10 Fun Things To Do For Father's Day In Brentwood

great-father%27s-day-ideas.jpgFather's Day is Sunday, June 17th. Do you have a great Father's Day idea yet?

Drumroll, please....

Here are our TOP 10 FUN THINGS TO DO FOR FATHERS DAY in Brentwood and Nashville!

1. Feed his inner carnivore, preferably with steak or BBQ. Here are a few great meat-eatin' Nashville restaurants for memorable Father's Day meals.

2. Whatever floats his boat! Take Dad for a relaxing day on the water. We have a terrific list of boat rentals and canoes in Middle Tennessee.

3. Dust off his golf clubs and invite him to Harpeth Hills Golf Course at Percy Warner Park. Gift certificates are now on sale at all Metro Nashville's public golf courses!

4. Celebrate his big catch. Here are all our articles on fly fishing rivers near Brentwood and Middle Tennessee, along with information about local fly shops, two Nashville fly fishing clubs, and our pick for the best Tennessee trout water guidebook.

5. Go ahead, make his day! Let him blow off some steam at a nearby gun range. We have details on indoor and outdoor firing ranges in Nashville.

6. Pimp his ride with a car detailing at Smith Brothers Soft Cloth Car Wash. Follow with a visit to Nashville's Lane Motor Museum, where dads get in FREE every Father's Day.

Here's my personal review of the Lane Motor Museum, which even I (a total non-car-lover) loved!

7. Treat him to a FREE outdoor concert at Brentwood's Crockett Park amphitheater. Or, wind up the mountain for a Bluebird Cafe-style concert at Brentwood's Dyer Observatory.

8. Plan the ultimate camping trip with Brentwood's ultimate man store, REI. Did you know REI lets you rent outdoor equipment before you buy?

9. Hit the historic Civil War trail, starting at Nashville's newly restored Fort Negley and heading south to Franklin. (Download a Civil War map or pick up a free copy at Visitor centers.) The Battle of Nashville Preservation Society sells a comprehensive book with photographs and driving directions for 25 historic sites in Nashville.

10. Let him bask in the sun at one of Nashville's swimming pools or beaches. Surprise him with a new pair of sunglasses, a fluffy blue beach towel and a cooler of icy cold drinks. Aaaah.

Great ideas, would like to share this Fathers day contest with others, Fathers Day Craziest Tie Contest! You can win an autographed copy of the book, Love is a Verb by award winning author Dr Gary Chapman and there are 2 cash prizes of $50 each.
Dads send in a picture of yourself wearing your craziest or ugliest tie and ladies, encourage your husband to submit a photo of THAT tie you absolutely hate, Yeah, you know the one!
For more info and to take part check out this link –

Why not bake him a batch of his favorite cookie instead?

Or provide a service for him, like ironing shirts, cleaning the car or giving him a weekend off from cutting the grass?

Also, don't forget about free local concerts on Father's Day. Brentwood, TN has a fabulous outdoor concert series at Crockett Park with top notch entertainment tonight at 7 pm.

How about asking him to take a walk with you at a beautiful local park? Pick up a couple of gourmet-style sandwiches from your grocery store deli and pack them in a cooler bag with a couple of his favorite sodas. Enjoy a picnic together after you walk!

I am a parent of young children now, but I can only imagine how touched I will be, 20 years from now, to have any of them choose to spend time with me.

The money and the event is not important. He will love whatever you do, so long as you do it together!
