Angela Persechini McAlarney Annual Golf Outing September 12, 2008 This will be our fifth and final fund raiser for the scholarship drive, as due to the success of our prior outings, we are now self sustaining.
This event was set up in memory of my sister who passed away suddenly at the age of 44. Memorial scholarships are given at both Faulkner Hospital where she worked for 23 years and Blue Hills Regional Technical School where she attended High School.
If you are interested in playing this year, please fill out the form on page 7 of the newsletter, or contact either Bob or Mark Persechini for additional information.

To encourage energy efficient design in a range of building types, ASHRAE and its partnering organizations are making available for free the Advanced Energy Design Guide series.
Electronic versions of the newest book in the series, Advanced Energy Design Guides for K-12 School Buildings, as well as the existing guides on small office and small retail buildings are available for free dowload from the ASHRAE website . Future guides, including one focused on warehouses to be published this spring, will be available for free electronic download as well.
“Energy efficiency is still a vast and underutilized energy resource that is essential to the long-term survival of our world,” says ASHRAE President Kent Peterson. “Buildings consume approximately 40 percent of the primary energy in the United States. As part of our energy efficiency market deployment strategy, we want to get this valuable building guidance into the marketplace and into the hands of owners, contractors and design teams. The technology is available today to construct substantially more efficient buildings. Free distribution of the Advanced Energy Design Guide series will help educate the marketplace on how to build energy efficient buildings that use significantly less energy than those built to the minimum code requirements.”
The guides provide a sensible, hands-on approach to design through use of products that are practical and commercially available as “off-the-shelf” technology. They offer designers and contractors the tools needed for achieving a 30% energy savings compared to buildings that meet the minimum energy efficiency requirements of Standard 90.1-1999.
