City around

Welcome To Janesville, WI

The Agricultural Community of Janesville Offers Fun for One and All

The City of Janesville lies close to the south-central border of Wisconsin. John Inman and William Holmes purchased land here in the summer of 1835. Later, they were joined by Holmes brother Joshua and George Follner. The men constructed the first cabin here. More pioneers arrived during the following spring. One of the land claims was filed by Henry Janes.

The town would eventually bear his name. By the turn of the century, industries and businesses made Janesville home. Today, the community has a number of interesting places to visit including the Angel Museum, the Rock County Historical Society and the Rotary Botanical Gardens.

Things To Do

In June, the Wilson Elementary School hosts the annual Bike Rodeo. The entertaining event is designed to teach youngsters cycling safety. Youngsters ride through an obstacle course to demonstrate their skills. Concessions are provided and prizes awarded.

The community promotes family bonding during the annual Take a Kid Fishing at the Traxler Park Lagoon. The event features fishing skills demonstrations before the angling begins. Prizes are awarded for different categories. Concessions are available on site.

In July, locals and area residents make a point of attending the annual Rock Country 4-H Fair. Along with agricultural and animal exhibits, the festivities include duck and pig races, cupcake wars and a carnival. The six-day event also features ongoing live entertainment.

In August, Janesville celebrates a National Night Out outside of the Janesville Police Services Building. The event is designed to boost community spirit and strengthen the relationship between law enforcement and local residents. The festivities include police demonstrations, family-friendly games, free refreshments and a 5K race.

In the middle of August, Riverside Park North End hosts the Riverside Music Festival. Various entertainers perform live throughout the day. Guests have the chance to enter a shuffleboard tournament and learn about pickleball. A specially designated area keeps younger visitors entertained. Adults enjoy the beer and wine garden. All are welcome to feast on chicken dinners."
