The Society continues to develop a variety of programs
for member and public presentation. We appreciate
specific requests and/or suggestions for the programs
from all members and Bartlett residents. Please let us
know of individuals with collections, and/or information
of historical nature, who may be willing to do a
presentation. As we begin to collect donations and to
build a research library, we want to make the collection
available to the public, and we are seeking volunteers
to keep the office open each Saturday from 12noon-
2pm. The “Life, Legends and Lore - Village Voices”
program is scheduled to continue throughout the year
and the conversations will include folks from Glen and
Intervale, as well as Bartlett Village. Again, this is an
ambitious project which will require volunteers
throughout the town to insure its success. The Bartlett
Village mapping project is ongoing and will include
collecting old photos and data for homes which were
located there in 1900. A “History of …” program has
been started. This program entails the research of
subjects pertaining to Bartlett history and events. The
first program of conversations and research will begin
with the history of skiing. Other suggestions have been:
documenting the various schoolhouses, manufacturing
and the places of worship. We appreciate any
volunteers and/or information for these programs.
We hope others will find the Society's activities
interesting and will join our membership. Each project
and program will be the better for the participation of
many. We recognized that with each step forward, and
each new activity in which we become involved, our
expenses will increase. The membership dues are the
financial foundation for our society and, as always,
donations for special projects and toward the increasing
operating expenses are gratefully accepted.

Bartlett History Challenge:
The hotels, inns, taverns, cottages and cabins of Bartlett
Our theme for this quarter seems to have evolved around the
lodging accommodations of the 19th and 20th centuries in the
villages of Bartlett (the villages were previously known as Lower
Bartlett, Bartlett Center and Upper Bartlett). To the right is a
list of the names given to 43 of those establishments.
The challenge is two-part. The first part is to locate which
village each was/is located. The second part is to name the
specific location of the building within the village; i.e., the Glen
railroad station was/is located at the end of Station Street in
Glen. Good luck all.
