  was held in Vancouver, Washington.

  父親節的推廣

  The president of the Chicago branch of the Lions' Club, Harry Meek, is said to have celebrated

  the first Father's Day with his organization in 1915; and the day that they chose was the third Sunday in June, the closest date to Meek's own birthday!

  Regardless

  of when the first true Father's Day occurred, the strongest promoter of the holiday was Mrs. Bruce John Dodd of Spokane, Washington. Mrs. Dodd felt that she had an outstanding

  father. He was a veteran of the Civil War. His wife had died young, and he had raised six children without their mother.
