West Seattleite Eric Renn is hoping stay-at-home dads in the area will want to join a group he's formed to develop "a resource and community for stay-at-home dads."



Fathers who are primary caregiver in their family, and other involved dads are welcome.

"We believe the involvement of a father in the life of his child is beneficial to the child and, ultimately, society as a whole," said Renn in an email. "We invite all involved fathers to network with us. This is the place to meet other dads in West Seattle."

The group meets each Monday and Thursday at 9 a.m. at the Hiawatha Playfield Playground, 2700 California Ave. S.W., or contact Renn at (206) 423-9253.
