New and Old at Berry College

Summer at Berry used to mean a deserted campus, where only the deer roamed and the tractors roared.  Now you find a plethora of camps that enjoy the Berry beauty while golfing, swimming, volleying, running, learning about leadership and healthy lifestyles. For the very young, there are Kindermusik camps and classes from which to choose.  On the Mountain campus you will find Winshape Camps and horse camp. 

Students stay in the summer to work campus jobs when finding employment at home is difficult. They also take classes to get ahead in their studies. 

When students return to campus this fall they will find new historical markers around campus.  These are wonderful for those who take the driving tour of Berry.  For students, it means learning the history of their beloved Alma Mater via signs, and more stops by visitors!
One of the historical markers, Cabin in the Pines

After the storms of April 2011 many trees were destroyed or damaged.  One of the beloved trees near Ford Complex held a swing. Many students have taken a break from their studies to swing beneath this tree.  Even though this tree initially survived, it became unhealthy and unstable. Today the tree was removed.
Goodbye Tree
