Friend,

One of our favorite times of the year is parade season.

We always look forward to the marching bands, the retro cars, and all the kids watching from the sidelines. But most of all, we look forward to putting a few miles on the Government Repair Truck -- and our sneakers -- and meeting you!

So far this summer, we've marched in six parades across the community (Edina! Coon Rapids! Chanhassen! Hamel! Maple Grove! Mound!). Next, we can't wait to see you at the festivities lined up through the summer, especially the Great Minnesota Get-Together. After all, everyone's invited!

We'd like to extend a heartfelt thanks to all our supporters who came out to greet us at these parades, especially the volunteers who continue to spread our message of optimism and keep the gears of this campaign well greased. This email's a shoutout to all of you!

We hope you'll keep supporting our work, and if you can afford it, chip in with any amount you can. Your contribution helps pay for the next fill-up of the Government Repair Truck.

Thanks

The DeanTeam
