DFF Memo

Out of Commission 

Pretty crummy day here at the DFF.  After having our "22Q Mystery Bus" dropped off for an annual maintenance/service a few weeks ago, we encountered major engine failure. Our pride and joy was precariously stranded on a highway bridge. After being ceremoniously towed to the dealership, we were informed that an improper oil change had destroyed our engine. This is a devastating hit to the Foundation, as Monday we take to the Missouri State Capital for the "22Q Rally in the Rotunda" and later, a visit to Arkansas to honor McKay Gregson. We will of course still be attending both events but we won't be in our rolling mobile awareness campaign! We hate to disappoint any families who were excited to "get on the bus for 22q". However, we WILL make plans to visit Missouri again before the summer/fall comes to an end.

Having said all of this, We REALLY hope any friends or families within driving distance of Jeff City, MO... PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE consider joining us. WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW MORE THAN EVER! You can help us compensate for the awareness we will no doubt lose due to this unfortunate turn of events.

So far, it seems the dealership will be working double-time to fully rectify the issue. This means dropping a brand new engine in our "22Q Mystery Tour Bus". This will take several weeks to complete. Please cross your fingers and toes, and help to do your part while we are operating without the worlds only mobile awareness campaign for 22q!

Optimistically yours,
-Michelle Breedlove~Sells
Executive Director, The Dempster Family Foundation
