Dad will love anything you get him…even if it’s just a hug and a hearty Happy Fathers day greeting!!  But if you need a few gift ideas, here is a list for different “dad” personalities:

Outdoorsman: Is Dad a fan of the rod & reel? Hook a gift that any angler will enjoy. Find out what reel he needs for his next fishing expedition, or put together a new tackle box filled with the lures and hooks specific to the type of fish he tends to go after.

Sports fan: Score tickets to a game for his favorite professional team and have a nice outing with him. There are many different types of sports memorabilia available also. For example, you can purchase cufflinks made from tiny pieces of wood from stadium seats.

Do-it-yourselfer: A gift certificate to his favorite home renovation retailer just might fit the bill, or a subscription to a home remodeling book or magazine series. Think about a tool he has been dreaming about (that new belt sander or miter saw). Go out and purchase it and watch his face light up.

Golfer: Dads who golf may appreciate a trip to a renowned course to play. Or organize a game for his favorite golf buddies and him. Make sure you include the “19th hole” at his favorite restaurant or bar.

Gourmet dad: If Dad is a gourmet cook and handy in the kitchen, put together a gift basket with fresh ingredients and innovative cooking gizmos. Another creative idea is to make reservations at a restaurant owned and operated by a favorite chef.

The thrill seeker: If Dad is comfortable racing his Harley down mountain roads or parachuting out of a plane, tie that into a gift that fuels his thrill-seeking edge. Organize a bungee-jumping trip, or spend a thrill-seeking day at an area amusement park.

I hope you and dad have great weekend!!
