    CAMP HAWK

 

August 13-15, 2012

Not to be confused with Summit, Camp Hawk is the next step in a smooth transition to Shorter University. Camp Hawk is a great opportunity for new students to experience an off-campus retreat before school starts. Make new friends, create fun memories, and enter into your first year of university with pride! Also meet staff, faculty, and student leaders who will help you feel confident as you start your life as a Shorter student.

Camp Hawk is the best way to connect with your classmates and university life at Shorter. Since Camp Hawk is serving as a component of your Shorter University experience, all freshmen are required to attend.

For more questions or more information regarding Camp Hawk, please contact Cheryl Culp at 706-233-7605.
