WILLIAMSBURG — THE BROOKLYN STROLL CLUB, a group for fathers seeking connection, drew over 30 dads and their babies to McCarren Park in Williamsburg last month, as depicted in a New York Times feature over the weekend. The group was started in October by Joe Gonzales, a 32-year-old new father, and fosters friendships through walks and playdates. Members, like Colin Rocker, 28, value the community amid fatherhood’s isolation.
Events, which are shared via a 1,000-member Discord, sell out fast. The group recently visited Canopy, a local play space, blending stroller chats with kid-friendly music.
