We look forward to seeing everyone in 2023.

Make plans now to be a part of the 2023 Bartlett Festival

This fun-filled family event will kick-off on Friday evening with  live musical entertainment starting at 6:00 p.m.

The Judge Freeman Marr Panther Pride 5k run will kick things off at 8:00 am on Saturday morning, followed by some great local music, arts & crafts, a car show, children’s activities, the awards for the MBN sanctioned BBQ cooking contest, concessions and much, much more. The perfect place to spend an autumn weekend.   

The Freeman Marr 5K is for runners and walkers of all ages and experience levels.  From the runner or walker looking to finish their first 5K to the avid runner looking for a new fun race.  So make plans to come participate and support Bartlett High Athletics.
