Hi Tony,

Thanks for your email. I hope you are doing well.

USM would like to attend this event with a total of eight people (three
staff and four students from Student Support Services and one staff member
from Veteran's Upward Bound).

Please let me know if I can provide any additional information. We are
looking forward to this event.

Thanks,

Andrew
