Bartlett Lions Dash
The Bartlett Lions Dash is the 21st annual set of community races held at James Pate Phillip State Park in Bartlett, Illinois, on Sunday, August 30, 2026. The course starts and finishes at the park and passes into the park woods.
Distances offered:
- 10K Run
- 5K Run
- 5K Walk
- Kids & Family Dash: 100 yard dash and 1/4 mile
The event supports Bartlett Lions fundraising for local community needs. Early bird 5K and 10K registrants are guaranteed a moisture-wicking shirt in their requested size; children registered for any kids dash or requesting child-size shirts for the 5K or 10K receive cotton shirts while supplies last. Shirts may also be available with race day registration. There will be no pre-race-day packet pick up. Portable restroom facilities will be on site.
Awards are given to overall male and female winners for the 5K and 10K and to the top three in each age group for both genders: 12 and under, 13-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, and 60 and over. Each Kids & Family Dash finisher receives a participation medal and all finishers receive ribbons.
A Team Challenge accepts teams of four or more; trophies are awarded for largest and fastest teams. Teams must be registered before the race begins. Online registration is available until Saturday, August 23, and race day registration is also offered with an increased fee. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
