Good morning, Janesville.

The Boys and Girls Club of Janesville said it is ready to hold a groundbreaking and will begin construction on its new building in late spring or early summer—club officials confirmed the project will move ahead as planned.

Janesville DAR hosted a wreath laying ceremony at Traxler Park’s Vietnam War Memorial on Saturday to honor local Vietnam veterans—community members gathered to pay tribute during National Vietnam War Veterans Day.

Janesville’s Mr. Splash Car Wash is seeing fewer customers because a busy five-way intersection near its location is closed for road improvements through the summer — the project aims to improve traffic flow.

Marketing manager David Javan said the business is giving away free washes and coordinating with City officials to lessen the impact.

Earlier this month—the USDA announced it would end 2025 funding for the Local Food Purchase Assistance and Local Food for Schools programs that helped farmers deliver fresh produce to schools and pantries—local farmers say the cuts could hurt over 300 growers and disrupt access to fresh food. Many producers are now searching for new buyers as they adjust to the loss of support that helped cover more than $4 million in food supplies.
