Mentions a trusted reference (Topaz)

Hi Bob,

My name is Thomas and I’m a high school student and a Venturer with the 6th Richmond Hill Scout Group.  Topaz, a former classmate of yours, actually suggested I get in touch.

I’ve read about your exciting work with NASA.  Our Venturer group is having a career night, and I think your insights would be a great fit.  

Would you be available for a small 15-20 minute presentation to our group next month?  If so, would any of these times work?

- Next Wednesday (9/10) all day

- Thursday (9/11) any time after 5pm 

- The Wednesday after (9/17) after 5pm 

If those don’t work, just let me know — we can work around your schedule. 

Thanks,

Thomas
