Hi Trish, For our USMMA visit on August 27, I wanted to flag that afterward, we will head to SUNY Maritime. They will pick us up at the USMMA dock and ferry us over. I've told them to expect us to be ready 11:0011:30 timeframe. Nothing for you to do, but just wanted to keep you updated on our arrangements.

Below is a list of Approps staff and Gillibrand personal office staff who could attend, but some may end up dropping out. Also, we are trying to coordinate a visit to SUNY Maritime to see the new NSMV on the same day. Would it be possible to get a boat to take us over? If not, we can always get a vehicle.
