Campus Activities Council's Dad's Day kicking off Friday

The Campus Activities Council will sponsor a weekend-long event series starting Friday; “Kickin it with Pops”, the title of this year’s CAC Dad’s Day, will have a variety of events for Sooners, their fathers and families.

New among the events planned is CAC’s Little Boomer Bash and Petting Zoo. The bash will have activities for younger people, including carnival games, a petting zoo and other activities, according to the event schedule. There will be baby otters and baby tigers, neither of which he said would be available for petting, Student Life Associate Director Quy Nguyen said.

The Little Boomer Bash and Petting Zoo will launch three hours before the OU football game’s 2:30 p.m. kickoff Saturday at Oklahoma Memorial Union’s East lawn.

The final CAC-led event will be the CAC Dad’s Day Brunch from 10 a.m. to noon Sunday at Oklahoma Memorial Union’s Molly Shi Boren Ballroom. There will be a presentation of CAC Dad’s Day Father of the Year 2012, a performance by The Redliners and free food.
