Topping out Oconee Hall

The renovations of the highest-sitting building on the Pendleton campus of Tri-County Technical College have reached the midpoint.  Yesterday a beam was hoisted into place to mark the halfway and, according to Tech’s Mandy Elmore, it was a sight to behold.  Harper General contractors have a $22M budget to do the job.  Included in the work are renovations to the auditorium, named for a Tech friend, the late Marshall Parker, a prominent public official from Oconee County.
