On Sunday, Dec. 6, Bartlett lit the annual Christmas tree. The beautiful balsam fir tree was donated by Pat Quinn and Brad Arnold of Bartlett. The tree was planted by them about 15 years ago, from a tree they found in the forest. What a beautiful tree it is. The event was streamed live on the Bartlett Rec Bara Facebook page for those who wanted to remain home in the warmth of their own home, thanks to Mary Miller for streaming it live for us.
With COVID, the tree lighting took on a different look this year. There was no band or chorus performances at the school prior, no Santa and no cookies or hot chocolate. But we did have Summit, her handler and cart giving Santa a ride. Summit is a Bernese Mountain Dog owned by Lynn Jones of Bartlett. They are a great addition to our annual tree lighting.
