\n\n
\nThe Market Fair Day on 4 December 2005 at the Alexander Street entrance to the Berry Showgrounds was the chosen time and place for the ceremony to mark the burial of the Berry community’s time capsule.
\n\nSealed with a concrete slab and plaque, the 1.8 metre long stainless steel cylinder represents a recording of personal messages, photos and history for the many families and individuals who purchased an envelope for their items to be placed into the time capsule.
\n\nThe time capsule was an idea of the Rotary Club of Berry-Gerringong as a community project to mark the 100th Anniversary of the founding of Rotary International.
\n\n
\n\nIn this instance however, the time capsule is intended to be opened in 25 years time – on the 4th December 2030.
\n\n
\n\nEach item in the capsule was individually vacuum sealed with all contents recorded in a ledger that is to be handed over to the Berry Museum for safekeeping.
\n\n
\n\nThe ceremony to bury the capsule was attended by members of the Rotary Club, local dignitaries, guests and notably heralded by the majestic sounds of the Shoalhaven Scottish Pipes and Drum Band.

\n\n\t
\n\n\tOne of the major community projects for the Club in recent years has been the construction of a shared pathway (the Rotary Circuit) from Pullman St to the Berry Hospital. This finally links the town with a pathway to the Hospital. No longer do people have to navigate the narrow, dangerous roadway and grassed verges to walk to the Hospital, something that friends and relatives of patients at the Hospital have been doing for years.
\n\n\t
\n\n\tThe pathway has been made possible because of various fundraising activities, including the sale of engraved pavers to members of the Berry community that were cemented into the pathway, together with the support of the State Government through the Community Building Partnership Program, and the Shoalhaven City Council.
\n\n\t
\n\n\tThe many sponsored pavers that have been laid in the pathway form a unique and lasting record of support for those people and businesses who purchased them.
