May 7 named Dale and Wan'Dale Robinson Day in Frankfort

It may be Derby Day for most in Kentucky, but in Frankfort, it’s Dale and Wan’Dale Robinson Day.

Following superstar high school and college football careers, Wan’Dale Robinson was just drafted No. 43 overall in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft. His father, Dale, is an author, mentor, professional speaker, and owner of the GURU Fitness franchise. More importantly, Dale’s success comes after spending years in federal prison on drug charges.

The father’s story is one of redemption, while the son’s highlights the benefits of choosing your own path to success. Both are wildly inspirational.
