Marspec Christmas Party

The Marspec team held its annual Christmas lunch on Wednesday, December 24, 2008. Marspec executives did a great job of spoiling us this year with food catered by Wintzells Oyster House and
Saucy Q Bar B Q, followed by desert from Pollman’s bakery. Kay Turner, Controller, got everyone in the Christmas spirit by having several colleagues read holiday passages aloud. My favorite passage was by Dr. Suess, from The Grinch Who Stole Christmas: “….then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more?” Mr. Tom Kelly, President, made some inspiring comments and special announcements about the ending year of 2008 and the New Year of 2009 before passing out a generous gift for each and every employee in the company.

On behalf of everyone at Marspec, we wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Ole Miss Chooses Tower Tech for New Expansion

The University of Mississippi selected Tower Tech cooling towers for the new law school building under construction on the Oxford campus.

Tower Tech was selected for it's overall energy efficiency characteristics due primarily to its ability to match its cooling capacity to the load demand. This advanced technology greatly reduces the amount of electricity consumed during the summer months and ultimately helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions at the power plant level.

The installing contractor liked the fast installation of the Tower Tech cooling towers - each tower can be lifted from the flatbed truck and set in place in about an hour.
