Albany area residents came together recently to celebrate the fathers and father figures in their lives at Dad Fest, a community event that put the spotlight on the many ways dads make a difference.
The event, covered by NEWS10 ABC, was held in the days leading up to Father’s Day and was designed to honor not just biological fathers, but all father figures who play an important role in the lives of those around them.
Dad Fest offered the community a chance to gather, celebrate, and recognize the broad and meaningful impact that fathers and father figures have across Albany. The inclusive spirit of the event — welcoming all kinds of father figures — reflected the warmth and diversity of the local community.
It’s the kind of neighborhood celebration that reminds Albany residents of the strong community bonds that tie the region together, and a fitting way to head into Father’s Day weekend.
