Berea SC Community Events

Come out and support, I know coach Batson and coach Dean, and coach Lindsey, will have the best seat in the house, cheering on their bulldogs!!!! Angels in the end zone!!

It’s was about this time of the year in 2017 when the old WPA 1938 Berea High School was torn down. Below you’ll find a photo tribute or a walk down memory lane.

Let’s never forget how the Greenville County school district and county council lied to the entire Berea community when they told us they wanted to save this WPA and Beret history by selling the property to a group who also promised but never delivered.

On August 6, 2024 at 6:00 PM the Greenville County Council will be holding a special called meeting to do the third and final reading of the Capital Project Sales Tax proposed ordinance. This is the last opportunity to speak to County Council about this issue before the final vote. They absolutely must have the required public hearing this night. Please try to show up, speak, call, or email the various County Council members and let your voice be heard. This is supposed to be the only item on the agenda. We need to bombard them with our opposition, with facts, and concerns.

For the record, some of the roads that were on the City of Greenville’s 7-year road paving list published in 2023 have been put on this paving list. Why? If this was to pass, what is the City of Greenville going to do with that extra money? Wonder if they will admit the mistake they made on my road and pave it? Just one more reason to vote no.

Today marks 11 years of Remembrance Wall Classmates Berea High School - RIP! Thank you all for helping keep this community strong but above all keeping the memories of classmates no longer with us alive.

Berea High School memory

Most remember this building as Mr. Vinsons FFA classroom. Anyone have any memories of this building?

If your pets are outside tonight,
Go sit with them for a while, then decide if they should come indoors with you.
❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
Bring Your Pets Indoors !

If you are new to South don’t be freaked out because we are about to experience a “SC Winter”. This is 6 or 7 days of cold, maybe with some ice ❄️☃️and possibly some snow🌨. If Meteorologist say the word snow, and It may snow and it may not, but if they say 2 inches to us southerners it sounds like 10 or more inches it could be just 1/2”. It doesn’t matter how much ❄️ Snow it is, we’ll all freak out 🤦‍♀️ because we don’t see snow often.

The threat of snow (or ice) is your prompt to head to the grocery store and buy milk 🥛, eggs 🥚and bread 🍞. It doesn’t matter if you need these items or not you will just buy them 🤷‍♀️ (milk sandwiches🥪 anyone 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤣). It’s just what we do here in the south. Rest assured that everyone in your southern town will be there.

You’ll also need to make a mad dash for faucet covers and finding them and getting out of the store will be like an episode of the hunger games 😂 You’re in the redneck district so it’s also appropriate to wrap old rags around them. 🤷‍♀️😂🤣🤪

Don’t look for a sled. You won’t find one. In the rare chance we get enough ice or snow to sled grab some cardboard 📦 or a trash 🗑 can lid and go find the nearest hill.

Just go with it.
You’ll be fine. 😳

We don’t have equipment to handle the winter and weather. The roads will be a mess and even though the state has been telling you for a week they’re ready, they’re not and it won’t work. Just stay home if you can and if you can’t just come to terms with the fact that nobody here knows how to drive in snow and ice.

Whatever you do, DO NOT⚠️🚫 talk about snow tires or snow chains.

If you happen to slide off the road or get stuck, turn your flashers on, take a deep breath and wait. Two Dudes 🧔‍♂️👨‍🦰 in a four wheel drive truck will be along in no time to offer assistance. Don’t try to help them, they live for this stuff 😂🤪, and will do what they can to get you back on the road.

If either one of them screams “hey y’all watch this " just get back and get your phone out and start recording, you’ll probably have a viral video for TicTok later 🤷‍♀️😂

No matter what you do, don’t talk about how they did it back home in any of these scenarios.

Nobody cares.

You live in South Carolina now.
South Carolinians know they live in the greatest state in the country and it’s our way or the highway.

When we act like we’re going to die and start to complain about the 7 days of winter just shut up, we’re serious and we don’t care how much you love it.

You’ll be back in flip flops 🩴 within a week to ten days and it’ll be nice until right around Easter 🐰.

South Carolina s “second winter” will be 2 or 3 days and will hit right around Easter🐰, usually the week before or the week after. This will hit right around the time you plant flowers and a garden🍅🌽🫑🥒🫛

We know you’re not from around here when we see you’ve planted flowers before Easter and before the “second winter” has hit.

This is why all the people at the nursery don’t sound like us when you’re shopping for plants.

We know better.

During second winter it’ll go from 70 to 25 and you’ll experience all four seasons in one day.

This too shall pass, get used to it and when second winter is over you can enjoy the 3-4 Days🤪 of “spring”🌈☔️⚘️🪻 before summer gets here and it’ll be melt your face off 🥵hot until sometime around Halloween 👻🎃.

Enjoy 😉 🤷‍♀️😂

Thought this was the Reedy river downtown instead it’s the rock quarry garden where there’s usually no water.

Stay in stay safe!
