History

Mancelona Bass Festival: Part II

After a 52 year run the Mancelona Bass Festival was set to vanish during the fall of 2007.  The community and citizens of Mancelona and the surrounding areas wouldn't let that happen.  The festival was resurrected and the 53rd event took place in the summer of 2008.  While things may have been a bit different, they mainly stayed the same.  The Mancelona Bass Festival, Inc. is dedicated to keeping this local tradition alive for years to come.

A lot of people worked hard for over fifty years and we are in the long process of gathering the festival history and giving recognition to everyone that participated and prepared the festival in the past.  We hope you can help continue our rich history and become of part of it in the future.

Anyone with information about past events is asked to email any and all details to mancelonabassfestival@yahoo.com .   Thank you for your continued support of the Mancelona Bass Festival.
