Leadership Bartlett 2026, in partnership with City of Bartlett Public Library and City of Bartlett, TN Parks & Recreation Department is excited to announce the installation of a new Story Book Trail at Mark Brown Park. The featured story will be “Ricky, the Rock That Couldn’t Roll” which is a children’s book that encourages perseverance, friendship, and inclusion.
Story Book Trails are designed to combine literacy, outdoor activity, and family engagement by placing pages of a children’s book along a walking path for families to read together as they move through the park.
Throughout the summer and into the fall, the Story Book Trail will rotate to a different Bartlett park each month.
Hit the parks and let’s get reading.
