It might seem like a lot, especially since the sentence does not seem to be very long — a prepositional phrase, a phrase that will be modifying the preposition and its object. The object of the preposition is usually the word that is after the preposition. For example, in the sentence, the word During is the preposition, and the object is the month of May.
