads.
We believe in getting outside, taking risks, building resilience, and creating memories that last a lifetime.
Core Values
Adventure
We embrace the outdoors and encourage fathers and kids to explore, play, and discover together in nature.
Growth
We challenge kids to develop courage, leadership, and resilience through meaningful accomplishments and earned badges.
Community
We build lasting connections through local Outposts and shared experiences that go beyond surface-level friendships.
Safety
We prioritize responsible adventure where every dad looks out for their own kids and supports the group.
