CORPUS CHRISTI, Tx — If you're still looking for a way to celebrate dad this Father's Day weekend, organizers say the fourth annual Dynamite Dads event has a little bit of everything.
The free event runs Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Antonio Garcia Arts and Education Center and features a BBQ cookoff, arts and crafts, games, food, and more than a dozen community vendors.
Phi De La Garza, one of the event's organizers, said the celebration was born out of a simple observation.
"You know we don't really hardly get anything for dads. So I said, you know, let me look into that."
De La Garza said the event is all about celebrating father figures while giving families a chance to have some fun together. Attendees can also enter to win door prizes, including a BBQ grill pit.
I will be one of the judges of the BBQ cookoff competition — so if you think your steak has what it takes, now you know what's at stake.
